5L Pomace Olive Oil for Soap Making

5L Pomace Olive Oil for Soap Making

R550

R110 / L

Bulk maker-friendly format • Traditional soap-making ingredient • Flexible formulations

A practical olive-oil base for cold- and hot-process soap makers seeking bulk value. Oleic-rich and suitable for correctly calculated olive-rich soap recipes.

Traditional soap making transforms fats and oils through saponification. Different ingredients contribute different fatty-acid profiles and influence the character of the finished bar. Makers should formulate by weight and calculate alkali requirements using the specification of the actual batch.

Soap making with alkalis requires gloves, eye protection, suitable ventilation and accurate lye calculations. Store oil sealed away from heat and sunlight.

For cosmetic and external use only. Not for cooking or eating.
