What R&R Lotion does

R&R Lotion Inc. is a privately held Arizona corporation founded in 1985 and headquartered at 15547 North 77th Street, Scottsdale, that develops and sells industrial-grade skin care and personal protection products for professional workers. Its core technology platform comprises specialized topical formulations — FDA-approved Benzalkonium Chloride-based alcohol-free sanitizers, physical zinc oxide sunscreens with proprietary shear-dispersion technology, and a Bentonite Clay-based ivy barrier — together with static-dissipative packaging for electronics manufacturing. The product portfolio is organized around the I.C. (Industry Care) core line, complemented by sub-brands including Industrial Strength (sunscreen), Blue Collar (ruggedized heavy duty), Pura Vida (premium body care), Ivy Block/Cleanse/Relief, and Desert Spirit, alongside ESD-safe bottles, dispensers, and accessories.

The company operates across ten industry verticals — healthcare, electronics manufacturing, utilities/electrical, food processing, military, first responders, construction, oil & gas, general manufacturing, and education — and has accumulated a dense regulatory footprint including NSF E4/E3, EPA registration, ASTM D120 and F2621 compliance, FDA approval, Mil Spec, OEKO-TEX, BLUESIGN, CHG compatibility, and a GSA Schedule contract (GS-07F-5355R) for federal procurement.

Revenue is generated through product sales across four channels: direct e-commerce at rrlotion.com with free shipping over $75, an authorized distributor and reseller network recruited via a "Become a Distributor" program, B2B field sales driven by sample requests to safety/manufacturing/medical professionals, and federal procurement via GSA. Pricing is unit-based with tiered volume discounts, ranging from $2.75 lip balm units to $385.00 bulk gallons. A Private Label contract-manufacturing program adds a B2B2C revenue stream. Marketing relies on industry association memberships (NSC, ASSE, AIHA, AFS, VPPPA, APIC, ESDA, STAFDA), trade show participation (VPPPA 2026, NSC 2026), Lunch and Learn educational programs, content marketing, and social media across Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram.

Broad incumbents

• Spartan Chemical Company: Manufacturer of industrial and institutional cleaning, sanitizing, and skin care products for facility maintenance, food processing, and manufacturing. Comparable to R&R through overlapping industrial hand-hygiene and skin-care SKUs.
• Kimberly-Clark Professional: B2B arm of Kimberly-Clark supplying wipers, sanitizers, soaps, and skin care products to industrial and healthcare buyers. Overlaps with R&R's hand-care and cleanroom wiping categories within a much broader product portfolio.
• SC Johnson Professional: Division of SC Johnson offering industrial hand hygiene, cleaning, and sanitizing products (including the legacy Deb Group range). Competes broadly with R&R across hand care, sanitizers, and dispensers, with significantly greater global scale.
• 3M (Occupational Health & Safety): Diversified industrial conglomerate with skin protectants, sunscreens, and worker-safety products sold into the same utility, construction, and manufacturing verticals as R&R's Industrial Strength sunscreen line.

Direct peers

• Kutol Products Company: Family-owned US manufacturer of commercial hand soaps, sanitizers, and skin care products for industrial and institutional end markets. Closely comparable in size, private ownership, and channel focus to R&R Lotion.
• GOJO Industries: Maker of Purell and the leading supplier of hand sanitizers, soaps, and skin care for industrial, healthcare, and food-processing environments. Directly competes with R&R's IC sanitizer and hand-cleaner lines in the same professional verticals.
• Nice-Pak Products: Manufacturer of wet wipes and pre-moistened sanitizing products, including alcohol-free formulations, serving consumer and institutional customers. Competes with R&R in the sanitizer and antibacterial-hand-hygiene category.
• Deb Group (SC Johnson Professional): Specialist in occupational hand care and skin care systems for industrial and food-handling environments. Now operating under SC Johnson Professional, but historically a direct competitor to R&R in NSF- and food-safety-compliant hand lotions and sanitizers.
• Vi-Jon: Private-label manufacturer of hand sanitizers, soaps, and personal care products for retail and institutional customers. Comparable to R&R through its sanitizer manufacturing base and willingness to serve B2B and private-label contracts.

Emerging players

• Beaumont Products: US-based specialty manufacturer of personal-care and cleaning products (Citrus Magic, etc.) with growing institutional and natural-channel presence. Smaller-scale but adjacent in the industrial/cleaning and plant-based personal care space.
