About Celeste
Celeste was founded by the Granville family in 1946 in Wilton, Connecticut. The company grew as a perfume manufacturer through innovation in both aerosol perfume and stick cologne technology to the chemical company it is today. During the 1950s, the company diversified into non-woven wipes for hospitals and toilet chemicals for government bomb shelter programs. Through product and market transitions, Celeste’s toilet chemical technology evolved through military aircraft applications to commercial airlines and rail markets.
From this foundation of cleaning and odor control, the company broadened its product portfolio to encompass hard surface cleaning, closed system cleaning, disinfecting and sanitizing, potable water quality, MRO and hand care.
Today, Celeste serves most of the world’s commercial airlines and railways with exceptional customer service and is recognized as a leading innovator of chemical formulations to meet the ever increasing demands of the global aviation and rail market.
