This pump fits our 0.5l bottles. The bottles are of very good quality, so is the pump but it is a wearing part and it may need to be replaced. Here you can order a new pump. You cut the tube that goes down into the bottle yourself so that it is long enough, it should not sit tight against the bottom, then a vacuum can form in the bottle.
You sort your old pump as hard plastic after removing the metal spring inside. The spring must be sorted as metal.
What makes Västerbottens soap different from "regular" soaps that you buy in the grocery store?
Västerbotten soap has similar properties to a linseed oil soap, which is thus an overfatted soap. Other soaps that you buy in e.g. the grocery store is not overfat and therefore not as efficient. Soaps and soaps have varying amounts of excess oils and fats, that is, the part of fat that remains after saponification. Västerbottens soap has a larger surplus and is therefore extra caring and re-greasing.
A story of 100 years of sustainable soap making
Let us tell you how it all comes together
Because the soap is made from recycled raw materials, i.e. is circular, the CO2 emissions for the product are very low. A bottle of soap including production, packaging and transport has a CO2 emission of approx. 237 g. This can be compared to the emissions for producing 1 kg of palm oil, which is approx. 10 kg.
Rapeseed oil is produced as food.
Rapeseed oil is used in restaurants around the country
Västerbottenssåpa sources the oil that is purified in the small factory in Vilhelmina. It is then saponified into soap
The soap is sent to you by mail.
Contains only three ingredients
Our soap contains only water, soap (saponified rapeseed oil) 15-30% and any perfume
