Canada's web store of the genuine Marseille soap.
Environmental Policy
While providing high quality soaps, we do everything in our power to limit our environmental footprint. However, we do think that it should be everyone's concern.
Let's work together!
Classic Marseille soap
A wise choice since it is bio degradable and for the same size (and what size!) has a life expectancy much higher than any other soaps since it doesn't melt.
A raw natural Marseille soap is made with vegetable oils and does not contain animal fats or elements from the petroleum-chemical industry. This soap is really basic and can be kept in the open air for many decades without deteriorating itself.
Therefore a Marseille soap is : clean, efficient, safe, sustainable and easy to use !
Buy the right soap
Liquid soaps and shower gel are fashion and advertised as easy to use. Don't worry ! you do not need decades of scholarships to use bar soaps ! We recommend that you consider bar soaps for a simple reason : for the same weight, they have a much interesting price/life time ratio. Liquid soaps and shower gels are more suitable for uses outside home, eg sports club or while traveling.
Soap packaging
Packaging a soap is a nonsense and not our forte. Therefore most of our Marseille soaps are sold "naked" with no packaging. We want to offer a genuine and true product, not a fancy package or a marketing concept. As a result, our policy is definitely anti-packaging.
We do however wrap soaps with recycled paper in order to protect them during the shipping process. Note that we apply a fee to any request for extra and fancy packaging.
We also encourage our customers to use bar soaps instead of shower gels for their everyday needs.
Bringing our soaps to you...
Au savon de Marseille goes a step further by using public transportation (or a bike!) for its home delivery service. However, in order to be reliable, we need for now to limit our home delivery area.
For customers living outside out delivery area, we ship our soaps via Canada Post. Be assured that we are constantly looking for solutions as close as possible to our environmental values and we should over time be able to extend our home delivery offer.
Help the environment by saving on shipping cost
Make a bulk order with friends and family and share shipping costs. Adding one extra kilogram does nothing on our flat shipping - delivery charges. Beside, do not forget that those charges are free if you buy for 75 $ or more.
