  "They (cleaners) do the job and they do it quite well," said Bill Lafield, vice president of communications for the Consumer Specialty Products Association.

  Lafield said studies like WVE's don't consider how important the products are to cleaning up real health hazards, such as mold, mildew and cockroach droppings.
  
  "These products do provide huge health benefits.Maybe in the home we're not as aware of them, but if you go into a restaurant, you certainly want to make sure their kitchen is clean and the table is disinfected," he said.
  
  He said before products ever appear on a grocery shelf, manufacturers make sure the cleaners are safe.They collectively spend tens of millions of dollars a year doing so.Consumers ultimately choose, and Lafield said he doesn't want them shying away from helpful cleaners.
  ...
  We haven't come out and opposed it," Lafield said.
  
  He said the complicated ingredient names can make labeling difficult and sometimes even meaningless to a typical consumer.However, after much work, the cosmetics industry came up with a way to label items and he said cleaning manufacturers will work with California to see if they can find a meaningful way to do the same.

  Bill Lafield, a spokesman for the industry group that represents makers of products like household cleaners, disinfectants and air fresheners, said the products are not dangerous.The Consumer Specialty Products Association represents 260 businesses.
  
  "We don't think that the products, when they're used properly, cause a risk to consumers," Lafield said.
  
  Air fresheners "do contribute to the quality of life.Fragrances have been used for centuries, dating back to when the Chinese and the Egyptians used incense and fragrant oils.They obviously have a value, or consumers wouldn't buy them," he said.
  
  Lafield's trade group said in a statement Wednesday that the products on the market undergo extensive testing to meet or exceed the standards and regulations set by government agencies.
