DETERGENTS DIVISION

PQP manufactures four kinds of detergent with different content of active ingredient: 8%, 11%, 15%, and 18%.

When PQP began operations at its detergent plant, one of our first priorities was the manufacture and supply of private-brand detergents for Colombia’s most popular supermarket chains such as ÉXITO, CADENALCO, MAKRO, OLIMPICA, among others. We also focused on the manufacture and sale of industrial detergents for different countries throughout Latin America and the Caribbean, including Panama, Venezuela, St. Lucia, Puerto Rico, and Ecuador.

PQP has made great progress with the private-brand and industrial detergent segments. We continue making efforts to position our own brands – 123 Ultraclean, WISE, and SI! – in the Colombian market.

PQP´s marketing strategy is centered on the excellent quality of our products and the competitive pricing for the different market segments. Our own brands and the private-brand detergents are available in industrial bulk packaging and retail packaging in bags of different weights for countries throughout Latin America such as Ecuador, Perú, Venezuela, Chile, Bolivia, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, and others.
