nir-vana innovation network

This Spanish family company, established in 1921, has been manufacturing soap since its foundation, growing and adapting to market needs, without losing its natural identity. Five generations have been devoted to this activity maintaining their manufacturing process year after year and becoming a benchmark of high quality at national level. The company manufactures a full range of natural organic laundry soaps, a range of natural home cleaning products as well as dishwasher soaps. All of them are certified by Ecocert, being the first Spanish company of soaps and detergents to be granted this certification. These soaps have been exclusively made with products of plant origin, reducing the use of chemical products to the minimum which implies they have less impact on the water and the environment. Furthermore, they do not contain ingredients of animal origin and have not been tested on animals, therefore they can be used by vegetarians and vegan. They provide maximum efficiency, and a solution for different types of fabrics or dirt, while they take care of clothing. They are effective at low temperatures, thus contributing to saving energy resources. These soaps are not aggressive or spoil the fabrics, helping to extend the life of the garments. In addition to this, there is no need to use fabric softeners thus reducing economic and the environmental impact even more. They also protect the skin helping to prevent irritation or rashes in sensitive, atopic skins or skins with other kind of problems, being very suitable for the care of babies and toddlers’ clothes. Their natural perfume leaves a soft and durable aroma and within the range there is also available a product that has not added perfume. All liquid products are available in bulk sale, so that the consumer can refill in shops and reuse their original bottles, putting into practice a real responsible and zero waste use. The company also produces a range of ecological handmade soap for cosmetic use. These are certified by Bio.Inspecta, according to the BioVidaSana Standard, in Category I, “Ecologic Cosmetic Product”, with a minimum of 95% of organic farming ingredients. These natural soaps are made with ecological coconut and olive oil, which offers many benefits for skin, and makes soap very creamy; thus it can be used as face soap and for any other part of our body. Each soap variety is enriched with bio oils and extracts that provide specific properties in each case, along with pleasant essential oil scents. These soaps are handcrafted cold-produced in large blocks, which are then wire-cut into bars. This ecological range includes three premium soaps and 6 functional “all in one” solid soaps (essential, perfume-free, shaving, exfoliating, oily-skin and shampoo). All of them are zero waste and handmade. The company has the Handmade Seal granted by the Valencian Region. In 2021 the company launched another range of certified natural soaps, with Nature seal. This company is highly involved in Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and carries out different activities to this effect: environmental commitment, with products including ecologic labelling; soap donations to Red Cross and Charities in Spain, as well as international donations to NGOs in African countries. Business ethics: the whole company is run under an strict ethical code, which is available on their website and outlines all their commitments with clients, suppliers, workers, environment. This company is looking for wholesalers and distributors who sell certified ecological products to retail stores with interest in organic, traditional and high quality products. The type of cooperation expected is a long-term distribution services agreement.
