PRODUCT INFORMATION
Why soap tablets?
The personal care and beauty industry produces more than 120 billion units of packaging every year globally - most of which are not truly recyclable. Adding excessive waste to landfill, our oceans and our bodies. This plastic doesn’t break down but rather breaks up into micro plastics which leach harmful chemical into our environment – eventually making their way into our bodies.
Rethinking our approach to traditional hand soap and removing unnecessary plastic can help us clean up our waterways and reduce our exposure to toxic chemicals.
Why not soap bars?
Most people prefer foaming or liquid soap over bar soaps. Feedback indicates this is due to concerns over bacterial growth in damp environments and general preference for pump soaps in shared environments.
We like the fact that foam soaps are more eco-friendly compared to soap bars, requiring less water.
How do your tablets work?
The process is very straight forward.
Step 1: Fill the bottle with cold or warm water. Leave room for foaming pump.
Step 2: Drop soap tablet into bottle. Leave to dissolve for 10-15 minutes
