Henkel
Henkel AG & Company, KGaA is a German multinational company active both in the consumer and industrial sector. Founded in 1876, the Düsseldorf based company is organized into three globally operating business units: Laundry & Home Care, Beauty Care, and Adhesive Technologies. The company holds leading positions with its three business units in both industrial and consumer businesses thanks to strong brands, innovations and technologies such as Persil, Schwarzkopf, and Loctite.
History[edit | edit source]
Henkel was founded in 1876 by Fritz Henkel in Aachen, Germany. The company's first product was a laundry detergent based on sodium silicate, named "Universal-Waschmittel" (universal detergent). In the following decades, Henkel expanded its business and entered new markets - in 1883, it launched its first toilet soap, and in 1893, Henkel started to sell its products abroad.
