Dettol is a world-renowned hygiene brand that trace its origins back to the United Kingdom in the early 20th century. First formulated in 1929 and launched in 1933, the brand was originally created by Albert Leopold Reckitt and Dr. William Colebrook Reynolds. It was initially used in hospital settings to prevent sepsis in women after childbirth, representing a major breakthrough in antiseptic science.

Today, Dettol is a cornerstone brand for the British multinational consumer goods company Reckitt (formerly Reckitt Benckiser). The brand has expanded from its iconic brown antiseptic liquid into a vast array of home cleaning and personal care products, including the Multi-Surface Spray pictured. Ownership remains with Reckitt, which is headquartered in Slough, United Kingdom, and serves over 180 countries globally.

While the brand has its roots and primary headquarters in the UK, manufacturing for Dettol products takes place in multiple countries to serve local and regional markets. For the UK market, major distribution and manufacturing support are often localized through facilities in the UK and Ireland, but global supply chains mean the product can be produced in various international locations depending on where it is sold.
