CLX vs LII Comparison

Since its inception more than 100 years ago, Clorox has expanded to operate in an array of consumer product categories, including cleaning supplies, laundry care, trash bags, cat litter, charcoal, food dressings, water filtration products, and natural personal-care products. Beyond its namesake brand, the firm's portfolio includes Liquid-Plumr, Pine-Sol, S.O.S, Tilex, Kingsford, Fresh Step, Glad, Hidden Valley, KC Masterpiece, Brita, and Burt's Bees. Nearly 85% of Clorox's sales come from its home turf.

Lennox manufactures and distributes heating, ventilating, air conditioning, and refrigeration products for the North American replacement (75% of sales) and new construction (25% of sales) markets. Residential HVAC (home comfort solutions) accounts for 67% of sales and commercial HVAC (building climate solutions) accounts for the remaining 33% of sales. Lennox's commercial exposure is what its peers refer to as residential and light commercial, and it lacks the scale and complexity of what is referred to as an applied solution. The company goes to market with multiple brands, but Lennox is its flagship HVAC brand.
