About Dum Dum

Since 1959, Dum Dum, a distinguished member of the Henkel Group, has been the guardian of Portuguese homes, safeguarding families from the nuisance of insects. Our heritage is deeply rooted in our commitment to quality and efficacy, using only the finest ingredients to create products that effectively eliminate a wide array of insects, including flies, mosquitoes, cockroaches, ants, moths, and other crawling and flying pests.

Our product range is as diverse as the insects we protect against, with our flagship Dum Dum Multi Insects Insecticide Spray being a favorite among consumers for its quick and lasting effect. However, we understand that each home has unique needs, which is why we also offer natural insecticides, natural mosquito repellents, electric insecticides, and more. Our mission is to provide our customers with the perfect solution for their specific pest control requirements.

At Dum Dum, we are more than just an insect control brand. We are a trusted name, synonymous with quality, safety, and effectiveness. Our unwavering commitment to innovation and expansion ensures that Portuguese families can enjoy a pest-free environment, fostering a sense of well-being and peace of mind throughout the year. We are not just protecting homes; we are safeguarding the sanctity of family time.

Where to find the batch code on Dum Dum products?

Finding the batch code on your Dum Dum product is essential for tracking its freshness. For skincare products like serums or creams, look at the bottom of the glass jar or plastic bottle. The code is often etched into the container or printed in a small, contrasting color.

If you have a tube (like a cleanser or hand cream), check the crimped seal at the very top. For boxed items, Dum Dum usually stamps the same alphanumeric code on the outer packaging near the barcode or ingredient list. Most Dum Dum batch codes consist of 3 to 6 characters, combining letters and numbers.

Important: Period After Opening (PAO)

While the batch code reveals the expiration date for unopened products, the **Period After Opening (PAO)** symbol is what you must follow once you use the product for the first time. Look for an "open jar" icon with a number followed by 'M' (e.g., 6M, 12M). This indicates how many months your Dum Dum product remains safe and effective after the seal is broken.

Frequently Asked Questions about Dum Dum

What is the shelf life of Dum Dum cosmetics?
Most Dum Dum products have a standard shelf life of 36 months when unopened. However, once a product is opened, you should refer to the PAO (Period After Opening) symbol on the packaging, which typically indicates a lifespan of 6 to 24 months.
Does Dum Dum print expiration dates on packaging?
Dum Dum often uses batch codes instead of explicit expiration dates for products sold in many regions. These alphanumeric codes allow you to determine the manufacturing date, which is the starting point for calculating its shelf life.
Can a batch code tell me if my Dum Dum product is authentic?
While a valid batch code indicates that the code format matches Dum Dum's manufacturing patterns, it is not a definitive proof of authenticity. Counterfeiters can sometimes replicate valid batch codes. Always purchase from authorized retailers to ensure product authenticity.
