Church & Dwight Co., Inc., founded in 1846, is the leading U.S. producer of sodium bicarbonate, popularly known as baking soda, a natural product that cleans, deodorizes, leavens and buffers. The Company’s ARM & HAMMER brand is one of the nation’s most trusted trademarks for a broad range of consumer and specialty products developed from the base of bicarbonate and related technologies.
The Company’s consumer products business is organized into two segments: Consumer Domestic, which encompasses both household and personal care products, and Consumer International, which primarily consists of personal care products. The Company has eight key brands representing approximately 80% of its consumer sales. These so-called “power brands” include ARM & HAMMER, TROJAN, OXICLEAN, SPINBRUSH, FIRST RESPONSE, NAIR, ORAJEL and XTRA. About 35% of the Company’s domestic consumer products are sold under the ARM & HAMMER brand name and derivative trademarks, such as ARM & HAMMER Liquid and Powder Laundry Detergent, DENTAL CARE Toothpaste and ARM & HAMMER SUPER SCOOP Clumping Cat Litter. The remaining seven power brands have all been added to the Company’s portfolio since 2001 through several acquisitions.
The combination of the core ARM & HAMMER brands and the other seven power brands makes the Company one of the leading consumer packaged goods companies in the United States. The Company’s third business segment is Specialty Products. This business includes specialty inorganic chemicals, animal nutrition, and specialty cleaners.
