Soapods are organic and come from the Indian soap nut tree and are an excellent eco friendly alternative to washing powders. The Soap nut tree is a large deciduous tree with fleshy fruit like a berry. The skin of the berry (the soapod) contains 12-15% saponin which is similar to soap. Saponin is the active cleaning ingredient in Soapods, and it has a dermatologically sound lathering and cleansing effect.

Soapods are completely chemical-free so they are safe for the most sensitive skins.

The soap nut tree is an important tree of tropical and sub-tropical regions of Asia. The tree grows in many places from Afghanistan in the west to China in the east and also Florida,the Caribbean and Africa.
The tree can reach a height of 25m and a girth of 3 to 5m and flowers for at least 70 years.

This natural product could wash and clean as effectively as normal detergents and could save you money. You could also stop using many different types of household cleaning products. Window-cleaner, bathroom-cleaner, kitchen-cleaner, floor-cleaner, conventional multi-purpose cleaner, stainless steel-cleaner, wood-cleaner, liquid hand-wash, washing-up liquid and shampoo (human and pet!).

Organic and biodegradable, Soapods are also a sustainable, renewable primary product and a valuable contribution to the fight against environmental pollution. There is sometimes the inaccurate perception that "Eco-products" are not as effective as their mass-produced chemical equivalents, Soapods breaks down these barriers.
