Description
- ACO & COSMOS ORGANIC CERTIFIED SOAP BARS: Our organic soap bars consist of pure plant-based Sodium Cocoate and are the purest soaps in the world. The soaps are super organic, empower women and help save the rainforest.
- EMPOWERING WOMEN - More than half of our suppliers are women, because harvesting coconuts involves less physical labour than traditional crops. They tell us that for the first time they are able to monetise their land themselves, which they have always owned. The Tolai people in New Britain have a matrilineal system of inheritance
- MADE FROM 100% ORGANIC, RAW, VIRGIN & COLD PRESSED COCONUT OIL - ACO COSMOS Organic Certified. Reliable coconut oil from a single source (single-origin): Produced on the Gazelle Peninsula on the island of New England in Papua New Guinea. Not refined, deodorized or bleached, preservative-free, fragrance-free, colorant-free, palm oil-free, unhydrogenated
- HANDMADE, HANDPACKED & PLASTIC FREE - Wild harvested by local farmers who are paid above "fair trade" standards prices. Eco-friendly (no plantations) & "cruelty-free" (no picking monkeys)
- PERSONNEL DEVELOPMENT & SUSTAINABLE EMPLOYMENT - The number of employees has increased to over 40. The coconuts provide the main income for over 200 local farming families who have long-term wild collection contracts with Niugini Organics. We also support about 20 small vehicle owners who supplement their income and transport the village farmers' nuts to the factory.
