}}Church & Dwight Co., Inc., is a major American manufacturer of household products that is headquartered in Ewing, New Jersey and incorporated in Delaware.[3] While it manufactures many items, it is best known for its Arm & Hammer line which includes baking soda and a variety of products made with it. History The company was founded in 1846 to unify two companies created by John Dwight of Massachusetts and his brother-in-law, Austin Church of Connecticut. Their partnership had begun in 1846 with the two founders selling sodium bicarbonate (also known as baking soda) that they refined in Dwight's kitchen.[4] The Arm & Hammer logo, which dates back to the 1860s,[5] is often incorrectly claimed to have originated with tycoon Armand Hammer. Hammer was so often asked about the Church & Dwight brand, however, that he attempted to buy the company. While unsuccessful, Hammer's Occidental Petroleum in 1986 acquired enough stock for him to join the Church & Dwight board of directors.[6] In 2001 the consumer product line of Carter-Wallace was sold to Church and Dwight and MedPointe bought the diagnostics and drug businesses.[7] Church and Dwight acquired Orange Glo International, giving them OxiClean and Orange Glo in 2006.[8] Church & Dwight was ranked 723 in the Fortune 500 listing of companies in 2010. In 2017, MidOcean Partners agreed to sell Waterpik for $1 billion to Church & Dwight. At the time of the sale announcement, it was reported that Water Pik, Inc. had "$265 million of revenue in the fiscal year ended June 30, about 70% of which came from its water flosser products".[9] Historic products continuously available - Arm & Hammer baking soda (1846)

For Church & Dwight, which owns the Arm & Hammer baking soda product line, the purchase of Carter-Wallace's deodorant and pet- care lines will help the firm expand internationally, it said. A 50- 50 venture Church has formed with Kelso will take the other consumer lines. MedPointe will get Carter-Wallace's diagnostics and drug businesses, which make the allergy medicine Astelin, the muscle relaxant Soma and Rynatan/Tussi cough and cold products. ...|newspaper=Los Angeles Times |date=May 9, 2001 |accessdate=2011-09-26 }}
