In the 30's, dental impression cement was one of the toughest problems to remove. Many had attempted unsuccessfully to accomplish this.

In 1932, Edwin Lloyd Ackerman, a chemist and father-in-law of Al Farnsworth (founder of ORANGE-SOL), was blending a batch of impression cement. As he stopped for lunch and began to peel an orange, Inventor Ackerman noticed the resins dissolving from his hands. After much research and sourcing of the highest quality components, the first formulation of Orange Solvent was born...and with this, so began the birth of Citrus Cleaning Technology.

Upon Ackerman's death in the mid-seventies, ORANGE-SOLVENT continued and an improved, more versatile version, De-Solv-it®, was launched. Millions of bottles later, De-Solv-it® remains the top International performer on a host of specialty applications including crayon, gum, candle wax, oil, grease and more.

Today, The ORANGE-SOL Group's citrus technology spans thousands of safer and proven applications in Household, Industrial, Medical and International markets with recognized leaders in their respective industries.
