Includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the Entity may deposit additional funds at any time and also effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Compensating balance arrangements that do not legally restrict the withdrawal or usage of cash amounts may be reported as Cash and Cash Equivalents, while legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against borrowing arrangements, contracts entered into with others, or company statements of intention with regard to particular deposits are not generally reported as cash and cash equivalents. Includes cash and cash equivalents associated with the entity's continuing operations. Excludes cash and cash equivalents associated with the disposal group (and discontinued operation).

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are classified as current or noncurrent based on the classification of the related asset or liability for financial reporting. A deferred tax liability or asset that is not related to an asset or liability for financial reporting, including deferred tax assets related to carryforwards, are classified according to the expected reversal date of the temporary difference. An unrecognized tax benefit that is directly related to a position taken in a tax year that results in a net operating loss carryforward is presented as a reduction of the related deferred tax asset.

Represents the noncurrent portion of deferred tax liabilities, which result from applying the applicable tax rate to net taxable temporary differences pertaining to each jurisdiction to which the entity is obligated to pay income tax. A noncurrent taxable temporary difference is a difference between the tax basis and the carrying amount of a noncurrent asset or liability in the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In a classified statement of financial position, an enterprise separates deferred tax liabilities and assets into a current amount and a noncurrent amount. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are classified as current or noncurrent based on the classification of the related asset or liability for financial reporting. A deferred tax liability or asset that is not related to an asset or liability for financial reporting, including deferred tax assets related to carryforwards, are classified according to the expected reversal date of the temporary difference.

| Description Of Business [Abstract] | |
| Description Of Business | 1 DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Spectrum Brands, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Spectrum Brands" or the "Company"), is a global branded consumer products company. Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc. ("SB Holdings") was created in connection with the combination of Spectrum Brands and Russell Hobbs, Inc. ("Russell Hobbs"), a global branded small appliance company, to form a new combined company (the "Merger"). The Merger was consummated on June 16, 2010. As a result of the Merger, both Spectrum Brands and Russell Hobbs became wholly-owned subsidiaries of SB Holdings. Russell Hobbs was subsequently merged into Spectrum Brands. SB Holdings trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "SPB." Unless the context indicates otherwise, the term "Company" is used to refer to both Spectrum Brands and its subsidiaries prior to the Merger and subsequent to the Merger. The Company's operations include the worldwide manufacturing and marketing of alkaline, zinc carbon and hearing aid batteries, as well as aquariums and aquatic health supplies and the designing and marketing of rechargeable batteries, battery-powered lighting products, electric shavers and accessories, grooming products and hair care appliances. The Company's operations also include the manufacturing and marketing of specialty pet supplies. The Company also manufactures and markets herbicides, insecticides and insect repellents in North America. The Company also designs, markets and distributes a broad range of branded small appliances and personal care products. The Company's operations utilize manufacturing and product development facilities located in the United States ("U.S."), Europe, Latin America and Asia. The Company sells its products in approximately 120 countries through a variety of trade channels, including retailers, wholesalers and distributors, hearing aid professionals, industrial distributors and original equipment manufacturers and enjoys name recognition in its markets under the Rayovac, VARTA and Remington brands, each of which has been in existence for more than 80 years, and under the Tetra, 8-in-1, Spectracide, Cutter, Black & Decker, George Foreman, Russell Hobbs, Farberware, Black Flag, FURminator and various other brands. The Company's global branded consumer products have positions in seven major product categories: consumer batteries; small appliances; pet supplies; electric shaving and grooming; electric personal