SEBRING, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--By popular demand, Essential Depot, a leading and fast-growing U.S. supplier of natural soap making and cosmetic making supplies, announced today the launch of two hot new revolutionary products for professional and beginning soapers, according to Derek Hodges, Essential Depot founder and president.
The Revolutionary Essential Depot (RED) Silicone Soap Mold is four to five times thicker than traditional silicone molds, and is the first silicone soap mold strong enough to withstand thousands of uses. In addition, it is engineered to provide years of easy service, and sized to make soap loaves that can be cut into 11 one-inch bars. The RED Silicone Soap Mold will be priced at $34.99, but currently is available at EssentialDepot.com for $24.99.
For beginning soapers, Essential Depot has created three RED Soap Making Kits, each including a RED Silicone Soap Mold, as well as all the ingredients needed to make a soap loaf. The kits, designed in conjunction with Essential Depot soap making affiliates, come in signature recipes Triple Butter Moisturizing, Caffeinated, and Spirit Lifter with eight different essential oils. Each RED Soap Making Kit will sell for $59.99, but for a limited time can be purchased at the web site for $44.99.
“The handcrafted soap and cosmetic making industry is comprised of more than 250,000 micro-businesses, nearly 95 percent of which are women-owned. Our RED Silicone Soap Mold and Soap Making Kits fill a void in the market for the equipment necessary for new soapers to start producing commercially saleable bars,” Hodges said.
Essential Depot will unveil the RED Silicon Soap Mold and RED Soap Making Kits tomorrow, April 13, at the Ohio-Kentuckiana Soap Makers Gathering 2013 in Ashtabula, Ohio.
“Soap making is no longer just utilitarian, but it’s become an art form,” said Catherine McGinnis, professional soaper and owner of newt + fig soap company. “With the variety of oils, scents and pigments available, soap can be customized for many skin types. And it can be made in the home kitchen, which is a plus for anyone looking to supplement her or his income.
“I order from Essential Depot because they carry the inventory of quality products I need, affordably priced. Plus, the customer service is fantastic and delivery is always on time,” McGinnis said.
At its headquarters in Sebring, Florida, Essential Depot operates a Wine Soap Bar, a fully equipped showroom and training center where every Thursday and Friday from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. customers can enjoy a glass of wine with staff members, get soap making tips and share their thoughts and feedback.
