Meet The Team

Everyone knows the genius behind one of the world’s most iconic tech brands, Apple. But how many of us know Steve Jobs' rather peculiar habit? Jobs believed that daily showers and using chemical-laden deodorants and soaps could disrupt his body's natural biome by stripping away beneficial bacteria, and, in turn, weakening his body's natural defenses. While this might sound unhygienic and downright strange to most, this very quirk sparked my curiosity and inspired me to dive deeper into the world of natural biomes and how we can protect them with microbial solutions.
​
This is how Odo-Rite came into being. Thanks to cutting-edge biotechnology, we develop water-based, chlorine-free, non-toxic cleaners that neutralize odor-causing bacteria at the source, without disrupting the beneficial bacteria. The result? A safe, chemical-free home that stays fresh without disturbing your home’s natural bacterial balance.
​
And the best part? Our products are pet-friendly too! With Odo-Rite, you can relax, knowing your home is not only clean but also safe for your furry friends.

After a long day, there's nothing quite like the comfort of walking into a cozy, inviting home. But imagine the frustration of being greeted by unpleasant odors instead. Most of us would instinctively reach for an air freshener, but did you know that traditional fresheners only cover up bad smells rather than eliminate them?
​
With my broad experience in the paint and chemical industry, I’m familiar with the toxic ingredients commonly found in air fresheners. Not only are they harmful to breathe in, but they also don’t actually solve the problem. You don’t want a putrid mixture of synthetic fragrances and bad smells — you want those unpleasant odors gone altogether.
​
With Odo-Rite, we’re cleaning up more than just your home—we’re cleaning up the future. Our non-toxic formulas don’t mess with nature; they just eliminate the odor-causing bacteria, leaving the rest of the ecosystem untouched. Odo-Rite isn’t just a brand; it’s a smarter, fresher approach to living.
