Delivering 45 days of continuous freshness, Febreze TRASH can tackle everything from cooking fails to stinky leftovers and beyond. Gone too is the worry of opening the kitchen bin as Febreze TRASH delivers four fresh Febreze scents – Linen &amp; Sky, Fresh Lemon, Gain Original, and Twilight Lavender – to look forward to every time you have something else to toss. So, say goodbye to changing the garbage bag before it's full, counting down to trash pickup day, or searching for another DIY solution!
“Every day, we open our trash cans up to 45 times—that’s 45 opportunities for an unpleasant odor to disrupt the life happening in your kitchen,” said Tyler Beck, Vice President, North America Air Care, Procter &amp; Gamble. “As leaders in air care and home fragrance, we saw an opportunity to transform a daily chore into a moment of unexpected delight. Like so many other Febreze products, Febreze TRASH doesn't just fight stubborn smells, it makes it so the only thing you, your family, and your guests notice in the kitchen is the fresh atmosphere you’ve worked so hard to create.”
Febreze TRASH also features a versatile design compatible with a variety of bins, even those without lids or in a cabinet pull-out. Users simply insert the cartridge and use the included 3M™ tape to secure the device, which can adhere to metal, plastic, and painted surfaces. After 45 days, replace with a refill cartridge for continued freshness.
The Febreze TRASH Odor Fighter Starter Kit is available beginning April 23rd at major retailers nationwide, including <a target="_blank" href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.walmart.com%2Fbrand%2Ffebreze%2Ftrash-meta%2F20050034%3FselectedSellerId%3D0&amp;esheet=54520884&amp;newsitemid=20260423293605&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Walmart&amp;index=2&amp;md5=4345804d9dd7647b25338d6eb7a1a7de" rel="nofollow" shape="rect">Walmart</a> and <a target="_blank" href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.target.com%2Fb%2Ffebreze%2F-%2FN-5y1qi&amp;esheet=54520884&amp;newsitemid=20260423293605&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Target&amp;index=3&amp;md5=62c5d0916da19eaa5add9eba6fcbf562" rel="nofollow" shape="rect">Target</a>, both online and in-store in the Air Care and Trash aisles, with an MSRP starting at $5.94*.

The Fortune America's Most Innovative Companies ranking assesses organizations across three equally weighted dimensions: Product Innovation, Process Innovation, and Innovation Culture. The methodology draws on an extensive data collection process, including analysis of intellectual property portfolios and surveys of more than 30,000 employees and 3,000 industry experts and customers — ensuring a rigorous, 360-degree view of each company's innovation capabilities. The 300 recognized companies collectively represent over $12.5 trillion in annual revenue, placing P&amp;G among America's most elite and consequential innovators.
"This recognition is a testament to our incredible organization around the world and their commitment to pushing the boundaries of what's possible, transforming how we innovate.

The company's robust intellectual property portfolio and proven ability to turn scientific breakthroughs into products that improve the lives of consumers continue to differentiate P&amp;G at scale — as also evidenced by its recent Fortune 500 ranking.
