 PROFILE
Households can't keep clean by bleach alone, so The Clorox Company helps out in other ways. Although best known for bleach (#1 in the world), Clorox makes laundry and cleaning products (Pine-Sol, Soft Scrub), insecticides (Combat), kitty litter (Fresh Step), car care products (Armor All), and charcoal briquettes (Kingsford). About 90% of its sales come from brands ranked #1 or #2 in their markets. Its 1999 acquisition of First Brands added 40% in total sales and gave the company its biggest brand -- Glad plastic wraps, storage bags, and containers. Clorox sells its products in more than 110 countries; growing international sales account for about 20% of its total. Chemical giant Henkel owns nearly 30% of Clorox.
