Our Core Values
Conservation, Empathy, Health, Integrity, Sustainability
Conservation
We donate a percentage of our soap sales to the Save the Tasmanian Devil Appeal (STDA). This supports research being conducted by the University of Tasmania, such as developing a vaccine cure for Devil Facial Tumour Disease (DFTD). In this way, we hope to help make a difference to the lives of Tasmania’s faunal emblem. This also means that our customers are participating in supporting the health of Tasmanian Devils. We encourage everyone visiting our website to donate to this worthy cause.
Empathy
We value and respect the opportunity to be part of your personal care regime. We liken ourselves to pilots who do the safety checks on their planes before flying, and then fly with you. We have tested our soaps on ourselves, our family and our friends. We absolutely love them and hope you do too!
Health
We are passionate about using natural Tasmanian ingredients to make soap that is safe for people. We use scientifically calculated formulations and comply with Australian cosmetic safety standards. We are registered with the Australian Government’s Department of Health regulatory body for soap and soap makers: the Australian Industrial Chemicals Introduction Scheme (AICIS). In addition, each ingredient meets public health and work, health and safety (WHS) plus environmental risk assessments accorded by the Australian Inventory of Chemical Substances (the Inventory).
Integrity
We are ethical, honest and trustworthy in our interpersonal relationships with all people. We do this by ensuring that our soaps are made only from Tasmanian ingredients that comply with all Australian health regulatory bodies and by insisting that our packaging has planet-friendly credentials so that you can trust our products. We also aim to make your experience with our soaps, and our company, a pleasure.
Sustainability
We work in harmony with the Tasmanian environment, fellow farmers, Tasmanian businesses and the customers who buy and use our products. The ingredients used in our soaps are natural and locally sourced. Many have official recognitions, such as organic certification. Our skin care soap cardboard packaging is 100% PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) and also certified as an SFI (Sustainable Forestry Initiative) – it is renewable, recyclable and compostable. In addition, the cardboard for our toothsoap packaging is PEFC certified and also accredited with Responsible Forestry Practices (RFP). Our brand aligns with the world movement towards regenerative practices through closed-loop systems.
