Andrex is one of the most iconic British household brands, primarily known for its high-quality toilet paper. The brand was first launched in 1942 by the St. Andrew Mills Paper Mill in Walthamstow, London. It famously introduced the concept of two-ply toilet tissue to the British market and later became synonymous with the adorable Labrador Retriever puppy used in its advertising since 1972.

Today, the brand is manufactured primarily in the United Kingdom at facilities like the Northfleet mill in Kent. The production focuses on sustainability, using responsibly sourced fibers to create their unique textured rolls.

Andrex is currently owned by Kimberly-Clark, an American multinational personal care corporation. While the brand maintains a strong British identity and dedicated local manufacturing, its strategic direction and global ownership reside in the United States, where Kimberly-Clark is headquartered.
