Waste Smart Program

Soaps create some recyclable paper waste from the labels. Currently
there is no way for removing synthetic chemical fragrances from waste
water, soaps without then do not add toxic chemicals into the
bay. That's why Garimo's Real Soap started making the natural laundry soap with
orange essential oil, and not just for the awesome scent but more for
the degreasing abilities.
