Everything you need to clean up and tidy up conservatories, greenhouses, balconies and patios.
The trall soap lasts a long time and has the same fine properties as our other soaps. Clean the wooden trolley with soap and levang. If the trolley is attacked by lichens and moss, use the coarser levan, the softer one if the purpose is to clean and treat.
Scrub pots and utensils clean with soap and the scrub brushes provided. A thorough cleaning of spades and pots makes gardening more enjoyable but also prevents vermin from spreading.
You can also clean garden furniture and boats with liquid soap, scrub brush and cloth. Västerbottens soap has a nurturing effect on all natural materials, wood and stone absorb the excess fat in the soap and prevent the materials from drying out and cracking.
How much soap do you need?
Cleaning: 1 dl of soap to 10 liters of HOT water.
Treatment: 1 liter of soap to 10 liters of COLD water.
The same soap is used for cleaning and treatment.

Rengör trall så här:
- Skura trallen ren från smuts, alger, mögel med varmt vatten och såpa. Välj borste efter behov. I paketet ingår grova borstar för hård smuts som tex alger/mögel.
Syftet här är att rengöra och det finns olika typer av trall och olika typer av smuts så här får du göra en bedömning av vilka redskap och produkter i paketet du behöver. När man är klar ska det vara rent och inte finnas lös smuts på ytan. Använd trasan för att torka upp / torka bort om du skurar lös orenheter från ytan.
Behandla trall så här:
- När trallen är ren (behöver inte vara torr men ren är viktigt) kan du behandla den med den feta Västerbottenssåpa som följer med i paketet (dunken). Alla våra såpor är överfettade. Det är överskottsfettet i såpan som har en behandlande effekt. Använd kallt vatten och rejält med såpa när du behandlar.
- 1l såpa i en 10l skurhink - resten kallt vatten, är ett bra mått. Använd gärna den mjukare levangen för behandling. Du kan också lägga trasan över levangen så som bilden visar för att stryka ut såpblandningen.
- Observera att hur mycket såpa som går åt beror på träslag och skick. Ett mjukare träslag som t ex furu suger åt sig mer än ett hårdare som t ex lärk.
Ett uttorkat äldre trä suger åt sig mer än t ex en ett nytt tryckimpregnerat virke.
Du kommer att märka när träet inte längre suger åt sig av såpan, då är träet mättat. - Låt trallen torka och känn på ytan, ju fler strykningar med kallt vatten och såpa desto lenare yta får du. Upprepa tills dess att du är nöjd.
- När man såpar en trall (eller annan yta av trä) blir den matt, len och smutsavstötande. Damm, pollen, gräs, löv kommer inte att fastna. Ytan blir behaglig att vistas på och lätt att borsta/sopa av.
(Vill man ha en blank yta fungerar det inte att såpa, då behöver man använda en annan metod)
Användbara tips:
-
Rengör sådant som angripits av mögel, lavar, alger eller mossa med såpa och borste.
-
Såpskura trämöbler och golv så behandlas de samtidigt som de blir rengjorda.
-
Trä som såpskuras blir inte blankt utan får en “sidenmatt” yta. Eftersom att ytan inte blir klibbig drar den heller inte till sig damm och pollen och är därmed lättstädad. Skura rent trätrall med varmt / ljummet vatten och såpa. För att behandla, skura med kallt vatten och 1l såpa till 10l vatten.
Specifikation:
- Vår såpa innehåller endast vatten, såpa (förtvålad rapsolja) 15-30% och eventuell parfym.

Övrig information:
- Trä är ett levande material vars utseende förändras med tiden samt beroende av yttre omsätndigheter som väder, vind, väta, sol och påväxt av alger och mossor. Alla träslag är dessutom olika och reagerar olika på behandling med såpa.

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.

