Soap 2o was developed to be an effective hand cleaning product that reduces the soap industry’s impact on the planet. Wrapped in a PVA soluble film, Soap2o products stop at the customer, with no waste to dispose of and 100% recyclable packaging.
- Soap2o works closely with their charity partner Made Blue Foundation to donate 1,000 litres of fresh drinking water for every 30 sachets sold

Solution
- Reduced Storage Requirements
- Due to the small PVA film capsules, the storage requirements are drastically reduced.
- 10 pallets of standard soap would be 32 feet tall if stacked on top of each other, and the equivalent amount of Soap2o would be just 1.75 feet tall.
- Reduced CO2 Emissions
- Due to the greatly reduced quantities, the CO2 emissions from transporting the soap are also greatly reduced.
- 10 pallets of standard soap would produce 1.55 tonnes of CO2 emissions, the equivalent quantity of Soap2o being transported the same distance only produces 0.035 tonnes of CO2.