care; portable lighting; and home and garden controls. The Company's chief operating decision-maker manages the businesses of the Company in three vertically integrated, product-focused reporting segments: (i) Global Batteries & Appliances, which consists of the Company's worldwide battery, electric shaving and grooming, electric personal care, portable lighting and small appliances, primarily in the kitchen and home product categories ("Global Batteries & Appliances"); (ii) Global Pet Supplies, which consists of the Company's worldwide pet supplies business ("Global Pet Supplies"); and (iii) Home and Garden Business, which consists of the Company's home and garden and insect control business (the "Home and Garden Business"). Management reviews the performance of the Company based on these segments. For information pertaining to our business segments, see Note 11, "Segment Results". |

| Significant Accounting Policies | 2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation: The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SB Holdings and its subsidiaries and are prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). All intercompany transactions have been eliminated. These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and, in the opinion of the Company, include all adjustments (which are normal and recurring in nature) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company at April 1, 2012, the results of operations for the three and six month periods ended April 1, 2012 and April 3, 2011 and the cash flows for the six month periods ended April 1, 2012 and April 3, 2011. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011. Use of Estimates: The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Intangible Assets: Intangible assets are recorded at cost or at fair value if acquired in a purchase business combination. Customer relationships and proprietary technology intangibles are amortized, using the straight-line method, over their estimated useful lives of approximately 4 to 20 years. Excess of cost over fair value of net assets acquired (goodwill) and trade name intangibles are not amortized. Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually at the reporting unit level, with such groupings being consistent with the Company's reportable segments. If an impairment is indicated, a write-down to fair value (normally measured by discounting estimated future cash flows) is recorded. Trade name intangibles are tested for impairment at least annually by comparing the fair value with the carrying value. Any excess of carrying value over fair value is recognized as an impairment loss in income from operations. Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 350: "Intangibles-Goodwill and Other," requires that goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets be tested for impairment annually, or more often if an event or circumstance indicates that an impairment loss may have been incurred. The Company's annual impairment testing is completed at the August financial period end. Management uses its judgment in assessing whether assets may have become impaired between annual impairment tests. Indicators such as unexpected adverse business conditions, economic factors, unanticipated technological change or competitive activities, loss of key personnel, and acts by governments and courts may signal that an asset has become impaired. Shipping and Handling Costs: The Company incurred shipping and handling costs of $49,266 and $99,586 for the three and six month periods ended April 1, 2012, respectively, and $47,698 and $98,968 for the three and six month periods ended April 3, 2011, respectively. These costs are included in Selling expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited). Shipping and handling costs include costs incurred with third-party carriers to transport products to customers as well as salaries and overhead costs related to activities to prepare the Company's products for shipment from its distribution facilities. Concentrations of Credit Risk: Trade receivables subject the Company to credit risk. Trade accounts receivable are carried at net realizable value. The Company extends credit to its customers based upon an evaluation of the customer's financial condition and credit history, and generally does not require collateral. The Company monitors its customers' credit and financial condition based on changing economic conditions and makes adjustments to credit policies as required. Provision for losses on uncollectible trade receivables are determined based on ongoing evaluations of the Company's receivables, principally on the basis of historical collection experience and evaluations of the risks of nonpayment for a given customer. The Company has a broad range of customers including many large retail outlet chains, one of which accounts for a significant percentage of its sales volume. This customer represented approximately 21% and 