Manufacturers are able to buy basic soap noodles, then add pigments, fragrances and other components to create their own brand of soap. Once this has been accomplished, the soap is moulded and pressed into its final shape, stamped with the brand and packaged.


Different specifications of soap noodles are used depending on the type of soap to be manufactured e.g. Toilet soap, laundry soap, translucent soaps, high-lather, medicated, etc.
