Unilever is the UK's and the world's largest manufacturer of deodorants.

Unilever has three times the market share of its closest competitors.

In the mid-1990s, the UK was producing 10% of the world's, and 25% of Europe's, aerosol products.

Due to the flammable substances (LPG and ethanol) stored on site to create the propellants, the site is regulated by the Control of Major Accident Hazards Regulations 2015.

The site also has 3 roll-on packing lines with a total output of 750 bottles per minute between them.
