This is a regular chance to see a working soaperie which dates from the 1920s. It also happens to be the oldest and last working soaperie operating the coldprocess method in the world. The Cold Process is known as the natural way of soap making.

(Historically there were two  mainstream soapmaking methods, the Cold Process and the boiling process. Coldprocess soaps are much stickier and more humectant but are not suited to fast flow mass production. Boiling Process soaps have the glycerine removed chemically and are very easy to plod, mill,colour,fragrance and stamp at high production rates.)
