INTRODUCTION OF SOAPNUT
Soapnuts are the only 100% Natural cleaning product that grows on a tree, drops to the ground and dries and is ready to use…no manufacturing so no pollution nor unnecessary waste of resources. They truly are a gift from Mother Nature to all of humanity!
This tree, also called the “soap berry tree”, is unique in that it synthesizes its own natural soap-like “saponins” that coat the shell of the fruit. When the fruits ripen and fall from the tree, local families harvest the windfall and then remove the inner fruit (seeds) from the outer shell, leaving the Soapnut ready to use.
The used shells of the Soapnuts are 100% biodegradable, so they reduce the amount of landfill as you just add them to your compost heap and they will turn into a natural fertilizer for your garden and plants to enjoy.
SoapNuts are extremely beneficial to humanity and our total environment. You will struggle to find another product which is as Natural, Eco friendly AND affordable as SoapNuts