Here's how to use the bar soap for best results
Moisten the dirty wooden surface with water. Select brush.
Very stubborn dirt: hard brush.
Lightly soiled surface / sensitive materials : Soft brush.
Scrub the surface with a brush, HOT water and soap.
Dry. Now you have probably loosened some dirt that needs to be wiped or rinsed off the surface.
Treat with COLD water and soap. Now that the surface is cleaned, it's time to treat with cold water and soap. Soak the scrubbing rag in soapy water mixed about 1/10 and soap the surface. Repeat this step until these surfaces feel smooth and pleasant to stay on (when dry, it should feel smooth). The same method can be used for any wood that is not lacquered/painted or treated in such a way that the wood no longer absorbs the soap. Please note that soap never makes it shiny, eg teak furniture needs to be oiled after soaping if you want the shiny surface.
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
Our Cleaning Tools
With us you will find a large selection of cleaning tools made from natural and recycled materials.
Everything from scrub brushes (oven, panel, stove and other brushes in different sizes, materials and shapes), to glass hob scrapers, different types of cleaning sponges and dish cloths.
Common questions
Can I soap our trolley, which is made of pressure-treated wood?
Yes, you absolutely can. Your trolley will be pleasant to stay on, the surface will be silky smooth, slightly waxed and thus easy to keep clean. Pollen and dust will not stick as it can if the surface is a little "oily".
Does the soap affect the durability of my pressure-impregnated plank?
Well, it is the case that pressure-treated wood today usually maintains very good quality, and what determines how long a "printed" wood lasts is precisely the pressure-treated wood, not the surface treatment. But you can of course influence how the surface feels and looks, if you choose soap the surface will be matte and smooth. If you choose oil, it will be shinier.
Should I have cold or hot water when I scrub?
You cannot treat a dirty surface, so first you need to clean it. This is done with warm water and soap. With a coarse brush and soap, you can remove much more dirt than you think. It is possible to "save" things that actually look a bit hopeless from the start. Give it a try before you replace the trolley, it might work! Of course, everything depends on the starting situation and the material, but you are often pleasantly surprised by what a coarse levang and soap can do.
When the surface is clean, use cold water and soap. Use a soft brush and or a cloth. Mix approx. 1l of soap with 9l of water = scrubbing bucket. The water should feel greasy from the soap. Go over the trolley and let the soap soak in. You notice when the material stops absorbing the excess fat in the soap. A new plank or a plank made of a harder type of wood will absorb less than a soft and porous plank.
How much soap is needed?
It depends on the condition and type of wood. A porous, dried out pine plank absorbs more soap than a new pressure impregnated plank. But a rule of thumb is about 1l of soap / 30m2. Mix 1l of soap with 9l of water = a bucket, and the solution will be easy to handle.
Can I repent and oil after I soap?
Yes, of course you can. Soap is a type of soap not a type of oil, impregnation or paint. Should you find that you have too much soap in / on the trolley, just scrub once more with only warm water and a brush.
We have lasered wooden trellis on the balcony. Can we still use the soap?
It's a bit hard to answer without having seen it but you can definitely use the soap to clean the trolley. But whether it will absorb the excess fat and get that silky matte surface is hard to know. If the laser has clogged the wood, it will not absorb regardless of what product you put on it, but if it still "breathes" and absorbs the fat, you can certainly achieve a certain effect in any case. You will notice that quite quickly when you try it. But at least it will clean.
We usually wash clean and then oil once a year. Should you oil after the soap or is it not necessary?
Whether you oil or not is a matter of taste. The surface becomes matt and smooth if soaped. If you oil, that effect disappears and the surface becomes a little shinier. If the wood is pressure impregnated, the quality of the pressure impregnation is primarily decisive for durability and longevity. It is the surface that is affected by the type of treatment you choose.
How much soap do you need?
It is estimated that about 1 liter of soap is used per 30 m2
Can you use the soap for both treatment and cleaning or do you use something else for cleaning?
You can use our soap for both cleaning, then you use 1 dl of soap for 10 liters of VAMRT water and for treatment, then you use 1 liter of soap for 10 liters of COLD water.
Can you soap an impregnated deck?
It is fine to soap a trolley that has been impregnated.
