History of Finish
- Founded: 1953
- Founders: Benckiser NV
The Finish brand was developed in the mid-20th century as automatic dishwashers became consumer household appliances. Benckiser's Finish product line grew to include tablets, gels, rinse aids, and dishwasher machine cleaners. The brand became the global market leader in automatic dishwashing detergents, a position it has maintained since the Reckitt Benckiser era.
In some European markets, Finish products are sold under the Quantum sub-brand name, emphasizing the brand's flagship multi-benefit tablet format.