23% of the Company's Net sales during the three and six month periods ended April 1, 2012, respectively. This customer represented approximately 22% and 23% of the Company's Net sales during the three and six month periods ended April 3, 2011, respectively. This customer also represented approximately 14% and 16% of the Company's Trade accounts receivable, net at April 1, 2012 and September 30, 2011, respectively. Approximately 42% and 46% of the Company's Net sales during the three and six month periods ended April 1, 2012, respectively, and 44% and 47% of the Company's Net sales during the three and six month periods ended April 3, 2011, respectively, occurred outside the United States. These sales and related receivables are subject to varying degrees of credit, currency, political and economic risk. The Company monitors these risks and makes appropriate provisions for collectibility based on an assessment of the risks present. Stock-Based Compensation: The Company measures the cost of its stock-based compensation plans based on the fair value of its employee stock awards and recognizes these costs over the requisite service period of the awards. In September 2009, the Company's board of directors (the "Board") adopted the 2009 Spectrum Brands Inc. Incentive Plan (the "2009 Plan"). In conjunction with the Merger, the 2009 Plan was assumed by SB Holdings. Up to 3,333 shares of common stock, net of forfeitures and cancellations, could have been issued under the 2009 Plan. After October 21, 2010, no further awards may be made under the 2009 Plan (as described in further detail below) as the Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc. 2011 Omnibus Equity Award Plan (the "2011 Plan") was approved by the shareholders of the Company on March 1, 2011. In conjunction with the Merger, the Company assumed the Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc. 2007 Omnibus Equity Award Plan (formerly known as the Russell Hobbs, Inc. 2007 Omnibus Equity Award Plan, as amended on June 24, 2008) (the "2007 RH Plan"). Up to 600 shares of common stock, net of forfeitures and cancellations, could have been issued under the 2007 RH Plan. After October 21, 2010, no further awards may be made under the 2007 RH Plan (as described in further detail below) as the 2011 Plan was approved by the shareholders of the Company on March 1, 2011. On October 21, 2010, the Board adopted the 2011 Plan, which received shareholder approval at the Annual Meeting of the shareholders of the Company held on March 1, 2011. After such shareholder approval, no further awards will be granted under the 2009 Plan and the 2007 RH Plan. Up to 4,626 shares of common stock of the Company, net of cancellations, may be issued under the 2011 Plan.
Total stock compensation expense associated with restricted stock awards and restricted stock units recognized by the Company during the three and six month periods ended April 1, 2012 was $6,768, or $4,399, net of taxes, and $11,076, or $7,199, net of taxes, respectively. Total stock compensation expense associated with restricted stock awards and restricted stock units recognized by the Company during the three and six month periods ended April 3, 2011 was $8,554, or $5,560, net of taxes, and $14,107, or $9,170, net of taxes, respectively. The Company granted approximately 13 and 699 restricted stock units during the three and six month periods ended April 1, 2012, respectively. Of these grants, 699 restricted stock units are performance and time-based and vest over a two year period. The total market value of the restricted stock units on the dates of the grants was approximately $18,816. The Company granted approximately 157 and 1,565 restricted stock units during the three and six month periods ended April 3, 2011. Of these grants, 18 restricted stock units are time-based and vest over a three year period. The remaining 1,547 restricted stock units are performance and time-based with 665 units vesting over a two year period and 882 units vesting over a three year period. The total market value of the restricted stock units on the dates of the grants was approximately $45,614. The fair value of restricted stock awards and restricted stock units is determined based on the market price of the Company's shares of common stock on the grant date. A summary of the status of the Company's non-vested restricted stock awards and restricted stock units as of April 1, 2012 is as follows:
Acquisition and Integration Related Charges: Acquisition and integration related charges reflected in Operating expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited) include, but are not limited to, transaction costs such as banking, legal, accounting and other professional fees directly related to acquisitions, termination and related costs for transitional and certain other employees, integration related professional fees and other post business combination expenses associated with mergers and acquisitions.

