Sun is a historic detergent brand with a complex international history. While the Sun brand name is owned by Unilever in many global markets, the specific 'Powerball' technology is the signature feature of the brand Finish, which is owned by Reckitt. In certain regions, particularly across Europe, licensing and historical brand acquisitions have led to these names being closely associated or appearing on similar product lines.
Today, these high-performance dishwashing products are manufactured in various facilities across Europe and North America to meet global demand. Reckitt, the ultimate owner of the Finish Powerball technology, is a British multinational consumer goods company that has expanded the brand from its 1950s American roots into a dominant global player in the specialized cleaning hygiene sector.
Ownership of the 'Sun' trademark itself remains primarily with Unilever, though the specific 'Powerball' marketing and technology are intellectual properties of Reckitt. This creates a landscape where manufacturing origins vary depending on the local market and the specific corporate entity responsible for distribution in that region.
