Is Clorox a blue chip stock?
Of course, when it comes to investing in blue chip stocks, Clorox [CLX] is a smart choice for that very reason.
Meet the Murrays
The public didn’t know much about bleach when Clorox® liquid bleach made its debut as an institutional product in 1913. Company founders knew how to manufacture it, but not how to market it. The young venture was near collapse when William and Annie Murray came to the rescue.
Becoming Clorox
Three years before Los Angeles developers erected the famous HOLLYWOOD sign, a giant CLOROX billboard greeted thousands of Bay Area ferry riders. Finally we could afford to pay real money ($75 a month!) for a bold, can’t-miss-it advertisement.
Everlasting Teamwork
Not even the Great Depression could stop the growth of the Clorox Chemical Company, as we were known then. An early believer in equal opportunities, we welcomed women workers not just in the office but on the manufacturing line. LouLou Johnson, a single mother hired in 1933, personified the loyalty that still characterizes our associates.

Wartime Integrity
Clorox was a model corporate citizen in World War II. Our employees worked 48-hour weeks to help the war effort. A Clorox job meant a military deferment for male workers who wanted it, because bleach-making was an essential industry. Bleach was so valuable that it was rationed. The U.S. government was a major customer.
Exemplary Brand
Still a single-product company in the postwar boom years, Clorox sought a merger partner. To keep growing, we needed new products and broader marketing — goals that were tough for a 370-employee organization to attain. Consumer products giant Procter & Gamble was in acquisition mode. It had no bleach products in its extensive portfolio.
Innovation in Plastics
Clorox® liquid bleach wasn’t the first consumer product sold in plastic. That distinction went to competitors with smaller volumes who could convert faster. We took a little more time to switch from glass to plastic bottles because we insisted on sustainability over speed.

Trajectory of Growth
The newly independent Clorox Company launched Clorox 2® color-safe dry bleach, created in our own R&D lab.