| Debt [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Debt | 6 DEBT Debt consists of the following:
The Company has the following debt instruments outstanding at April 1, 2012: (i) a senior secured term loan (the "Term Loan") pursuant to a senior credit agreement (the "Senior Credit Agreement") ; (ii) 9.5% secured notes (the "9.5% Notes"); (iii) 6.75% unsecured notes (the "6.75% Notes"); and (iv) a $300,000 ABL revolving credit facility (the "ABL Revolving Credit Facility"). Term Loan On December 15, 2011, the Company amended its Term Loan. As a result, the aggregate incremental amount by which the Company, subject to compliance with financial covenants and certain other conditions, may increase the amount of the commitment under the Term Loan has been increased from $100,000 to $250,000. Certain covenants in respect to indebtedness and liens were also amended to provide for dollar limits more favorable to the Company and, subject to compliance with financial covenants and certain other conditions, to allow for the incurrence of incremental unsecured indebtedness. The Term Loan contains financial covenants with respect to debt, including, but not limited to, a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio, which covenants, pursuant to their terms, become more restrictive over time. In addition, the Term Loan contains customary restrictive covenants, including, but not limited to, restrictions on the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, make investments or specified payments, give guarantees, pay dividends, make capital expenditures and merge or acquire or sell assets. Pursuant to a guarantee and collateral agreement, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries have guaranteed the respective obligations under the Term Loan and related loan documents and have pledged substantially all of their respective assets to secure such obligations. The Term Loan also provides for customary events of default, including payment defaults and cross-defaults on other material indebtedness. In connection with the amendment, the Company recorded $557 of fees in connection with the Term Loan during the six month period ended April 1, 2012. The fees are classified as Debt issuance costs within the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position (Unaudited) and are amortized as an adjustment to interest expense over the remaining life of the Term Loan. In connection with the amendment, the Company also recorded cash charges of $501 as an increase to interest expense during the six month period ended April 1, 2012. 9.5% Notes On November 2, 2011, the Company offered $200,000 aggregate principal amount of 9.5% Notes at a price of 108.50% of the par value; these notes are in addition to the $750,000 aggregate principal amount of 9.5% Notes that were already outstanding. The additional notes are guaranteed by Spectrum Brands' parent company, SB/RH Holdings, LLC, as well as by existing and future domestic restricted subsidiaries and secured by liens on substantially all of the Company's and the guarantors assets. The additional notes will vote together with the existing 9.5% Notes.
The indenture governing the 9.5% Notes (the "2018 Indenture") contains customary covenants that limit, among other things, the incurrence of additional indebtedness, payment of dividends on or redemption or repurchase of equity interests, the making of certain investments, expansion into unrelated businesses, creation of liens on assets, merger or consolidation with another company, transfer or sale of all or substantially all assets, and transactions with affiliates. In addition, the 2018 Indenture provides for customary events of default, including failure to make required payments, failure to comply with certain agreements or covenants, failure to make payments when due or on acceleration of certain other indebtedness, and certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency. Events of default under the 2018 Indenture arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency will automatically cause the acceleration of the amounts due under the 9.5% Notes. If any other event of default under the 2018 Indenture occurs and is continuing, the trustee for the 2018 Indenture or the registered holders of at least 25% in the then aggregate outstanding principal amount of the 9.5% Notes may declare the acceleration of the amounts due under those notes. The Company recorded $106 and $3,570 of fees in connection with the offering of the 9.5% Notes during the three and six month periods ended April 1, 2012. The fees are classified as Debt issuance costs within the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position (Unaudited) and are amortized as an adjustment to interest expense over the remaining life of the 9.5% Notes. 6.75% Notes On March 15, 2012, the Company offered $300,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Notes (the "6.75% Notes") at a price of 100% of the par value. The 6.75% Notes are unsecured and guaranteed by Spectrum Brands' parent company, SB/RH Holdings, LLC, as well as by existing and future domestic restricted subsidiaries. The indenture governing the 6.75% Notes (the "2020 Indenture") contains customary covenants that limit, among other things, the incurrence of additional indebtedness, payment of dividends on or redemption or repurchase of equity interests, the making of certain investments, expansion into unrelated businesses, creation of liens on assets, merger or consolidation with another company, transfer or sale of all or substantially all assets, and transactions with affiliates. In addition, the 2020 Indenture provides for customary events of default, including failure to make required payments, failure to comply with certain agreements or covenants, failure to make payments when due or on acceleration of certain other indebtedness, and certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency. Events of default under the 2020 Indenture arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency will automatically cause the acceleration of the amounts due under the 6.75% Notes. If any other event of default under the 2020 Indenture occurs and is continuing, the trustee for the 2020 Indenture or the registered holders of at least 25% in the then aggregate outstanding principal amount of the 6.75% Notes may declare the acceleration of the amounts due under those notes. The Company recorded $5,814 of fees in connection with the offering of the 6.75% Notes during the three and six month periods ended April 1, 2012. The fees are classified as Debt issuance costs within the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position (Unaudited) and are amortized as an adjustment to interest expense over the remaining life of the 6.75% Notes. 12% Notes On March 1, 2012, the Company launched a cash tender offer (the "Tender Offer") and consent solicitation (the "Consent Solicitation") with respect to any and all of its outstanding 12% Senior Subordinated Toggle Notes due 2019 (the "12% Notes"). Pursuant to the Consent Solicitation, the Company received consents to the adoption of certain amendments to the indenture governing the 12% Notes to, among other things, eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants, certain events of default and other related provisions. The terms of the Tender Offer provided that holders of the 12% Notes who tendered their 12% Notes prior to the expiration of a consent solicitation period, which ended March 14, 2012, would receive tender offer consideration and a consent payment. Holders tendering their 12% Notes subsequent to expiration of the consent solicitation period, but prior to the March 28, 2012 expiration of the Tender Offer period, would receive only tender offer consideration. As of the expiration of the consent solicitation period, holders of the 12% Notes had tendered approximately $231,421 of the 12% Notes. Following the expiration of the consent solicitation period and as of the expiration of the Tender Offer period, an additional $88 of the 12% Notes were tendered. Following expiration of the Tender Offer period, the Company paid the trustee principal, prepaid interest and a prepaid call premium sufficient to obtain a notice of satisfaction and discharge ("Satisfaction and Discharge") from the trustee for the remaining approximately $13,522 of the 12% Notes not tendered. The Company delivered funds sufficient to redeem the 12% Notes on the first redemption date, August 28, 2012 (the "Redemption Date"), and has irrevocably taken all steps on its part necessary to effect such redemption, The trustee under the indenture governing the 12% Notes (the "12% Trustee") has accepted those funds in trust for the benefit of the holders of the 12% Notes and has acknowledged the Satisfaction and Discharge of the 12% Notes and the indenture governing the 12% Notes.
In connection with the Tender Offer, the Company recorded $23,777 of fees and expenses as a cash charge to Interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited) for the three and six month periods ended April 1, 2012. In connection with the Satisfaction and Discharge process, the Company recorded cash charges of $1,623 to Interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited) for the three and six month periods ended April 1, 2012. In addition, $2,097 of debt issuance costs and unamortized premium related to the 12% Notes were written off as a non-cash charge to Interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited) for the three and six month periods ended April 1, 2012. ABL Revolving Credit Facility The ABL Revolving Credit Facility is governed by a credit agreement (the "ABL Credit Agreement") with Bank of America as administrative agent. The ABL Revolving Credit Facility consists of revolving loans (the "Revolving Loans"), with a portion available for letters of credit and a portion available as swing line loans, in each case subject to the terms and limits described therein. The Revolving Loans may be drawn, repaid and re-borrowed without premium or penalty. The proceeds of borrowings under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility are to be used for costs, expenses and fees in connection with the ABL Revolving Credit Facility, for our working capital requirements, restructuring costs, and other general corporate purposes. The ABL Revolving Credit Facility carries an interest rate, at our option, which is subject to change based on availability under the facility, of either: (a) the base rate plus currently 1.25% per annum or (b) the reserve-adjusted LIBOR rate plus currently 2.25% per annum. No principal amortizations are required with respect to the ABL Revolving Credit Facility. The ABL Revolving Credit Facility will mature on June 16, 2014. Pursuant to the credit and security agreement, the obligations under the ABL credit agreement are secured by certain current assets of the guarantors, including, but not limited to, deposit accounts, trade receivables and inventory. The ABL Credit Agreement contains various representations and warranties and covenants, including, without limitation, enhanced collateral reporting and a maximum fixed charge coverage ratio. The ABL Credit Agreement also provides for customary events of default, including payment defaults and cross-defaults on other material indebtedness. As a result of borrowings and payments under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility, at April 1, 2012, the Company had aggregate borrowing availability of approximately $125,337, net of lender reserves of $27,471 and outstanding letters of credit of $28,488. |

