  • About Maurius Fabre

    Since 1900 and for four generations, in Salon-de-Provence France, the Marius Fabre family has been making soap that is cooked in a cauldron to traditional Marseille soap-making methods.

  • What is Black Soap?

    Black soap is a product made essentially from vegetable oils, caustic potash and vegetable soda. It represents an economical and ecological alternative to the many cleaning and maintenance products available on the market. Have you heard about it and would you like to adopt it? You should know that black soap is an extremely versatile product.

    It has been developed to be an unalterable product. It is therefore free of petrochemical ingredients and components.

    Black soap is therefore an essential solution for anyone wishing to clean or maintain with a natural product.

    To clean the floor : black soap is an excellent degreaser that you can use to clean floors. Thanks to its antibacterial properties, it cleans the floor and removes all kinds of impurities. Note that black soap can be used on all types of floors (tiles, terracotta, parquet, wood, etc.).

    For cleaning windows : black soap is a very effective product for cleaning glass surfaces. In addition to its cleaning action, it will degrease the surface, leaving a thin layer of "grease" that will protect the windows from stains and dirt. For best results, melt a teaspoon of your black soap in 2 litres of water.

    To polish copper and silverware : if your silverware and copper objects are tarnished and completely soiled, don't hesitate to use black soap to scrub them. To do this, you will need to dilute 4 to 5 tablespoons of black soap in a basin of warm or hot water. Then soak your objects in the basin for 5 to 10 minutes. Remove and clean your objects with a soft cloth.

    Other uses of black soap
    In addition to the above uses, black soap is also used to :

    - Cleaning greasy kitchen surfaces
    - Cleaning and reviving leather
    - Removing grease stains from textiles
    - Cleaning and degreasing barbecue grills

Authentic Marseille soap, when it is made according to traditional processes, is actually glycerine free.“Glycerine” is, however, listed in our soaps’ ingredients because some traces remain.
