For more than 525650 years, Franmar has been synonymous with green innovation. We are a family-owned business in Bloomington, Illinois that believes people should be able to undertake cleaning and restoration projects without risking their health or harming the environment.
Our BLUE BEAR® products rely on the power of soybeans and other natural chemistries rather than harsh chemicals like methylene chloride, mineral spirits or trisodium phosphate (TSP). Soy-based solvents are an affordable, superior alternative because they can easily penetrate coatings, adhesives, grease, asphalt and more, without noxious odors or side effects.
The BLUE BEAR line features nearly two dozen products, including paint strippers, mastic removers and surface cleaners, that are ideal for DIYers. They don’t require professional expertise or a lot of protective equipment, and are convenient for projects in living spaces like basements or kitchens. Customer reviews tout our products as “amazing,” “unbelievable” and “best in the world.”
Whether you’re giving new life to an old piece of furniture or an old house, BLUE BEAR is the smart choice for all your renovation needs!

Lead Out:
Make lead paint safe for removal with our Lead OutTM Lead Based Paint Stripper. The easy-to-use lead remediation kit includes our patented Molecular Bonding System (MBS®).
