Swarfega upgrades hand cleaner

Swarfega upgrades hand cleaner

Swarfega has announced the start of a new chapter, as it undergoes a rebrand to carry on its legacy of protection. 


It’s fair to say that Swarfega has a place far closer to mechanics’ hearts than would normally be expected of a hand cleaner. But the satisfyingly green jelly has been making short work of greasy hands for years (since 1947 in fact) and can surely be found by sinks, in drawers and on shelves in most garages up and down the country.

Now, Swarfega Original is getting an upgrade – and you’re going to want to know about it.

For generations, Swarfega Original has been the secret weapon for tradespeople. Battling grease, grime and the worst muck imaginable, it’s helped the hard-working tradespeople of the UK scrub up after the toughest shifts to leave a green legacy on sink edges up and down the country. But the time has come for a changing of the guard. That’s right – Swarfega Original, the jar of green jelly that rings when it’s tapped and has that distinctive citrus smell, is officially hanging up its gloves.

But fear not: this isn’t goodbye, it’s just the start of the next chapter.

The Swarfega brand is still very much here. The same guts, the same grit from the brand that’s returned hands back to sandwich-handling ready since 1947.

Because even legends need a bit of a spruceup now and then, a new Swarfega range is being launched to carry on the legacy with unbeatable power and protection.

Built for hands that keep the world working

Swarfega is known as the brand for hardworking hands. It’s seen everything – through the oil and the grit. Now, this cultclassic brand is getting a fresh new look with Swarfega Orange stepping into the limelight – all without compromising on the power and quality that has become associated with the Swarfega brand.

The Swarfega brand isn’t just a hand cleaner – it’s a full-scale skin defence system. Protecting, cleaning and restoring for hardworking hands. The new line up is simple, effective and built around a clear three-step process:

  • Barrier creams – prepping hands for action.
  • Heavy-duty cleansers and wipes – to tackle dirt, fast.
  • Moisturisers – helping hands bounce back and be ready for tomorrow.

The refreshed design brings a cleaner packaging that utilises pump bottles instead of tubs, bold colour codes, on-the-go and dispenser options that cut mess, boost hygiene and help protect hardworking skin. It’s everything you need, nothing you don’t. The new 1 litre and 5 litre Orange and Extreme products are available now, with more skin products coming in 2026.
