The Production Process of La Corvette Marseille Soap Flakes: Tradition Meets Modernity

La Corvette's Marseille soap flakes are produced following the original recipe, using the traditional cauldron cooking process, an ancient method that dates back to the 17th century. This process is still practiced by the master soap makers of Savonnerie du Midi, one of the last historic soap factories in Marseille. Founded in 1894, this factory keeps the authentic Marseille soap tradition alive, ensuring the quality of its products through the use of top-quality raw materials.

The soap flakes are a 100% natural product, certified by the Union of Professionals of Marseille Soap (UPSM), which protects the quality of true Marseille soap. This certification ensures that the soap is made exclusively from vegetable oils and follows the traditional soap-making process. The absence of added glycerin makes the soap hypoallergenic and suitable even for the most sensitive skin.
