About JL Products LLC

JL Products LLC is a veteran and family-owned business based in the Birmingham, AL area, specializing in high-quality calcium hypochlorite (Cal Hypo) for pool sanitation and water purification. We named our company in honor of our father and grandfather, John Lawrence Woods—a man whose legacy inspires our commitment to integrity, service, and public health.

Our company was born around the kitchen table, where a conversation about chemical shortages in the pool industry sparked a new direction. At the time, we were supplying hand sanitizers and industrial chemicals—but when our sister pointed out the growing demand for Cal Hypo, we saw an opportunity to serve both families and communities. Through research and field experience, we confirmed that Cal Hypo is a powerful solution for eliminating bacteria and algae in swimming pools, keeping water crystal clear and safe. We also discovered its critical role in municipal water treatment systems, where it helps purify drinking water for thousands of households.
