Biofriendly was founded with the express
purpose of solving the world’s air quality prob-
lems. To that end, the company introduced
Green Plus® smog reducer to the market. Twenty
years later, Green Plus has cleaned over 12.5bn
gallons of fuel and removed enough pollution
to take the equivalent of a 200-mile (322-km)
lineup of cars off the road every year. Biofriendly
continues its commitment to reducing air pol-
lution worldwide, but has expanded its purpose
toward green education, investment and envi-
ronmental solutions for the future of the planet.
