Company Overview

About Clorox

Clorox Company is an Oakland, California-based multinational consumer goods company — listed on NYSE (NYSE: CLX) — manufacturing and marketing cleaning, disinfecting, and household products under the Clorox, Pine-Sol, Glad, Hidden Valley, Burt's Bees, and Brita brands across 100+ countries, generating $7.1 billion in revenue in fiscal year 2024. Founded in 1913 (as Electro-Alkaline Company) and known primarily for bleach-based cleaning and disinfecting products, Clorox diversified through decades of brand acquisitions into food (Hidden Valley Ranch), natural personal care (Burt's Bees), water filtration (Brita), bags and wraps (Glad), and professional cleaning (Clorox Pro).

Business Model & Competitive Advantage

Clorox's core cleaning portfolio holds dominant positions in the US bleach market (Clorox bleach has 60%+ US market share) and disinfecting wipes category — the Clorox and Lysol (Reckitt) brands together define the US disinfectant market. The COVID-19 pandemic drove unprecedented Clorox demand (2020-2021 revenue surge), followed by supply chain challenges (a cyberattack in August 2023 disrupted operations for months, reducing fiscal 2024 earnings) and the structural challenge of returning to normal cleaning product demand after pandemic elevated stockpiling. Burt's Bees (natural personal care) and Hidden Valley (the #1 US ranch dressing brand) provide diversification outside the household cleaning core.

Competitive Landscape 2025–2026

In 2025, Clorox (NYSE: CLX) competes in the household cleaning and personal care market with Reckitt (LON: RKT, Lysol, Dettol disinfectants), Procter & Gamble (NYSE: PG, Mr. Clean, Febreze), and SC Johnson (private, Windex, Pledge) for household cleaning product shelf space and consumer loyalty. The 2023 cyberattack recovery and ongoing brand portfolio rationalization (Clorox divested its nuts business and other non-core brands) have been operational priorities. The 2025 strategy focuses on disinfecting product innovation (concentrated formats, sustainable packaging), rebuilding Burt's Bees growth in the natural personal care category, and expanding international revenue to reduce North American concentration.
