The Procter & Gamble company (P&G) was founded in 1837 by an Englishman, William Procter and an Irishman, James Gamble.
It began as a small, family operated soap and candle company in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA.
In 1837, Thomas Hedley & Co. was established in Newcastle-upon-Tyne making soap and candles.
The company bought the rights to the word ‘Fairy’ and launched the first all-purpose soap in 1898. It remains one of the best-known household product names to this day.
In 1930, Procter & Gamble established its first overseas subsidiary with the acquisition of Thomas Hedley & Co. Ltd.
"The mildest household soap"
With a distinctive Fairy smell, Fairy Household Soap has been available for years. We have some Fairy Household Soap from the 1960's at our showroom and it looks practically the same, right down to the design of the bar and the fonts used.
Information from 1960's packaging of Fairy Household Soap
"Use Fairy when cleaning all floors, lino, walls, paintwork, tiles, plastic surfaces, woodwork in fact all washable hard surfaces. Use Fairy for your mid-week basin wash for nylon and cottons (socks, vests, shirts, underwear, baby clothes etc)"
Please note - The above information, as originally supplied with Fairy Household Soap is over 40 years old, and although the soap is believed to be of the same formula, with new laws introduced about how cleaning products can be marketed the product is no longer sold for this purpose. As with all cleaning products please ensure the surfaces you wish to use this soap on will not impair before using.
Fairy Household Soap is now marketed as a Pre-Treatment Bar for stubborn stains.
Information on today's Fairy Household Soap
"Fairy is ideal for washing hands after jobs around the kitchen, or outside jobs like gardening.
Fairy's so mild, yet cleans so thoroughly.
Fairy isn't highly scented so it leaves hands free of strong perfume"
The price is for a pack of two x 155g bars of soap.
Note: Fairy is a pure soap and flame resistant finishes to fabrics can be impaired if washed with soap, however pure.
