How Soap Gets Its Shape ๐งผ
Ever wondered how soap gets its shape? The process begins during manufacturing when soap is still in a semi-liquid or pliable state. After being formulated from fats or oils and lye through saponification, the mixture is poured into molds that determine the final shape. These molds can be made from metal, silicone, or plastic and come in various designs depending on the brand or intended use. In large-scale production, extrusion machines are often used, where the soap is pushed through a die to form a long slab, which is then cut into individual bars. The bars may then be stamped with logos or decorative patterns. After shaping, the soap is allowed to cure or is mechanically dried to harden it for packaging and use. Whether itโs oval, rectangular, or novelty-shaped, every soap barโs form is the result of carefully controlled industrial or artisanal processes designed for both function and appeal.
