About the Product
A 20 cm-wide Swedish-made scrubbing brush in wood with softer synthetic bristles. Attachment for a long handle. Designed for efficient cleaning of larger areas in less time (floors, terraces, patios, etc.). Levangen has synthetic bristles and is suitable both for cleaning and for treating decking with soap and cold water.
The name comes from the brushes that were once used to scrub heavily soiled boat decks.
Please note that the brush is sold without a handle, as it is difficult to ship by mail. However, it fits standard handles (22 mm in diameter), which are available at all hardware stores and well-stocked grocery stores.
Usage
Step-by-step guide: how to use the scrubbing brush:
- Prepare a mixture of warm water and soap.
- Dip the brush in the solution and let the fibers soften.
- Scrub with even pressure in sweeping or circular motions to loosen dirt and deposits.
- Adjust the pressure according to the surface for the best results without damaging the material.
- Rinse the surface thoroughly with clean water after cleaning.
- Rinse the brush as well and let it dry in a well-ventilated place for a longer lifespan and lasting quality.

What sets Västerbottenssåpa apart from “ordinary” soaps bought at the grocery store?
Västerbottenssåpa is a circular product made from reused, purified, and saponified rapeseed oil—entirely without new oil raw materials. The soap has properties similar to linseed oil soap and is naturally superfatted. This means it retains a greater surplus of nourishing oils after saponification than ordinary soap from the grocery store, making it especially effective, conditioning, and replenishing for your surfaces.
Frying oil becomes soap: “Eco-friendly and climate-smart”
It has always been important to us to make real soap, without adding unnecessary chemicals, and to deliver nothing but PURE soap.
The history of Västerbottenssåpa began in the 1920s, when great-grandmother Fredrika made her own fine soap at home on the farm in Hornsjö, Vilhelmina.
Three generations later, Fredrika’s legacy of living sustainably and frugally, and reusing materials, lives on in the family—albeit in a modern version adapted to the times we live in today.
Our soap, based on Fredrika’s recipe, has been given packaging, a label, and a name—Västerbottenssåpa.
Instead of the sheep fat Fredrika used, Västerbottenssåpa is now made from used cooking oil collected from selected local restaurants. It is mostly rapeseed oil or a corn and rapeseed oil blend—but NEVER palm oil or animal fat.
The oil, which is purified and saponified, then forms the basis of all our soap-based cleaning products.

Let us tell you how it all fits together
Because the soap is made from recycled raw materials—that is, it is circular—the product’s CO2 emissions are very low. One bottle of soap, including production, packaging, and transportation, has CO2 emissions of approximately 237 g. This can be compared with the emissions from producing 1 kg of palm oil, which are approximately 10 kg.
-
Canola oil is produced as a food product
-
Rapeseed oil is used by restaurants throughout the country.
-
Västerbottenssåpa sources the oil that is purified at the small factory in Vilhelmina. It is then saponified into soft soap.
