Company Overview
About Schick
Schick is a global personal care brand producing razors, blades, and shaving products — manufacturing manual cartridge razors (Schick Hydro Silk for women, Schick Hydro for men), disposable razors (Schick Xtreme), and electric shavers under the Schick and Wilkinson Sword brands. Schick is owned by Edgewell Personal Care (NYSE: EPC), the consumer goods company that also owns Wilkinson Sword, Carefree, Playtex, and Banana Boat, spun off from Energizer Holdings in 2015. Edgewell generates approximately $2.2 billion in annual net revenue.
Business Model & Competitive Advantage
Schick's razor technology focuses on skin comfort alongside blade sharpness — the Hydro line uses a hydrating gel reservoir in the razor head that releases during shaving to protect skin, positioning Schick as the more skin-friendly alternative to Gillette's Fusion ProShield. The Quattro (4-blade) and Hydro 5 (5-blade) systems compete directly with Gillette's 3, 4, and 5-blade cartridge systems in the premium refillable cartridge razor market, while the disposable line competes on value pricing. Women's razors (Schick Intuition, Hydro Silk) are a significant segment with differentiated ergonomics and features.
Competitive Landscape 2025–2026
In 2025, Schick competes with Gillette (P&G, the dominant razor brand with approximately 60% US market share), Harry's (Edgewell also acquired Harry's, though the FTC blocked the initial deal), BIC, and Dollar Shave Club (Unilever) for men's and women's razor market share. Edgewell's ownership of multiple razor brands (Schick, Wilkinson Sword) gives it scale in the category. The razor market faces long-term headwinds from changing shaving habits among younger consumers (the beard trend reducing frequency) and competition from DTC brands. Edgewell's 2025 strategy for Schick focuses on the skin comfort positioning, growing women's premium razors (a higher-margin segment), and defending retail distribution against P&G's Gillette marketing spend.
