Green Washing

Greenwashing or green washing?

Greenwashing is when companies (or sometimes individuals like Bono fide rock stars and so on) mask their dubious environmental practices in a smog of smug: you’ve probably seen the lovely oil companies and their adverts showing glorious alpine landscapes and a love of nature and the environment.

However, we Soap Dragons love green washing - we make and sell Soap With Attitude, but an attitude that promotes sustainable, green values. All our soaps are:

• Vegan

• Completely plastic free, including the packaging

• Palm oil-free

• Free of artificial fragrances and colours

• Produced, stored and distributed without any single-use plastics

• Our boxes are made from 100% recycled card

• Packaged with recyclable, acid-free materials and UHU stic ReNature vegan glue

• Not tested on animals and cruelty free

• No nano-products are used

• Made with supplies from ethical manufacturers who adhere to Fair Trade standards

• Packed with natural essential oils (except Smooth Operator, which is made for sensitive skin types)

Low-To-No-Waste

At The Soap Dragons, we strive to produce as little waste as possible with our goal being Zero Waste. Our unique Holding Out For A Zero and Wasteland soaps bars are upcycled from the off-cuts and wonky ones to ensure minimal waste. We are not at Zero yet - but we’re getting there, just like British Rail (before it was broken up and sold off…).
