The US subsidiary of German giant Henkel KGaA, Henkel Corporation helps consumers stick to it in many parts of their lives and projects. The company operates through three business sectors: laundry and home care, cosmetics and toiletries, and adhesives technologies. Some of its well known brands are Dial soap, Loctite and Pattex adhesives, Sista sealants, Thomsit flooring adhesives, Right Guard antiperspirant, LA LOOKS hair gel, Soft Scrub cleaner, and Purex laundry detergent.

Henkel focuses on home and hearth. The international company makes branded products for laundry and home care (Persil, Purex, Pril), cosmetics and toiletries (Schwarzkopf, Fa, Dial), and adhesives (Loctite, Ceresit, Teroson). Most of Henkel's operations are centered in Europe, although its ownership of The Dial Corporation gives it access to the US market. Henkel serves customers in more than 125 countries from offices extending nearly everywhere but Greenland and Australia. Relatives of the founding Henkel family control the company, which began in 1876. Amid an economic downturn in the US and abroad, Henkel in 2009 initiated a long-term strategy with financial targets that extend into 2012.
