Huh? I don't understand what you are trying to say here.
In which way do you use the term "prime factor product"?
If you're referring the value of the product, 1 is a perfectly legitimate
value, that of the empty product.
If you're referring the expression \prod_{i \in I}p_i, that doesn't contain 1.
So out of where shall "it" (I think that refers to 1, does it?) be chased?
And what has that to do with breaking monoids?
