Eco-Friendly Soap Nuts

Soapnuts are environmentally friendly berries that are grow on trees and are a substitute for washing detergent! You place a few Soapnuts in a small washbag and place them in your washing machine to clean your clothing or place a few in a bag in the cutlery section of your dishwasher. The average 250 gram bag of nuts will do 200 400 washes so they are extremely economical!

Plus a free muslin washbag with each order!

Please note that we are unable to post these outside Australia due to customs restrictions.

Soapnuts contain a natural substance Saponin which is similar to soap. When the shells come in contact with water, the saponin is released and suds are produced. They clean very effectively but will not leave any smell on your clothes. If you want your washing to smell wonderful just add a few drops of essential oils! The Soapnuts have a very distinctive vinegar type odour which will not be transferred to your clothing or dishes!

Soapnuts are extremely good for colours and also soften your clothing so there is no need for fabric softeners. They are very popular in Europe and the US and the nuts can be re-used for 4 6 consecutive washes and then you can place the used shells in the garden for compost. They are suitable for people with nut allergies (as they are really a berry) and for people with sensitive skin.
