How to use Marseille soap for your home maintenance?
The Marseille soap is the flagship product for personal hygiene. Used for centuries, it is also the essential ally for more environmentally friendly home maintenance.
Introduction to the world of Marseille soap
The manufacturing conditions for Marseille soap have evolved over the centuries to become the product we use today. But do you really know its origin?
History and tradition of Marseille soap
Marseille soap originated with the Gauls, who used it as a dye or ointment to treat skin conditions. Initially made from ash and animal fat, it was not until the 8th century that vegetable oils were introduced into its composition.
Its use spread and soap factories developed. But it was in the 17th century that Marseille soap truly earned its prestige. To prevent a decline in quality, Colbert’s decree of 1688 precisely defined the manufacturing conditions for this royal product. And it was in 1812 that a Napoleonic decree created the Marseille Soap brand, which led to the stamping of the cubes.
To carry the name today, the manufacture of Marseille soap must comply with very strict rules.

Our practical tips for optimal use of Marseille soap
There are many recipes for home maintenance. But did you know that Marseille soap is sufficient on its own?
Simple and effective use for home maintenance
For an effective and environmentally friendly multi-surface cleaner, forget industrial products. Simply rub your Marseille soap with a damp cloth before applying it directly to the surface to be cleaned. Safe for the surface and for you, its stain-removing ability requires no additives.
For dishes, rub your wet sponge against the Marseille soap. Its degreasing effect cleans all surfaces without risk of corrosion.
For your most delicate laundry, grate 50g of your Marseille soap into 1.5 liters of water (or use our specially dedicated flakes) and soak your clothes for several hours before rinsing them.
