Easy-to-use soap bases

A guide to melt and pour soap

Melt and pour is one of the simplest, yet most versatile and efficient soapmaking techniques.

As the name suggests, it involves melting a soap base in a pan or commercial-sized vessel, adding fragrance oils and colour, and then pouring into a mould or block. This re-solidifies as a beautiful, high-performance soap — perfect for industrial, mass market operations or for small-scale, craft purposes.

The soap base itself is a ready-made formulation which contains glycerin, fatty acids and a range of other organic ingredients. Produced through ‘saponification’ — the mixing of fats and an alkali (such as lye) — our soap bases cure for up to four week before use.
