Airwaves Lime & Ginger chewing gum

Airwaves is a popular brand of sugar-free chewing gum known for its intense menthol and eucalyptus flavors, designed to provide a clearing sensation. The brand was originally launched by the Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company, an American confectioner founded in Chicago in 1891. While the brand has deep American roots, it has become a staple in European and Asian markets. Manufacturing for Airwaves products occurs globally, with significant production facilities in France and Poland serving the European market.

In 2008, the Wrigley company was acquired by Mars, Incorporated, a global giant in the confectionery and pet care industries. This merger brought iconic brands like Airwaves under the Mars Wrigley umbrella. Today, Airwaves remains a flagship product within the Mars portfolio, maintaining its reputation for functional, breath-freshening confectionery. The ultimate ownership lies with the Mars family, making Mars, Inc. one of the largest privately held companies in the United States.
