Triple Milled Or French Milled Soaps

Triple Milled Soap

Triple milled soaps, extremely popular and in high demand today for their high quality, have been produced for centuries. The triple milling process was developed by French soap makers in the 1700s and thus receives its alternate name, French milled soap.

What Is Triple Milled Soap?
Triple-milled soap is a high-quality type of soap that is commercially made by a repeated machine-rolling process.

What Is The Process?
Triple milled soaps, or French milled soaps, are made of a typical combination of a fatty acid (oil or fat) in reaction with lye (sodium hydrochloride). After the soap mixture is made, it is then dried into crystals and rolled at least three times between large stainless steel rollers until a paste is formed. The paste is then pressed into soap molds, and the triple milled soap is created.

What are The Benefits?
The triple milling process allows for soap that is completely uniform and smooth, without impurities, and is longer lasting than other types of soap.

What is Quad Milled Soap?
Quad milling (See Pre de Provence Soaps) is a special production process that adds one more rolling to create a soap that is super luxurious on the skin.
