Palmolive Glicerina Bar Soap

Palmolive is a historic brand within the household and personal care sector, originally founded in the United States. Its name is a combination of its two primary original ingredients: palm oil and olive oil. The brand gained global prominence following the merger of the Palmolive Company with the Peet Brothers in 1926, and a subsequent merger with the Colgate Company in 1928.

Today, Palmolive is a core brand of the Colgate-Palmolive Company, a multinational consumer products giant headquartered in New York. While the brand has American roots, its manufacturing is highly globalized. For the European market, including Portugal and Italy (as indicated by the bilingual 'mais glicerina • più glicerina' packaging), products are frequently manufactured in Turkey or Poland to serve the EMEA region. The brand remains a staple in the hygiene market, known for its extensive range of soaps, shower gels, and shampoos.
