What better substance than soap itself to package soap in? During her master's program, designer Jonna Breitenhuber had the idea for SOAPBOTTLE. Fundamentally, it's a straightforward fix for a really significant issue. Billions of plastic soap dispensers, shampoo bottles, and conditioner tubes end up in landfills or the ocean each year. When Breitenhuber was searching for a suitable material to replace plastic containers, she had an epiphany. Simply put the liquid soap into a solid soap packaging! 

The stylish, zero-waste ‘SOAPBOTTLE’ product gives you additional soap in addition to doing away with those annoying throwaway plastic bottles! Inside, each 'SOAPBOTTLE' holds 100ml of liquid body wash and has a sleek, rectangular shape.

You can pour the liquid soap out of the 'SOAPBOTTLE' in the same manner as you would milk from a carton by simply shaving the designated corner off. The bottle itself can be used as a soap bar after the liquid runs out and can be reused until it finally dissolves into thin air, producing no plastic waste at all. The only thing remaining is the metal clip, which is reusable and fastens onto the soap bottle to enable opening and closing while in use.

Every ‘SOAPBOTTLE’ has only natural components; in fact, the label is entirely recyclable and composed of recycled paper. The "bottle" itself has a hole in the middle so you can hang it on a wall in your bathroom or another location by stringing a ribbon through it. Alternatively, you might use the 'SOAPBOTTLE' as a loofah by docking it on a sponge. The ‘SOAPBOTTLE’ is currently available in three distinct colors and a standard 100ml size: Ever Green (Herbal), Light Blue (Gentle), and Spicy Orange (Earthy + Citrusy). However, Breitenhuber hopes to expand the line to include additional sizes, fragrances, and even formulas such as shampoo and conditioner.

The empty bottle can be used as hand soap after the SOAPBOTTLE's liquid content is used up and eventually “washes away.” Without sacrificing sustainability, the 'SOAPBOTTLE' reinvents commonplace objects and elevates your personal hygiene experience to a new, pleasurable, and meaningful level. A gentle and replenishing body cleanser composed of natural components comes in 100 ml bottles. Even now, materials used to make packaging, like plastic, take more than 400 years to break down. The team has revolutionized the notion of packaging-free cosmetics by transforming the product into packaging and creating a sustainable ‘SOAPBOTTLE’ for liquid care products.

In contrast to another packaging, the ‘SOAPBOTTLE’ is composed of a soap formula that may be used exclusively as hand soap and gradually "washes away" along with the wastewater. Ultimately, trash may be totally avoided because it breaks down in the sewage plant in a few of days.

Packaging: They use oils, caustic soda, and organic substances to create the soap for their packaging. The substance and any used water wash away together as the container is utilized. Within a few days, it fully decomposes in the sewage plant, leaving no waste behind. Everything is designed to break down naturally and efficiently.

Metal closure: The closure is stamped and bent into the desired shape. It is made of stainless steel. Fortunately, it is also reusable! Just clip the last bit of metal onto the subsequent ‘SOAPBOTTLE’. Because it is composed entirely of metal, recycling it after it is no longer needed is simple. 

Paper label: Eco-friendly colors are printed on recycled paper, which is used to make the label. It is recyclable once more.

'Making the future is the best method to forecast it.' - Peter Drucker 

This is one of our favorite quotations about sustainability from management consultant, author, and educator Peter Drucker. This saying is very powerful because it can be used to so many different aspects of your life. Take "the bull by the horns" and be the change you wish to see in the world. 

We live by this idea of building the future; it is a guiding philosophy that directs our daily actions and choices.