| Derivative Financial Instruments | 7 DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Derivative financial instruments are used by the Company principally in the management of its interest rate, foreign currency exchange rate and raw material price exposures. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. Derivative instruments are reported at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position (unaudited). When hedge accounting is elected at inception, the Company formally designates the financial instrument as a hedge of a specific underlying exposure and documents both the risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge. The Company formally assesses both at the inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the financial instruments that are used in hedging transactions are effective at offsetting changes in the forecasted cash flows of the related underlying exposure. Because of the high degree of effectiveness between the hedging instrument and the underlying exposure being hedged, fluctuations in the value of the derivative instruments are generally offset by changes in the forecasted cash flows of the underlying exposures being hedged. Any ineffective portion of a financial instrument's change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings. For derivatives that are not designated as cash flow hedges, or do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment, the change in the fair value is also immediately recognized in earnings. Fair Value of Derivative Instruments The Company discloses its derivative instruments and hedging activities in accordance with ASC Topic 815: "Derivatives and Hedging," ("ASC 815"). The fair value of the Company's outstanding derivative contracts recorded as assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position (Unaudited) were as follows:
The fair value of the Company's outstanding derivative contracts recorded as liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position (Unaudited) were as follows:
Changes in AOCI from Derivative Instruments For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of AOCI and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, are recognized in current earnings. The following table summarizes the impact of derivative instruments on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations (Unaudited) for the three month period ended April 1, 2012, pretax:
The following table summarizes the impact of derivative instruments on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations (Unaudited) for the six month period ended April 1, 2012, pretax:
The following table summarizes the impact of derivative instruments on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations (Unaudited) for the three month period ended April 3, 2011, pretax:
The following table summarizes the impact of derivative instruments on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations (Unaudited) for the six month period ended April 3, 2011, pretax:
Other Changes in Fair Value of Derivative Contracts For derivative instruments that are used to economically hedge the fair value of the Company's third party and intercompany foreign currency payments, commodity purchases and interest rate payments, the gain (loss) associated with the derivative contract is recognized in earnings in the period of change. During the three month periods ended April 1, 2012 and April 3, 2011, the Company recognized the following gains (losses) on these derivative contracts:
During the six month periods ended April 1, 2012 and April 3, 2011, the Company recognized the following gains (losses) on these derivative contracts:
Credit Risk The Company is exposed to the risk of default by the counterparties with which it transacts and generally does not require collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk. The Company monitors counterparty credit risk on an individual basis by periodically assessing each such counterparty's credit rating exposure. The maximum loss due to credit risk equals the fair value of the gross asset derivatives that are concentrated with certain domestic and foreign financial institution counterparties. The Company considers these exposures when measuring its credit reserve on its derivative assets, which was $11 and $18 at April 1, 2012 and September 30, 2011, respectively. The Company's standard contracts do not contain credit risk related contingent features whereby the Company would be required to post additional cash collateral as a result of a credit event. However, the Company is typically required to post collateral in the normal course of business to offset its liability positions. At April 1, 2012 and September 30, 2011, the Company had posted cash collateral of $1,692 and $418, respectively, related to such liability positions. In addition, at April 1, 2012 and September 30, 2011, the Company had posted standby letters of credit of $0 and $2,000, respectively, related to such liability positions. The cash collateral is included in Current Assets—Receivables-Other within the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position (Unaudited). Derivative Financial Instruments Cash Flow Hedges The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage its interest rate risk. The swaps are designated as cash flow hedges with the changes in fair value recorded in AOCI and as a derivative hedge asset or liability, as applicable. The swaps settle periodically in arrears with the related amounts for the current settlement period payable to, or receivable from, the counter-parties included in accrued liabilities or receivables, respectively, and recognized in earnings as an adjustment to interest expense from the underlying debt to which the swap is designated. At April 1, 2012 the Company did not have any of such interest rate swaps outstanding. The Company periodically enters into forward foreign exchange contracts to hedge the risk from