Lizol cement cleaner addressed the issue of calcium carbonate and consumers saw tangible results in front of their eyes.
Sukhleen Aneja, CMO & Marketing Director, RB Hygiene Home South Asia said “The floor cleaner category is growing at double digits and with growing urbanisation, the category is poised to accelerate further.

Taking our vision to ‘Create a Cleaner World’ forward, we have launched Lizol Cement floor cleaner to serve many more consumers. By 2020, more than 18 crore homes in India will have cement floors with 33% homes in South India itself. We are so confident of our product’s proven efficacy that we are introducing a 6-day money-back challenge.”
