by Brianna Crandall — May 18, 2015—For the next three years beginning this 2015 playoff season, The Libman Company takes on the role of “official hardwood floor care provider of the Atlanta Hawks” National Basketball Association (NBA) professional basketball organization. Libman, a 119-year old manufacturer of cleaning tools including heavy-duty mops, says it will help to keep the court in tip-top shape.
The sponsorship features Libman on-court signage including the goal pads, the electronic sign over the basket, the scorer’s table signage, and in the game program books. Libman will also supply the mops for the courts as well as branded attire for the mopping crews.
The Illinois-based Libman Company is a family-owned company that has been making innovative, quality cleaning tools since 1896. The company manufactures products from brooms and mops to more specialized tools for kitchen and bathroom cleaning and industrial uses. Libman proudly manufactures most of its products in the United States, including the company’s well-known Wonder Mop.
The Libman Company says it is committed to environmental sustainability in its products, using 95% recycled plastic in its broom fibers, up to 70% recycled steel in its mop and broom handles, eco-friendly materials for product packaging, “little to no chemicals” in its cleaning products, and reusable mop heads, as well as in its operations, including an extensive recycling program, exploring renewable energy source options, and constantly working towards optimizing the efficiency of its manufacturing processes.
