Bear Paw Hand Cleaner Pump

About Bear Paw Hand Cleaner

When it comes to serious grime, not all hand cleaners are created equal. Bear Paw is an American-made brand with a singular, focused mission: to deliver a hand cleaner powerful enough for the toughest industrial jobs, yet safe and gentle enough for everyday home use. Made in the USA, Bear Paw has earned loyal fans across a wide spectrum of trades and industries by doing one thing exceptionally well.

A Cleaner Built for Hard-Working Hands

What sets Bear Paw apart from conventional hand cleaners is its petroleum-free, non-toxic, and non-hazardous formula. Many industrial-strength cleaners rely on harsh solvents or petroleum distillates to cut through grease — and while those ingredients can be effective, they come with real drawbacks: skin irritation, harmful fumes, and plumbing damage from residue buildup. Bear Paw takes a different approach. Its hand cleaners are water-activated, meaning they break down contaminants and rinse away cleanly — helping to keep sinks and drains free of the greasy buildup that solvent-based cleaners leave behind.

The cleaning power, however, is anything but gentle on grime. Bear Paw's deep-cleaning action tackles dirt, grease, paint, ink, tar, adhesives, varnish, and virtually anything else that ends up on hard-working hands. Whether you're a mechanic who just finished an engine rebuild, a welder covered in metal shavings, or a painter dealing with dried pigments, Bear Paw is designed to get the job done without punishing your skin in the process.

Trusted Across Industries

Bear Paw hand cleaners are used across a remarkable range of industries — automotive, airline, marine, railroad, printing, mining, and jewelry, among many others. Pressmen, pavers, mechanics, welders, grounds crews, and farmers all count on it. Yet its gentle formula also makes it a natural fit for home garages, garden sheds, and DIY workshops. The same tub sitting in a professional shop can safely sit next to a kitchen sink — a versatility few industrial cleaners can claim.

Simple, Responsible Chemistry

Bear Paw's formula contains no lanolin, no added oils, and no harsh chemicals, which means hands come out clean without that heavy, coated feeling left behind by many waterless hand cleaners. Because it is petroleum-free by design, it is a more environmentally responsible choice for shops, fleets, and facilities looking to reduce their chemical footprint without sacrificing cleaning performance. Available in multiple sizes — from convenient 12 oz. jars to larger 40 oz. tubs — Bear Paw scales easily from personal use to professional shop supply.

Made in the USA

In an era when manufacturing origin is increasingly important to buyers, Bear Paw's domestic production is a point of pride. American-made and independently focused, the brand has built its reputation not on marketing dollars, but on a formula that simply works — earning repeat customers in some of the most demanding environments imaginable.
