Listerine Total Care Stay White mouthwash

Listerine is a globally recognized brand of antiseptic mouthwash with a history dating back to the late 19th century. Originally formulated by Dr. Joseph Lawrence and Jordan Wheat Lambert in the United States, it was named after Sir Joseph Lister, a pioneer in antiseptic surgery. The brand was initially marketed by the Lambert Pharmacal Company.

Over the decades, ownership transitioned through several major corporate mergers and acquisitions, moving from Warner-Lambert to Pfizer, and then to Johnson & Johnson. In a significant recent corporate restructuring, Johnson & Johnson spun off its consumer health division into a new, independent entity called Kenvue. As of 2024 and beyond, Kenvue is the ultimate owner and operator of the Listerine brand.

Manufacturing for Listerine products occurs in multiple locations worldwide to serve regional markets. Significant production facilities are located in countries such as Italy, the United States, Thailand, and Brazil, ensuring a global supply chain for this essential oral hygiene product.
