BATH SOAP MANUFACTURING
[EIRI/EDPR/1527] (J.C.320)
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
It goes without saying that soap is indispensable to our daily life. Accordingly, the manufacturing industry should continue to develop as one of the most important industries.
Soap may broadly be classified by use as follows:-
a) Soap household (toilet soap, laundry soap etc.)
b) Industrial soap.
c) Special soap.
Among them, the consumption of special soap which is used for medical purposes and shampooing is not large. Industrial soap which is important, being used in the textile industry etc. is not consumed in a large quantity either.
Household soap which is most important quantitatively accounts for the larger part of the consumption of soap. The production of laundry soap has sharply decreased in recent years with the global spread of synthetic detergents.
Indeed, it appears as though soap has given place to synthetic detergents. However, toilet soap enjoys a stabilized demand and its manufacture is not likely to lose in importance for a long time to come.
As for the monthly production capacity of toilet soap. although there are plants which manufacture 500-1500 tons a month. The soap making process roughly consists of saponification and moulding. There are various methods of saponification.
However, the hot process may be called the best one because the quality of soap in superior and this process turns out Glycerine as a by product.
Various oils and fats are used as raw materials for soap making tallow and coconut oil are mostly used in Japan. They are mixed at a ratio of 70 to 80 percent of the former and 20 to 30 percent of the latter.
