Initial

Initial is the washroom hygiene and services brand of the global Rentokil Initial plc group. In South Africa, Initial operates alongside the Rentokil pest control brand under Rentokil Initial South Africa, providing washroom hygiene services, feminine hygiene units, air freshening, and similar services to commercial premises. The bundling of Initial hygiene services with Rentokil pest control is central to the SA group’s commercial sales strategy — corporate clients receive a single vendor invoice covering pest control and washroom services. This bundled model creates additional switching costs beyond pest control alone.
