Oketani Soap
Additive-free, fragrance-free soap and cleansers, kind to sensitive skin and the environment.
"Oketani Hanbai — soap gentle on sensitive skin" is an additive-free soap and cleanser brand designed to be used with peace of mind every day, even by those troubled by skin problems, those who dislike scented daily goods, and households with small children. With simple ingredients and careful methods, it continues making daily goods kind to both people and the planet.
Why We Love It
There's no flashy packaging or fragrance, but use it and you'll understand its quality. Soap made by the traditional kettle-boiling method cleans thoroughly yet leaves the skin moist after washing. For those with delicate skin or who dislike fragrance, this "add nothing" simplicity is the greatest relief. A capable brand that makes you want to entrust all the "washing" in the house to it, from dishcloths to your face.
PROFILE About the Company / Workshop
Oketani Hanbai was born to deliver daily goods that even sensitive skin can use with peace of mind, carrying on the spirit of Oketani Soap, which has kept making additive-free soap by the traditional kettle-boiling saponification method. As a small soap maker, it continues uncompromising making in its ingredients and methods.
It uses natural oils and fats such as beef tallow and coconut oil, and to draw out the gentleness of the soap base itself, it adds no synthetic surfactants, colorants or artificial fragrances. A feature is that, while additive-free, it pursues a balance of lather, cleansing power and a moist feel after washing.
Its signature product, the frame-kneaded bath soap "CLASSY ALOMATIC," is finished by the traditional method of pouring slowly kettle-boiled soap into frames and air-drying it. Beyond bath use, it offers a lineup covering various scenes of life — liquid laundry soap, soap shampoo, kitchen soap, and the bleach cleanser "Max Eco."
Delivered nationwide from its factory in Amagasaki City, Hyogo, Oketani soap is sold not only on e-commerce sites but also at physical stores such as Hands and at authorized dealers on various online malls. Precisely because they are used every day, it wants people to choose daily goods that put skin and the environment first — a wish embodied in each and every product.
Simple-formula additive-free soap with no fragrance or preservatives
Committed to a method that adds no synthetic fragrance, preservatives or other additives to a soap base handmade from food-grade oils and fats, it pursues a gentle washing feel that minimizes the burden on the skin.
Making that supports atopic and sensitive skin and small children
It offers a fragrance-free, low-irritation lineup so that even those with delicate skin or who dislike scented daily goods can use it with peace of mind every day. A feature is that the whole family — from babies to the elderly and even pets — can use it.
Highly biodegradable cleansers kind to both people and the planet
Its soap components are said to break down naturally in about 24 hours after going down the drain, advancing product-making mindful not only of the skin but of the environment. Through daily bath time and laundry, it supports a sustainable lifestyle.
A soap-based lineup spanning bath, hair care, laundry and kitchen
Starting with the frame-kneaded bath soap "CLASSY ALOMATIC," it offers soap-based products for every scene of life — liquid laundry soap, soap shampoo, kitchen soap, and the bleach cleanser "Max Eco."
