Liquid hand soap brand Softsoap is setting itself apart by providing foaming hand soap tablets, a refill option in tablet form to reduce plastic bottle waste. This fresh new take on foaming hand soap works with a refillable, recyclable aluminum bottle and the tablets make it easy to replenish hand soap as needed.
When it's time to refill an empty hand soap container, a tablet can be dropped into the bottle and filled with water so that it will fizz and foam to create a product that will lather. According to the brand, "The Softsoap Foaming Tablet Starter Kit uses 71% less plastic than a traditional foaming plastic soap bottle. By using the Softsoap Foaming Tablets Refill Kits, you'll ultimately use 92% less plastic than traditional hand soap refills."
