Have you thought about starting your own your soap-making business? Not sure what you’d use to package your beautifully made soaps? Packaging can make all the difference to customers; by keeping your soaps safe and fresh, you’re increasing the likelihood of happy customers.  

Whether you’re selling at craft fairs, online, or in local shops, the right packaging is important. SmithPackaging has a wide range of options perfect for soap makers, and here are five simple yet effective ways to package your homemade soap to help boost those sales. 

  

1. Kraft Paper Wrap with a Personalised Touch  

Kraft paper is a popular choice for handmade soaps because of its natural, rustic charm. It’s affordable, biodegradable, and great for eco-conscious customers. Wrap your soap in kraft paper, add a splash of personality with a custom label, and voilà—you’ve got a beautifully simple package! Use SmithPackaging’s high-quality kraft paper along with your custom branding labels to add a personal touch. 

2. Single Wall Cardboard Boxes for Added Protection 

Packaging your soap in boxes adds a premium touch and provides space and product information. SmithPackaging’s Single Wall Cardboard Boxes are sturdy and can be customised with labels or stamps. This type of packaging is ideal if you’re looking for affordable and protected packaging options with a professional appearance that aligns with your brand’s aesthetic. 

3. Paper Bubble Wrap for Eco-Friendly Protection 

To ensure that your soap remains well-protected during transit, bubble wrap can be a fantastic choice. SmithPackaging’s Paper Bubble Wrap provides cushioning to keep your soap safe during transit while appealing to eco-conscious customers. 

4. Muslin Bags for an Eco-Friendly Touch 

Muslin bags are a perfect solution for soap makers who want to keep their packaging as eco-friendly as possible. Plus, they can be reused by your customers, giving your brand a lasting impression. SmithPackaging has a variety of reusable bags that can complement your soaps and highlight your commitment to sustainability. Muslin bags are also ideal for biodegradable soap packaging that reduces environmental impact. 

  

5. Elegant Ribbon and Tag Combo 

For a simple and fun option, wrapping your soap in plain white or coloured paper and finishing it off with an elegant ribbon and a small branded tag can be extremely effective. The ribbon adds something extra, while the tag can include the soap name, ingredients, or a small message. This type of packaging works wonderfully for special editions, seasonal soaps, or as soap gift packaging, and is a cost-effective way to add a personal, hand-crafted touch.
