These amazing little berry shells of the soap nut berry tree contain soap (saponin) which we can use to clean not only our clothes but vegetables, kitchens, pets and much more!
So how does it work? The soap nut shells release saponin (soap) when it comes in contact with water. The saponins then circulate as a natural surfactant (surface active ingredient / detergent). They break down the surface tension of the water and oil in the wash reducing the surface tension of the water aiding it in freeing dirt, grime and oils from clothes. Essentially this is how chemical detergents clean our clothes...but now you can do it without chemicals!
Soap nuts are highly recommended for those with allergies or sensitive skin.
They are 100% natural, free of synthetic chemicals and are hypoallergenic.
(Soap nuts are wonderful for use by those who are sensitive to the dyes, perfumes and chemicals used in most commercial detergents and cleansers. Most people who are irritated by such commercial products find soap nuts their ideal solution. Some people have seen their eczema and psoriasis clear up as a result of using them.) Soap nuts can be used for bathing and as a laundry detergent, and much more.
Soap nuts are economical, chemical-free, protect your clothes from bacteria and fungus, sustainable and they don’t pollute our water systems!

There are many kinds of shells that have saponin (chestnut is one). However the sapindus (soapnut) trees have an abundance. There are actually ten varieties of sapindus, but we only sell sapindus mukurossi, because these yield the most saponin (soap) when mixed with water. In nature saponin is a mild insecticide and anti-bacterial compound, it is used to repel bugs and fungus from tress naturally!

“…Hi, Yes we have been using the soap nuts in conjunction with essential oils for fragrance, in fact the nuts seem to condition as well as clean the clothes. They seem more effective than the previous detergents and they have handled some tough grime, as I’ve been working on some really dirty oily vehicles. We are going to use the suggestions you sent for other uses, but so far have not, however I feel more determined to recycle my grey water into the garden stock than ever. We will be buying more from you in the future, Many thanks friend!! Colin and Nic x…” To read more testimonials click here
