History of KIMBERLY CLARK

Kimberly-Clark, a renowned multinational corporation, has a rich history dating back to the late 19th century. It all began in 1872 when John A. Kimberly, Charles B. Clark, Havilah Babcock, and Franklyn C. Shattuck founded the company as a paper mill in Neenah, Wisconsin, USA. Initially named Kimberly, Clark & Co., the company primarily focused on producing newsprint paper and eventually expanded into manufacturing coated paper, tissue, and sanitary paper products.

In 1920, Kimberly-Clark revolutionized the personal care industry with the introduction of Kotex, the first disposable menstrual pad for women. This innovation marked a significant departure from traditional reusable cloth alternatives and propelled the company into the consumer goods sector. Over the years, Kimberly-Clark continued to innovate, introducing iconic products such as Kleenex facial tissues in 1924 and Huggies disposable diapers in 1978, further solidifying its position as a leader in the hygiene and personal care market.

Today, Kimberly-Clark operates globally, offering a diverse portfolio of brands across various categories, including personal care, consumer tissue, and professional products. With a commitment to innovation, quality, and sustainability, the company continues to evolve its product offerings to meet the changing needs of consumers worldwide, maintaining its legacy of enhancing hygiene, health, and well-being through its trusted brands.
