The alchemy of the past and the technology of today : a unique recipe! At the Marius Fabre company, the traditional method of fabrication is still used, supported by chemical analysis of the paste at the end of the process, taking the time necessary to produce «real» Marseilles soap as it should be done.
"For over 100 years and through three generations, our family has been trying to keep our ever threatened know-how alive : the fabrication of the true Marseilles soap conserving the techniques of saponification in cauldrons.
Our secret is the knack passed down through generations, from father to son, then from father to daughter.
Our primary concern is the high quality of our raw materials.
Our soap is made using only vegetable oils i.e. olive, coco-nut or palm. No colorants or synthetic substances are added.This exceptional purity renders it beneficial and environmental-friendly.
All our products follow the same line of thought.
This know-how, patience and rigour are the rules which allow the Marius Fabre Company to produce a Marseilles soap of peerless quality.
Following the footsteps of my father, I have as a goal to carry on the tradition, with the help of my husband, while modernising the packaging of our products."
