Sagrotan Soft on Skin Liquid Soap

Sagrotan is Germany's leading brand for disinfection and hygienic products, originally developed in 1913 by Schülke & Mayr in Hamburg. The product shown is a 250ml variant of their liquid soap range, which is often marketed as 'Sanft zur Haut' (Soft on Skin) to combine antibacterial protection with dermatological care. While the brand has deep German roots and its European headquarters are in Heidelberg, the manufacturing for specific components or product lines — as indicated on the label — often takes place in countries like Indonesia to leverage global supply chains.

Today, the brand is owned by Reckitt Benckiser (now known simply as Reckitt), a British multinational consumer goods giant. Reckitt manages Sagrotan as part of its global health and hygiene portfolio, which includes similar sister brands like Dettol (used in the UK and Commonwealth/Asia) and Lysol (used in North America). The ownership remains internationally centralized in the United Kingdom, with Reckitt Benckiser Deutschland GmbH handling local distribution and management within the DACH region.