forecasted foreign currency denominated third party and intercompany sales or payments. These obligations generally require the Company to exchange foreign currencies for U.S. Dollars, Euros, Pounds Sterling, Australian Dollars, Brazilian Reals, Canadian Dollars or Japanese Yen. These foreign exchange contracts are cash flow hedges of fluctuating foreign exchange related to sales of product or raw material purchases. Until the sale or purchase is recognized, the fair value of the related hedge is recorded in AOCI and as a derivative hedge asset or liability, as applicable. At the time the sale or purchase is recognized, the fair value of the related hedge is reclassified as an adjustment to Net sales or purchase price variance in Cost of goods sold. At April 1, 2012 the Company had a series of foreign exchange derivative contracts outstanding through June 2013 with a contract value of $174,255. The derivative net loss on these contracts recorded in AOCI by the Company at April 1, 2012 was $(453), net of tax benefit of $166. At April 1, 2012, the portion of derivative net loss estimated to be reclassified from AOCI into earnings by the Company over the next 12 months is $(396), net of tax. The Company is exposed to risk from fluctuating prices for raw materials, specifically zinc used in its manufacturing processes. The Company hedges a portion of the risk associated with these materials through the use of commodity swaps. The hedge contracts are designated as cash flow hedges with the fair value changes recorded in AOCI and as a hedge asset or liability, as applicable. The unrecognized changes in fair value of the hedge contracts are reclassified from AOCI into earnings when the hedged purchase of raw materials also affects earnings. The swaps effectively fix the floating price on a specified quantity of raw materials through a specified date. At April 1, 2012 the Company had a series of such swap contracts outstanding through July 2014 for 13 tons with a contract value of $26,039. The derivative net gain on these contracts recorded in AOCI by the Company at April 1, 2012 was $21, net of tax expense of $2. At April 1, 2012, the portion of derivative net losses estimated to be reclassified from AOCI into earnings by the Company over the next 12 months is $(17), net of tax. Derivative Contracts The Company periodically enters into forward and swap foreign exchange contracts to economically hedge the risk from third party and intercompany payments resulting from existing obligations. These obligations generally require the Company to exchange foreign currencies for U.S. Dollars, Euros or Australian Dollars. These foreign exchange contracts are fair value hedges of a related liability or asset recorded in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position (Unaudited). The gain or loss on the derivative hedge contracts is recorded in earnings as an offset to the change in value of the related liability or asset at each period end. At April 1, 2012 and September 30, 2011, the Company had $194,490 and $265,974, respectively, of notional value for such foreign exchange derivative contracts outstanding.
The Company is exposed to economic risk from foreign currencies, including firm commitments for purchases of materials denominated in South African Rand. Periodically the Company economically hedges a portion of the risk associated with these purchases through forward and swap foreign exchange contracts. The contracts are designated as fair value hedges. The hedges effectively fix the foreign exchange in U.S. Dollars on a specified amount of Rand to a future payment date. The unrealized change in fair value of the hedge contracts is recorded in earnings and as a hedge asset or liability, as applicable. The unrealized gains or losses are reversed from earnings as the hedged purchases of materials affects earnings. At April 1, 2012 and September 30, 2011, the Company had $2,088 and $0 of such foreign exchange derivative contracts outstanding. |

| Fair Value Of Financial Instruments | 8 FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS ASC Topic 820: "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures," ("ASC 820") establishes a framework for measuring fair value that requires fair value to be determined based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. ASC 820 establishes market or observable inputs as the preferred source of values, followed by assumptions based on hypothetical transactions in the absence of market inputs. The valuation techniques required by ASC 820 are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions made by the Company. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:
The Company has not changed its valuation techniques in measuring the fair value of any financial assets and liabilities during the periods presented. The Company's net derivative portfolio as of April 1, 2012, contains Level 2 instruments and consists of commodity, interest rate and foreign exchange contracts. The fair values of these instruments as of April 1, 2012 were as follows:
The Company's net derivative portfolio as of September 30, 2011, contains Level 2 instruments and consists of commodity, interest rate and foreign exchange contracts. The fair values of these instruments as of September 30, 2011 were as follows:
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts payable and short-term debt approximate fair value. The fair values of long-term debt are based off unadjusted quoted market prices (level 1) and derivative financial instruments are generally based on quoted or observed market prices (level 2). The carrying values of goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets are tested annually, or more frequently if an event occurs that indicates an impairment loss may have been incurred, using fair value measurements with unobservable inputs (Level 3).
