Soapberries, also known as soap nuts, are the fruits of the tree of the Latin name Sapindus Mukorossi. The name Sapindus originally derives from the Latin word Sapo, meaning soap, and the Indian word Indus, meaning Native American. Today, the soapberry tree grows wild in the tropical regions of both central America and southern Asia. Our soapberries grow wild in the subtropical regions of the foothills of the Himalayas in northern India. We use these soapberries as they are of the best quality. Soapberries are mostly called soap nuts even though they are fruits and not nuts.

Our essential oils are the mildest essential oils on the market and 100% organic certified by USFDA and WHO. Our 100% pure oil can be added to your laundry during washing or drying. Essential oils are an excellent and environment-friendly alternative to fabric softener, that contains harmful chemicals for our nature.
Our oils are extracted naturally by cold pressing by water distillation of flowers, fruits, shells and other plant parts. Therefore, you can be sure that our oils are 100% natural and do not contain any synthetic or nature-identical additives.
We all love fragrant laundry, including us green nerds at Cocoon Company, which is why we think our essential oils are a must-have together with our soapberries. The soapberries do not contain any scent, so we have worked hard to find the best and mildest natural essential oils for your laundry.
Natural wool dryer balls reduce your drying time with 25% due to wool’s strong moisture-absorbing properties. Also, when the wool dryer balls move around in the dryer, they lift and separate the laundry. Thus, the warm air can better circulate in the dryer and makes the laundry dry faster. Another advantage is that wool dryer balls reduce the accumulation of static electricity in the laundry and can therefore be used for synthetic fabrics that can withstand dryer.
Our wool balls are available in bags of 4 or 6 pieces. Half of which will be white balls and the other half will be grey. The white balls are of course for light clothes and the grey ones for dark and colored clothes.

A natural sponge from the sea is incredibly gentle on the skin and helps to preserve the skin’s own moisturizing oils. The large pores of the sea sponge enable the sponge to cleanse the skin in depth in a soft and natural way and help maintain a healthy circulation of blood on the face and body.
The structure of the sponge with many channels makes the sponge incredibly easy to clean. A regular foam or plastic sponge with closed plastic bubbles, is difficult to clean and many bacteria gathers easily. It is not a problem with a sea sponge, and it is therefore incredibly hygienic as a bath sponge. Thus, it is recommended for those with allergies or sensitive skin.
We have three different sea sponges:
