What Eurotab does

Eurotab is a French specialty manufacturer founded in 1957 and headquartered in Saint-Just-Saint-Rambert, France, focused exclusively on 100% solid-format cleaning and hygiene products. Its core portfolio covers dishwasher tablets, laundry tablets, bleach and disinfection tablets, moisture absorbers, and surface/floor cleaning tablets, manufactured at two sites in France and a third facility near Istanbul (Eurotab Avrasya) serving the Turkish local market. The company's underlying technology is powder compression, refined over six decades and protected by the patented Stream Tab architecture and proprietary multi-layer tablet compression that controls ingredient release timing during the wash cycle. Complementing the process technology, Eurotab has built an in-house eco-design capability anchored by a Life Cycle Assessment tool developed with EVEA, which measures environmental impact across four criteria (climate change, freshwater eutrophication, non-renewable energy consumption, water consumption) and supports certifications including Ecolabel, Ecocert, Nordic Swan and Leaping Bunny.

The company operates a B2B revenue model based on quote-based, multi-year private label manufacturing contracts with retailers, brand owners and brand-equity customers, complemented by licensed manufacturing (e.g., Sauber in South Korea) and distribution subsidiaries covering Spain/Portugal (Spaintab), the United States (Eurotab United States, New York) and Canada (Eurotab North America, Montreal). Customers receive co-developed formulations and certifications on demand. Approximately 50% of revenue is international, with commercial presence on five continents and a dedicated Sales Development Manager leading North American growth. As of April 2026, Eurotab is subject to a binding acquisition offer from UK-based McBride at a €40 million enterprise value, with closing expected on or around July 1, 2026.
