Sun Products was formed in 1975 under the name Huish Detergents Inc., which became a leading manufacturer of retailer brand laundry and dish products. The products Wisk, All, Surf, Sunlight, and Snuggle were acquired from Unilever when its North American laundry detergents were divested in 2008, allowing Huish to acquire them. After the acquisition of the Unilever product portfolio, the company’s name was changed to Sun Products. In 2012, Sun Products Corporation sold White Rain to High Ridge Brands.

On June 24, 2016, Henkel Consumer Goods Inc., a subsidiary of Henkel AG & Co. KGaA (“Henkel”), has signed a definitive agreement to acquire The Sun Products Corporation (“Sun Products”). The transaction is valued at $3.5 billion.
