Sometimes the best ideas come from happy accidents. Wicked Strong was born in Portland, Maine, out of Maine Standard Biofuels’ work making renewable fuel.
When making biodiesel, a natural by-product called glycerin is left behind. One day, after a small spill, the team realized that this leftover actually cut through grease and grime better than most commercial cleaners — without the toxic chemicals.
Instead of tossing it away, they leaned into the discovery. After testing, refining, and adding all-natural ingredients, Wicked Strong was created: a line of cleaners tough enough for professional kitchens, yet safe enough for homes.
Today, every bottle of Wicked Strong:
- Upcycles waste from biodiesel production
- Keeps harmful chemicals out of homes and waterways
- Supports local jobs right here in Maine
By choosing Wicked Strong, you’re not just cleaning your kitchen — you’re helping reduce waste, support renewable energy, and protect the planet.
It’s proof that sustainability and strength can go hand in hand. And in true Maine fashion, we think that’s wicked good.
