We've always used plastic free soaps before the 1950's. Now, the home care industry generates 29 billion plastic bottles a year! With bar soaps generally being such a sustainable and affordable option, it's a surprise more people don't use them.
If you are looking for an organic body soap company, Meliora has to be it. They always taking the extra step to ensure the sustainability of their products and they donate a portion of their profits to the environment.
This bath and body bar is a nourishing mix of organic coconut and local sunflower oils which will leave your skin happy and cleansed. Even for the most sensitive of skins.
Today, the home care industry generates more than 29 billion plastic containers every single year! This is crazy given that just a handful of decades ago this number was at 0.
Some reasons we love bar soaps so much is that:
On average, the production of liquid soap requires 5x times more energy for raw material, has a 10x bigger carbon footprint, and uses almost 20x more energy for packaging production than traditional bar soaps.
liquid soap contributes to much more ecotoxicity, ozone depletion, and eutrophication potential than bar soaps
These bar soaps aren't petroleum-based, which is common for liquid soaps.
Most liquid soaps contain palm-oil. Palm oil is one of the major drivers of deforestation, destroying some of the worlds most diverse forests, and destroying the habitat of several already endangered species.
