What Goltash .Co does

Goltash .Co (شرکت گلتاش) is an Iranian manufacturer of detergents, hygiene products, and cosmetics, founded in 1982 and publicly listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange under the ticker SHegel (شگل). It operates as a subsidiary of Behshahr Industrial Development Group and runs a single Isfahan-based production complex with nameplate capacity of 65,000–70,000 tonnes per year, supported by 590 employees across an Isfahan factory, a Tehran shareholder/head-office site, and an Isfahan regional sales office. The business holds ISO 9001 (quality management) and ISO 14001 (environmental management) certifications.

The company's portfolio spans a multi-brand consumer book — Pooneh, Nasim, Siv, Shabnam, Golnar, Golbou, Aromax, and Dentamax — covering personal care, oral care, and household cleaning, alongside the Goltatex industrial brand serving B2B buyers of cleaning and process chemicals. Upstream, Goltash produces detergent raw materials (betaine, texapon, lauramide) for both captive use and third-party sale, and has recently brought bottle cap production in-house. Recent launches include an Aromax export shampoo line, silica-formulated 70g Pooneh and Nasim toothpaste, and a 10/20-litre institutional gallon line.

Goltash operates a hybrid B2B/B2C model: consumer brands are distributed through domestic retail while industrial products and selected consumer SKUs are exported to Russia/Eurasia, the wider Middle East, the GCC, Afghanistan, and Iraq. Pricing and contract terms are not disclosed. The company reported 202% month-over-month revenue growth for Khordad 1405 (corresponding to late May–late June 2026 in the Gregorian calendar), although no absolute revenue figure was provided.
