Mentos CleanBreath Mints are a sugar-free confectionery product designed to provide long-lasting fresh breath. The Mentos brand has a rich history, originally created in the Netherlands during the 1930s by brothers Michael and Pierre van Melle. Over the decades, it has evolved from a simple mint candy into a global powerhouse known for its chewy dragees, gums, and hard mints.

The manufacturing of Mentos products occurs in various facilities globally to meet localized demand, with primary production hubs in Europe and Asia. The brand is managed under the umbrella of Perfetti Van Melle, a massive multinational corporation formed in 2001 after the merger of the Italian Perfetti Group and the Dutch Van Melle company. Today, Perfetti Van Melle stands as one of the world's largest confectionery manufacturers, maintaining its headquarters in both Italy and the Netherlands, ensuring the legacy of the Mentos brand continues through innovation and wide-reaching distribution networks.
