RED CLAY FOR DETOX AND MOISTURISING: This red clay soap bar from Zero Waste Path is perfect for anyone looking to wash more sustainably. It uses the same moisturising base recipe as the other products in the ZWP range, plus red clay, which provides an even more potent blend of essential oils.
ONLY NATURAL INGREDIENTS FOR AN ORGANIC SOAP: This bare soap uses pure, organic soap in combination with natural ingredients such as shea butter and coconut oil. ZWP extracts all oils using natural, cold press methods that don't rely on harsh industrial chemicals. The result is a stunning bar of soap, useful for both general washing and as a shaving soap.
VEGAN AND CRUELTY-FREE: This nourishing and rich soap is suitable for vegans and no ingredients or final product are ever tested on animals. The packaging is 100 percent recyclable, compostable, and made of unbleached cardboard.
MADE WITH RENEWABLE ENERGY IN CAMBRIDGE: This soap, like all of Zero Waste Path products, is handmade in the UK using 100% renewable energy. Purchasing this product helps to reduce carbon emissions as well as plastic pollution!
This handmade rich soap is incredibly moisturising due to its high content in red clay and shea butter. It creates a lovely soft lather and will give your skin an instant nourishing sensation when using it in the shower. Great for the face too.

At the beginning of 2016, the founders, Bianca and Giulio, decided to try and produce less waste after reading an article about Lauren Singer and her trash jar on her famous blog for a zero-waste lifestyle.
They committed themselves to try living as sustainably as possible and along the way they also started to produce more and more products that they then decided to make available to the public.
One of the reasons behind their desire to start their own brand was that it is really hard to find information about the waste and practices used to make products before they get to the consumer, and they also realised this is even true for many sustainable products.
They have created a company that is not only zero-waste and sustainable in the ingredients and final packaging choices but also in every step of the production chain.
