Do cleaning products expire?

Do cleaning products expire? In short: yes, cleaning products can expire. "Like many products purchased at the grocery store, cleaning products can degrade over time," says Brian Sansoni, senior vice president of communications, outreach & membership at the American Cleaning Institute (ACI).

Do you think cleaning products will still work even after its expiration date?

Cleaning products are more likely to lose their potency than actually spoil. "The efficacy of cleaning products can degrade over long durations, the exact timing of which will depend on the formulation," Reed explains. For example, bleach will begin to go bad between six months to a year after you've opened it.
