Most important with maintenance products is to minimize on the burden of cleaning. Your home full of shining furniture is just a whistle away with Ça-va-seul. Cleaning with Hoover appliances goes so fast, the brand and free time are almost synonymous.
Speed and convenience is one thing, but we want the place spotless after the mopping. Vigor answers this requirement: it will dash away every blot (no '+', 'extra' nor 'vitamins' needed).

Ça-va-seul

Ça-va-seul was born in Diksmuide (Belgium) when G. Bouquey experi­mented with cleaning products and shoe wax. That was in the 1880s. In the 1920s production moved to Vilvoorde (near Brussels) and a second plant some years later in the North of France. After several take-overs the brand eventually became Reckitt Benckiser's in 2001 and production moved to France.
