Product Special Features

The quality pressed olive oil in this product is processed into a soap that has excellent cleaning, conditioning and subsequent lubricating effects on wool and silk textiles. A mild soap-based detergent is created using sugar tenside; this product is easy to use even with hard water and retains all its positive properties.

Origin and properties of the individual ingredients

OLIVE SOAP: The olive groves of the Mediterranean region of Italy, Spain and Greece produce fruit from which organic quality olive oil is extracted by mechanical processes such as pressing and centrifugation. The saponified oil is the main ingredient in Olive Wool and Silk Detergent. Olive oil is the best oil raw material for mild soap with a subsequent lubricating effect. Its balanced composition of fatty acids, its healing, harmonising effect on the heart and blood circulation and the remarkable evolution of the olive tree over a seven-year rhythm show the special relationship of this oil to man. CRAPE OIL SOAP: rapeseed oil, soaped with potassium caustic, serves to enhance its cleansing power. Along with flax and sunflowers, rapeseed is one of the few oilseed crops that are grown in our mild central European climate to produce oil, and it is also of organic quality. ETHANOL: obtained by fermenting starchy plants such as maize and potatoes. Ethanol helps to keep the soap liquid and also improves the detergent's ability to dissolve grease. SUGAR SOAP: Sugar, starch and coconut fat are the raw materials used to obtain the sugar tenside used. The proportion of sugar tenside is adjusted to the soap content of the detergent in such a way that it serves to keep the calcium soap formed in hard water from dispersing finely and preventing deposits on the laundry.

Biological degradation

Vegetable oil soap has the excellent property of combining immediately after use with the calcium, always present in waste water, to form calcium soap. This neutralises the active surface effect attacking living organisms (primary degradation) within a few hours. The calcium soap is then 100 % degraded by micro-organisms into carbon dioxide and water (secondary degradation). Ethanol can be mixed with water without restriction and is therefore reintegrated into the natural cycle within a few hours. In the process of making sugar wetting agents, the plant raw materials of starch, sugar and fat are extracted, but the parts remain fully preserved in their natural structure. It is therefore easy for microorganisms to quickly and completely break down these wetting agents.

Caution: At temperatures below 10°C the product changes and becomes somewhat thicker and cloudy, which disappears again when hot or after shaking slightly.
