Dettol was first invented for midwives over 86 years ago in the UK, so we have always played a key role in protecting the protectors and we look forward to further adding to the strong support the Kingdom has in place for key workers.”

Dr.Ibrahim Al Haidari of Health Endowment Fund said: “As one of the world’s leading disinfectant brands, we are pleased to have Dettol join our efforts in helping prevent the spread of Covid-19 in Saudi Arabia. We truly admire the dedication and willpower of our frontline workers who are working long hours under challenging circumstances to protect the Kingdom. We want to be as supportive as we can to them during these unprecedented times and this partnership is another step in allowing us to do just that.”
