Lysol is a globally recognized brand in the hygiene and cleaning sector, particularly known for its range of disinfectant products. The brand was originally established in Germany in 1889 by Gustav Raupenstrauch to help combat a cholera epidemic. Over the decades, it evolved from a pharmaceutical antiseptic to a household cleaning staple.
Today, Lysol is owned by Reckitt (formerly Reckitt Benckiser), a British multinational consumer goods company. While the brand has its roots in Germany and significant historical growth in the United States under Lehn & Fink and later Sterling Drug, it is now part of a UK-based conglomerate. Manufacturing for Lysol products takes place in multiple countries worldwide, including the United States, Poland, and China, to serve various regional markets effectively.
