Why use Soap Nuts instead of normal detergents?

Soapnuts are Economical

With a kilo (containing around 325 soap nuts), a family can do around 270 washes. When compared to the costs of store-bought detergents and household cleaners, soapnuts are clearly an extremely cost effective alternative.

Fabric softener is not needed when using soapnuts, as there is no residue left on the clothes to make them hard. Your washing machine will last longer as there are no harsh chemicals to attack washing machine parts.

Soap nuts are eco-friendly

Soap nuts are 100% environmentally friendly from start to end. Our soapnuts do not pollute the environment through use, and can be added to your compost heap to be recycled back into the environment (100% biodegradable). Not only that, but the growing of the soapnut trees helps produce oxygen and remove carbon dioxide from the air. Have you ever thought about all the chemicals that we pour down the drain daily? What impact do they have on our environment?

Soap nuts are an excellent choice for people wanting to use environmentally friendly products. It’s an organic product and contain no added chemicals, fragrances, dyes or fillers.
