UGF/CDN Soap

As well as producing their two main products, Shea Butter and Dried Mango, UGF/CDN also produces its own soap, which it has done since the association’s first creation.

At the moment, the soap is produced in small quantities and is primarily used by the women who work at the group, for washing their work uniforms and other cloths and materials used in the workplace. However, since November 2014, the soap has started to be sold to any visitors to the group.

The production of soap is overseen by 2 women at the group, who complete the whole process themselves.

Soap Production:
The women at UGF/CDN use mainly shea butter oil and cocao oil to make the soap, to which a solution of sodium carbonate is added to ensure a smooth mixture. The sodium carbonate solution is slowly added to the mixture of oils, whilst the mixture is mixed in one direction. Silicate, Neutraliser and Perfume are then added to this mixture. The mixture is then turned until it has reached concentration. The concentrated soap is put into a mould a left to dry for at least 5 hours before removing from the mould. The soap is then ready to use.
