From Glass to Plastic

The conversion to white, polyethylene plastic bottles used today began in 1960, and perhaps was the most significant change of all. By 1962, this container had completely replaced the amber glass bottle because plastic is safer, lighter, easier to handle, and allows greater design flexibility.

Plastic Bleach Bottle
In addition to numerous bottle changes over the years, Clorox's manufacturing process has been improved many times to tailor performance to modern needs. However, the consistently high quality of the product itself has left little room for dramatic revision of is basic formulation.
This guide has been prepared purely as an aid for collectors wishing to determine the vintage of early Clorox bleach bottles.
The Clorox Company sets no value on these bottles, nor does it wish to purchase old bleach bottles.
