Colgate Toothpaste traces its origin to a toothpaste sold in a jar by William Colgate's company from 1873, later reformulated into the collapsible tube format still standard today, a packaging innovation the company introduced in the 1890s adapted from artists' paint tubes. It became one of the best-selling toothpaste brands in the world, and the Colgate name remains synonymous with oral-care products globally under its parent, Colgate-Palmolive.
