Downy is an American brand of fabric softener produced by Procter & Gamble that was introduced in 1960. Downy is only sold in North America: elsewhere, P&G sells fabric softener under the unrelated Lenor brand.
Brand history
Lenor is a brand name of fabric softener and dryer sheets, also produced by P&G, sold in Europe, Russia and Japan. Lenor fabric softener had entered China in 2007[1] but was subsequently discontinued.[2] Scent beads under the brand Downy have been sold in China since December 2017.[3] Plans to rebrand Lenor as Downy in the UK were dropped in 2002.[4]
Awards
For the company's national and international experience in sustainable development, and eco-friendly products, the Environment Possibility Award conferred the "Environmental Heroes of the Year" to Downy in 2012.[5]
Advertising
Amy Sedaris and Tituss Burgess are the talents hired to promote the Downy/Lenor Unstopables In-Wash Scent Boosters range in both the US and the UK. The commercials were filmed by Grey Advertising. Its most recent television commercial features the Backstreet Boys.
