Soap flakes by ANSC are one of the best flakes available in Australia. These multi-purpose soaps can be used to wash clothes, dishes, and more. ANSC soap flakes are a fine example of businesses going zero-waste. These flakes are made from offcuts of natural soap blocks, so nothing goes to waste!

By switching to chemical-free grated soap, we can minimise the use of plastic bottles and prevent harsh chemicals from entering our homes. 

What are soap flakes?

Soap flakes are made from pure grated soap bars. These soap shavings are an eco-alternative to liquid soaps. Made from pure castile soap, these are kinder to us and the planet. 

• Hypoallergenic: These grated dish soaps are suitable for people with skin allergies. Most commercial soaps are full of chemicals that can irritate the skin. These flakes do not contain perfumes, dyes, or any other allergens. 
• Multipurpose: Flake soap made from pure plant-based ingredients has various uses. These bath soap flakes can be used to clean dishes, do laundry, wash hands, and even safely use on pets! 
• Provides a gentler clean: Soap flakes do not contain any harsh chemicals that ruin delicate fabrics like silk, wool etc. You can save up money on fabric softeners and an array of other detergents!
• Eco-friendly: No bleaches, dyes, GMOs, and other toxins are washed down the drain. These eco-flakes are 100% biodegradable. Moreover, as soap blocks and flakes are concentrated, transportation is easy. This translates into a lower carbon footprint. 
• Uses fewer resources: Soap granules are a sustainable eco-product. Their production uses fewer resources. 

Can you make your own soap flakes?

Yes! All you need is a block of soap and a cheese grater. Many chemical-free soap bars can be turned into soap flakes for laundry, dishes, or washing hands. 

• Grate the soap gently and store it in an airtight container. 
• To use as a liquid, boil the flakes in filtered water until dissolved.
• Allow the solution to cool and store in a reusable soap dispenser. 
• You can also add essential oils for fragrance. 
• This liquid soap is vegan; it should be used within two to three months. 

Are soap flakes good for laundry?

Shredded soap bars are an excellent all-purpose natural cleaner. These mild cleaners are better than detergents. Natural soaps thoroughly clean our clothes without leaving any residue. Most detergents are abrasive to natural fabrics like cotton or wool. This is because synthetic ingredients and microplastics attach themselves to the fibre. Washing flakes also eliminate the need for fabric softeners etc.
