Since 1900 and for four generations, in Salon-de-Provence, we have been perpetuating the traditional method of making Marseille soap, cooked in a cauldron.
This method has now been replaced by high-oleic sunflower oil, a very special oil with numerous benefits that aligns with the philosophy of the Marius Fabre soap factory: to produce natural products that respect both people and the environment.
Guaranteed free of dyes, perfumes, and additives, our Marseille soap flakes are recommended for gently and effectively washing all textiles, especially delicate fabrics (baby clothes, wool, silk, lace, etc.).
They are also biodegradable and phosphate-free.
Palm oil free
Authentic Marseille soap flakes, certified by the UPSM (Union of Marseille Soap Professionals).

How to make your own laundry detergent with soap flakes?
Hand washingDissolve 30g of soap flakes in 1 liter of very hot water. Shake well, then add another liter of hot water. For woolens, use cold water. Machine washingWith our new “palm oil-free” soap flake formula, we recommend the following steps to make your laundry detergent: • Place a small handful or 30g of flakes at the bottom of your detergent container. • Pour very hot water over the flakes to melt them (start with 1/2 liter). • Shake well. • Pour another 1/2 liter of very hot water to reach 1 liter of detergent. • Shake well. • Your detergent is ready! Some separation may occur in the detergent due to its natural formula. Simply shake the container vigorously to mix thoroughly again. **Practical Tips** Add a glass of white vinegar to the fabric softener compartment (it softens and descales). To scent your laundry, add a few drops of essential oils (lavender, tea tree, citrus, etc.). For perfectly white laundry, add a tablespoon of baking soda or a small handful of washing soda crystals. If you wish to scent your laundry with a few drops of essential oils, wait until it has cooled. To learn more about the many uses of Marseille soap, visit our blog.
