Cascade Complete Gel
A pour gel for 24-hour stuck-on food. The page says it has 2X the cleaning power of Cascade Complete Powder on starch and protein soils. The Fresh bottle in the gallery is 120 oz.
Procter & Gamble owns the brand. Cascade's manufacturing page names that parent, and ProPublica traced production to St. Louis. This gel page never says Canada.
Dawn's grease fighters are in the formula, the page says. It is phosphate free. Pairing it with a rinse aid is the brand's tip for drying.
Product Highlights
- •Fresh scent
- •Easy-pour spout

Our Canadian score
Imported
Cascade Complete Gel is not Canadian. Procter & Gamble owns Cascade, and the plant cited for the brand is in St. Louis.
Score breakdown (60% evidenced, medium confidence)
“When Procter & Gamble finally debuted its liquid formulation in the late 1980s, the company began to consolidate Cascade production at its St. Louis plant.”
This score is our own read of publicly available evidence, not a regulatory finding. It is not a CFIA or Competition Bureau origin determination, and it is not the same as the "Product of Canada" or "Made in Canada" claims a manufacturer prints on a label.
