About Us

Welcome to Regen Soap

Where it all started
Where it all started

We are in a health, fertility, and environmental crisis. Next time you grab a bottle of soap, take a minute to look up the ingredients on a trusted website like ewg.org. You will be surprised, especially if you look at risks for cancer, allergies, and reproductive toxicity. We saw this on many brands marketed as "eco-friendly", and it pissed us off, so we made Regen Soap.

Our mission is to take the same principles that farms took towards regenerative beef, and apply them to soap making and cleaning products. We make soap that contributes to your health and lessens the impact on our ecosystems or even negates it. That's what we mean by regenerative soap.

We make our products in the USA and source from American suppliers, and we use organic as much as possible.

Gray Water and our Ecosystem

Septic systems and municipal water treatment plants have a tough job. All that most treatment systems do is filter out particles and disinfect germs. There are certain "forever chemicals" like PFAS that simply do not go away with conventional water treatment and require expensive reverse osmosis systems to filter out.

It's easy to kill germs; it's expensive to get a soap that is cleansing but doesn't nuke the environment. Over 20% of safe drinking water act (SDWA) violations are from disinfection byproducts that come from the treatment process [1]. Triclosan, an antimicrobial agent, was in 75% of soaps in 2016 and was around for 44 years before it was banned by the FDA [2].

While it's advisable to filter your drinking water, our plants and wildlife do not have the same luxury. There are even reports of Glyphosate, a popular pesticide, in our air and rainwater [3]. We believe the best solution is to stop putting contaminants into the water supply, and soap is one big part of that. We're committed to producing soap that doesn't contaminate the Earth on its way from the drain back to your faucet.

Commitment to Sustainability

No Fragrance Oils - All of our soaps are scented with essential oils only, and we will never allow synthetic fragrance oils in our soap. Shady practices allow manufacturers to simply write "fragrance" on a bottle without disclosing what was used to scent a product. Many nice smelling natural fragrances are expensive, so synthetics have been made widely available. That said, you don't need a lot of essential oil to scent a soap. We default to nature.

No Unsustainable Palm Oil - Palm oil is the world’s most versatile vegetable oil and has unique properties for soap making. When produced unsustainably, palm oil is a major contributor to deforestation and reduces the world's habitat for Orangutans and other wildlife. All of our palm oil is sourced from [RTSO](https://rspo.org/) verified suppliers. Even then, we avoid palm oil when possible and use Sunflower oil in our body wash.

No Greenwashing - We do not greenwash. We will NEVER stuff our products full of synthetics, add some fancy marketing, list off a couple bad things we don't have, and call it a day. When we say "all natural soap", we mean we use essential oils for fragrances, natural preservatives like Rosemary extract, and NO unsustainable oils or isolated fatty acids.

Every purchase of Regen Soap is a financial vote towards a cleaner, healthier, and more regenerative tomorrow. We’re on a mission to stop contaminating our water supply and we invite you to join us in this journey.
