High-Quality Industrial Production and Packaging Equipment of Colgate-Palmolive Available
Rillieux-la-Pape, France, 1 September 2026 - A significant selection of high-quality industrial assets, formerly utilised in the production of bleach products by Colgate-Palmolive, is being made available for acquisition. These assets represent an exceptional opportunity for manufacturers looking to enhance their operations with proven, well-maintained equipment through sustainable asset redeployment.
The available inventory includes specialised machinery from the Rillieux-la-Pape site, which has a long-standing history of industrial excellence. By making these assets available to new production environments, Colgate-Palmolive supports the circular economy and ensures the continued utility of high-specification industrial technology.
These assets have supported the manufacturing of leading brands such as La Croix bleach and Soupline fabric softener. The current availability of this equipment allows other manufacturers to benefit from systems designed for precision, reliability, and high-volume output in the household-care and chemical sectors.

Production equipment brought to international market
Troostwijk Auctions is managing the sale of more than 230 lots of production and packaging equipment on the international market. The assets were used in the manufacture and packaging of household-care products and cover processes including filling, packaging, plastics processing, storage and handling.
“The redeployment of these high-specification assets represents a significant opportunity for industrial sustainabilitye,” says Simon Maillon, Country Manager France at Troostwijk Auctions. “Industrial equipment often has a much longer useful life than the operation for which it was originally purchased. By bringing these assets to an international market, we can connect them with manufacturers that can put them back to work.”
The equipment ranges from individual machines to systems that could potentially be combined into broader production or packaging configurations. It may be relevant to manufacturers of household-care products, chemicals, liquid consumer products and plastic packaging. Reusing this type of industrial equipment can extend the lifespan of existing assets while giving manufacturers an alternative to investing solely in new machinery.
