Amyris Expands Distribution of Muck Daddy

Amyris, Inc. AMRS, the industrial bioscience company, today announced that Denver-based Adam's Polishes (www.adamspolishes.com) has launched a hand cleaner co-branded with Amyris's high-performance cleaning product line, Muck Daddy™ (www.muckdaddy.com), within its catalog of premium auto detailing products. This is the first and only hand cleaner Adam's Polishes is offering to its customers, backed by the company's 110% money-back guarantee. After evaluating many products, Adam's found that the Muck Daddy hand cleaner formula, containing Amyris's proprietary bio-based solvent Myralene™10, provided exceptional cleaning performance against wax, oil, and chemicals used in auto detailing, without the strong smell and harshness of other heavy-duty hand cleaners. In addition, Muck Daddy incorporates Amyris's luxurious skincare ingredient, squalane, which moisturizes hands and leaves them smoother, softer, and looking less cracked. The exclusive pairing of these sustainable, bio-based ingredients provides both the excellent performance and positive user experience desired by Adam's Polishes' customers. "Adam's Polishes is excited to partner with the Muck Daddy team to provide the best hand cleaner we have ever encountered," said Adam Pitale, CEO & Founder of Adam's Polishes. "Our customers spend hours in the garage removing every speck of dust and dirt from their vehicles just to be left with dirty hands. Thanks to Muck Daddy, we can finally answer the question, 'Now that your car is clean…what are we going to do about you?'" "The Muck Daddy brand of cleaning products is a showcase for two of Amyris's high-performance ingredients – grease-cutting Myralene™10 and our skin-conditioning squalane," said Jason Voogt, Vice President, Performance Materials, at Amyris. "We are proud to supply this technology to industry-leading companies like Adam's Polishes through custom formulations, private label, and co-branded products." Continued Voogt, "We are very pleased to work with companies seeking to differentiate their products from the mass-marketed, commodity-type cleaning products. Along with our direct sales efforts, we're expanding the market for Muck Daddy by continuing to establish product partnerships with leading brands to offer their customers some of the best products that are better for our planet."
