elmex Dentifrice Enfant (2–6 ans)

ownerColgate-Palmolive Company (USA)
originSchweiz
manufacturedPrimarily in Poland, but also produced in other locations

Identification

The product is elmex Dentifrice Enfant for ages 2–6 (children's anti‑caries toothpaste) — the elmex logo and the age range "2–6 Ans / Jaar" printed on the tube identify it as the junior/children formulation of elmex. (en.wikipedia.org)

Manufacturing & distribution

Elmex originated in Switzerland but production has been consolidated in European facilities; since Colgate’s integration of GABA, many elmex lines (including tubes sold across EU markets) are manufactured in Poland while distribution and manufacturing can span multiple European sites. Therefore the product is primarily made in Poland today, though elmex products are produced in several countries for different markets. (blick.ch)

Brand origin & ownership

Elmex was developed by the Swiss company GABA (GABA International AG) and launched in the 1960s; GABA and its elmex portfolio were later acquired by Colgate‑Palmolive in the early 2000s. Colgate‑Palmolive is the ultimate owner and markets elmex globally while GABA remains the European operating unit for the brand. (en.wikipedia.org)

Practical note

The tube in the photo matches common elmex pediatric packaging sold in French‑language markets. No visible barcode was shown in the image, so a manufacturer lot/code lookup was not possible from this photo. (fr.wikipedia.org)
