Glance View
In the bustling industrial landscape of the mid-20th century, a small company began its ascent to prominence with a single product that would eventually find its way into homes and businesses around the globe. WD-40 Company, originally founded as Rocket Chemical Company in 1953, launched a product that was initially designed to protect the Atlas missile from rust and corrosion. The product, aptly named WD-40 to signify the "Water Displacement" 40th formula, quickly became a staple due to its versatile capabilities in lubrication, cleaning, and protection. From loosening rusted screws to silencing squeaky hinges, WD-40’s effectiveness found a wide audience, leading to a virtually unchanged formula that has become synonymous with reliability and utility. As the company evolved, WD-40 Co. expanded its product line, strategically branding itself as a leader in multi-use maintenance products while carving out a niche in various commercial and consumer markets. The company generates revenue primarily through the sale of its flagship product, WD-40 Multi-Use Product, and a range of other maintenance items, including lubricants, rust removal products, and degreasers. Their geographical reach spans over 176 countries, ensuring steady revenue streams globally. This diversification strategy, coupled with a robust distribution network, signifies not merely the triumph of a single product but an operational model predicated on simplicity, universal appeal, and consistent demand. In their quest to keep things “running smoothly,” WD-40 Co. seamlessly blends innovation with tradition, continually enhancing its product offerings while maintaining an unwavering commitment to quality.
