Dettol is a globally recognized brand in the hygiene and cleaning sector, widely known for its antiseptic and antibacterial properties. Originally developed in the United Kingdom in the early 1930s, the brand was first used in hospitals for cleaning the skin during surgical procedures. It has since expanded its product portfolio to include household surface sprays, laundry sanitizers, and hand hygiene products.

Today, the brand is owned by the British multinational consumer goods company Reckitt (formerly Reckitt Benckiser). While the brand's heritage is firmly rooted in the UK, manufacturing for Dettol products is highly decentralized to serve local markets efficiently. Production occurs in multiple countries, including the United Kingdom, India, Australia, and various regions across Europe and Asia, depending on the specific product line and regional distribution requirements. In Australia and New Zealand, the products are managed by RB Health (Australia) Pty Ltd, a local subsidiary of the global parent company.
