British multinational consumer goods group Reckitt Benckiser launched its new research and development (R&D) centre in Singapore on July 18, joining the London-listed company’s network of R&D centres in the US, the UK, India and China.

The 5,000 sq ft R&D lab, located within Nucleos at Biopolis Road, will serve markets worldwide with a key focus on the Asean region, according to Reckitt, which owns Dettol and Strepsils, among other brands.

Supported by the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB), Reckitt has made “strategic investments” in developing its R&D centre, though its president for Asean, Japan and Korea declined to reveal this figure.
