Aquafresh is a global oral healthcare brand recognized for its iconic striped toothpaste, which traditionally represents fresh breath, healthy gums, and strong teeth. Originally launched in the United Kingdom in 1973, it was developed by the Beecham Group as the first striped toothpaste on the market.

Over the decades, the brand has transitioned through various corporate mergers from Beecham to SmithKline Beecham, and eventually to GlaxoSmithKline (GSK). In 2022, GSK spun off its consumer healthcare division into a new independent company called Haleon. Today, Haleon is the ultimate owner of the brand and oversees its global distribution.

Manufacturing for Aquafresh occurs in several international locations to serve different regional markets. Some of the primary production facilities are located in the United Kingdom and Slovakia (specifically Levice), though production can vary based on the specific SKU and target marketplace.
