Transcription

Advertising

In Portugal, the Calgon advertisement jingle has been the same popular one[1][better source needed] for almost 30 years.[when?]

In Italy, Calgon was called Calfort from 1965 to early 2008.[2]

In the UK & Ireland, Calgon started advertising on TV in March 1985 and it's still in use today.

Criticism

In May 2011 a study by Which? magazine demonstrated that there was no evidence to suggest that washing machines lasted longer when treated with Calgon under "normal" washing conditions. Calgon disputes this, however.[3] In October 2011, Dutch TROS TV program Radar also concluded Calgon water softener is not necessary under "normal" washing conditions for Dutch customers.[4]
