The Libman Company is an American privately-held company that manufactures cleaning supplies, such as brooms, mops, toilet brushes, sponges, and various other household cleaning equipment. Libman is a market leader in the traditional cleaning tools segment.[1] The company was established in 1896 in Chicago, Illinois by William Libman and has remained family-owned and operated.[1] Its headquarters is currently located in Arcola, Illinois, where it employs 700 people at its facility.[2][3] The company is notable for being one of the last-remaining manufacturers of corn brooms, as well as for internally manufacturing their own product components.[4]
