The Household and Commercial Products Association (HCPA) is the premier trade association representing companies that make and sell $180 billion annually of products used for cleaning, protecting, maintaining, and disinfecting in homes and commercial environments. HCPA members employ 200,000 people in the U.S. whose work helps consumers and workers create a cleaner, healthier and more productive life. Our mission is to protect, promote and enhance the household and commercial products industry and the consumers and workers who use our members’ products.

Issues

  • Air Quality

    Restrictions on consumer product ingredients, justified by flawed and misinterpreted air quality research, threaten the formulas of safe and popular products.

  • Chemical Safety

    Consumer products and their ingredients are thoroughly evaluated for human and environmental safety by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

  • Ingredient Communication

    Communicating useful product ingredient information to consumers and workers allows them to safely use formulated products every day at home and work.

  • Pesticide Regulations

    Manufacturers rely on fair and effective regulatory processes at the state and federal level for reviewing and registering consumer pesticide products

  • Product Lifecycle

    Proposed U.S. legislation would require manufacturer responsibility for end-of-lifecycle disposal of consumer product packaging and household hazardous waste.

  • Retailer Engagement

    Manufacturers are collaborating with retailers to increase communication with consumers, respond to new trends, and comply with new retailer requirements.
