Competitive Landscape
Leading Companies Maintain Positions through Innovation and Visibility
The home insecticides market in Australia remained concentrated in 2025, with Reckitt Benckiser (Australia) and SC Johnson & Son holding shares of 58% and 22%, respectively. The landscape saw slight fragmentation over 2020-2025, as Reckitt Benckiser's share remained stable at 58%, while SC Johnson’s share fell from 24% to 22%.
Strategic Divestiture Shapes Competitive Dynamics
A significant development in 2025 was Reckitt Benckiser's sale of a majority stake in its Essential Home division - which includes the Mortein brand - to Advent International. This divestiture has allowed Reckitt to refocus on core health and hygiene brands such as Lysol and Dettol, while retaining a 30% stake.
