Why develop an organic soap factory?

Today, many people are looking to use natural products made in an artisanal way, because it is a guarantee of quality and commitment. These are eco-responsible products that do not pose any danger to the planet or to health. All areas of our lives are concerned, including soap. In the era of slow cosmetics, more and more people are opting for organic soap making , but what exactly is it?

The manufacture of organic soap

The manufacture of organic soap uses raw materials from organic and local agriculture. The production process is respectful of the environment and of man, it is without synthetic substances. Organic soap does not contain GMOs, mineral oils (paraffin, silicone, etc.), perfumes, pigments and synthetic dyes as well as artificial preservatives (paraben, etc.). The ingredients used are of organic origin, including beeswax, honey, milk, plants, essential oils, edible vegetable oils (sunflower, olive, etc.), shea or cocoa butter, etc. Everything is done by hand to respect the know-how of the artisans. But that's not all, organic soap is made using an artisanal manufacturing technique which is cold saponification. However, there are several private charters which concern organic and natural soap making such as Cosmébio, Ecocert, Cosmos Organic … Organic soap is therefore a healthier and more ecological alternative to industrial soaps.

Cold saponification

Organic soap making uses an artisanal manufacturing process, in particular cold saponification. It is a slow and gentle technique that consists of mixing vegetable oil (fatty substance) and soda (alkaline) at a low temperature (40 ° maximum). This chemical reaction is called cold saponification, and it respects nature as well as the creativity and know-how of the artisans. Thanks to this method, the ingredients retain their properties. Natural glycerin remains at the heart of organic soap, and this enriches it. Thus, the finished product is moisturizing and emollient. The soda disappears during the chemical reaction. You should know that the production of organic soap is within everyone's reach, and different recipes exist on the website of the French brand Caliquo.

Why choose organic soap making?

First of all, organic soap making is local, we buy the soap from a producer or a craftsman, and it offers better transparency and fewer ingredients in the recipe. Then, it is economical, because organic soap can be used several times to wash the body, face and hair, it is even possible to use it to brush your teeth. But still, turning to organic soap making means choosing an organic, quality and ecological product. Because of its 100% natural and organic ingredients as well as its manufacturing process, organic soap is softer and more moisturizing than classic soap, regardless of the skin type. It cleans perfectly and does not dry out the skin. It also softens it. Last but not least, soap from organic soap making lasts longer.
