Why choose
biodegradable soap?

Water flows down the drain after washing and we don’t consider the long term consequences. Many products contain harsh or even toxic ingredients that cause great harm to our precious water eco-system.
Saponera offers an alternative to reduce our impact. No synthetic preservatives, no detergents, no foaming agents. The ingredients are made purely from plants that naturally biodegrade in nature, as they should.