The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company's financial instruments are summarized as follows ((liability)/asset):

| Employee Benefit Plans | 9 EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS Pension Benefits The Company has various defined benefit pension plans covering some of its employees in the U.S. and certain employees in other countries, primarily the United Kingdom and Germany. These pension plans generally provide benefits of stated amounts for each year of service. The Company also sponsors or participates in a number of other non-U.S. pension arrangements, including various retirement and termination benefit plans, some of which are covered by local law or coordinated with government-sponsored plans, which are not significant in the aggregate and therefore are not included in the information presented below. The Company also has various nonqualified deferred compensation agreements with certain of its employees. Under certain of these agreements, the Company has agreed to pay certain amounts annually for the first 15 years subsequent to retirement or to a designated beneficiary upon death. It is management's intent that life insurance contracts owned by the Company will fund these agreements. Under the remaining agreements, the Company has agreed to pay such deferred amounts in up to 15 annual installments beginning on a date specified by the employee, subsequent to retirement or disability, or to a designated beneficiary upon death. Other Benefits Under the Rayovac postretirement plan, the Company provides certain health care and life insurance benefits to eligible retired employees. Participants earn retiree health care benefits over the next 10 succeeding years of service after reaching age 45 and remain eligible until reaching age 65. The plan is contributory and, accordingly, retiree contributions have been established as a flat dollar amount with contribution rates expected to increase at the active medical trend rate. This plan is unfunded. Under the Tetra U.S. postretirement plan, the Company provides postretirement medical benefits to full-time employees who meet minimum age and service requirements. The plan is contributory with retiree contributions adjusted annually and contains other cost-sharing features such as deductibles, coinsurance and copayments. The Company's results of operations for the three and six month periods ended April 1, 2012 and April 3, 2011 reflect the following pension and deferred compensation benefit costs:
The Company funds its U.S. pension plans in accordance with the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") defined guidelines and, where applicable, in amounts sufficient to satisfy the minimum funding requirements of applicable laws. Additionally, in compliance with the Company's funding policy, annual contributions to non-U.S. defined benefit plans are equal to the actuarial recommendations or statutory requirements in the respective countries. The Company's contributions to its pension and deferred compensation plans for the three and six month periods ended April 1, 2012 and April 3, 2011 were as follows:
The Company sponsors a defined contribution pension plan for its domestic salaried employees, which allows participants to make contributions by salary reduction pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Company also sponsors defined contribution pension plans for employees of certain foreign subsidiaries. Company contributions charged to operations, including discretionary amounts, for the three and six month periods ended April 1, 2012 were $573 and $1,149, respectively. Company contributions charged to operations, including discretionary amounts, for the three and six month periods ended April 3, 2011 were $1,342 and $2,753, respectively. |

| New Accounting Pronouncements [Abstract] | |
| New Accounting Pronouncements | 15 NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS Fair Value Measurement In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued amended accounting guidance to achieve a consistent definition of and common requirements for measurement of and disclosure concerning fair value between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. This amended guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the second quarter of its fiscal year ending September 30, 2012. The new accounting guidance did not have a material effect on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. Presentation of Comprehensive Income In June 2011, the FASB issued new accounting guidance which requires entities to present net income and other comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement or in two separate, but consecutive, statements of net income and other comprehensive income. This accounting guidance is effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new accounting guidance on its Consolidated Financial Statements. Testing for Goodwill Impairment During September 2011, the FASB issued new accounting guidance intended to simplify how an entity tests goodwill for impairment. The guidance will allow an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. An entity will no longer be required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. This accounting guidance is effective for the Company for the annual and any interim goodwill impairment tests performed for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a significant impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements. |
