Dettol

Helping protect against illness causing germs for over 80 years. Dettol was founded in Britain in 1933 and originally used in hospitals as an antiseptic for mothers who had just given birth and for patients coming out of operations and surgery. At this point in history, undergoing surgery or catching infections could be deadly. After Dettol began to be used in healthcare settings, the incidence of catching sepsis fell by 50%. Today, Dettol cleaning products are an everyday essential, used across various industries, and are known for their transparent, simple ingredients, which are safe and effective against germs.

Dettol antiseptic liquid was introduced to consumers globally during 1935-1939 and went on to become the brand’s most iconic product. By 1958, Dettol had launched a range of cleaning products available in supermarkets and stores, which marked a shift to household use. By 1979, they had bought out a range of surface cleaners, soaps and personal hygiene products. From this point to today, Dettol has continued to grow as a brand, including multi surface sprays and wipes, alcohol based sanitisers and personal care products. Offering reliable care with products you can trust, the brand has a presence in over 124 countries.
