Carex Complete Hand Wash

Carex is a pioneering brand in the hand hygiene market, recognized as the first to introduce liquid antibacterial hand wash and hand gel sanitizers to the United Kingdom in 1994. The brand was developed to address the growing consumer need for effective yet skin-kind antibacterial solutions, quickly becoming the UK's leading hand wash brand. Its 'Complete' range is specifically designed to clean, care, and protect, utilizing advanced formulations that support the skin's natural barrier while eliminating 99.9% of bacteria.

Manufacturing of Carex products primarily takes place in the United Kingdom, specifically at the company's dedicated production facilities in Manchester. However, due to its significant global footprint across Europe, Africa, and Asia, some regional production occurs to meet local market demands. The brand is owned by PZ Cussons, a prominent British consumer goods company with a history dating back to 1884. PZ Cussons has maintained ownership of Carex since its inception, integrating it into a diverse portfolio of well-known personal care and home care brands. As of 2026, PZ Cussons continues to manage the brand's global strategy from its headquarters in Manchester, focusing on sustainability and innovation in hygiene.
