Chemist David Mayron built The Lab in Hatfield, PA after he retired from Smith Kline. The Jao line was launched and according to Gale this is how it happened:
I had had this idea of keeping my hands clean while on the job and in 1995 I asked dad one day while on the back porch, "How can I wash my hands while on the go?" "Gelled Alcohol" was his reply. Well, that wasn't as interesting as I would have liked, so I got to thinking, did a little research...anyway here we are 13 years later, on the market since 1997. Jao Hand Refresher is the best Hand Sanitizer you will ever use, bar none...Know why? Cause we didn't try and copy those other cheap brands...we were developing this before they hit the consumer market so we've never used 'em. Jao Hand Refresher is totally original, natural and delightful. You will love it...
