How long have you been making soap?
A: Since the mid-1970s. GMSC incorporated in 1992.
I see you have an online store. Can I buy Green Mountain Soap locally? I shop at a local store and it would be very convenient if they carried your product line. How can I put you in touch with them?
A: Thanks for thinking of us! Please contact us via email or call (256) 650-0059 during business hours, Central US Time.
Have you custom-formulated a soap for some clients?
A: We have developed a few custom soaps for people in unusual medical circumstances. We actually developed the Castile (100% olive oil) liquid soap for people who are allergic to coconut oil and then added it to our regular line of products because it is so mild.
Do you have vegetarian/cruelty-free soaps?
A: Yes. Our all-vegetable and bayberry soaps are made from only vegetable components, as are our liquid soaps.
Do you use sustainably-sourced oils and fats in your products?
A: We are aware of the concerns surrounding sourcing of palm oil and coconut oil. We purchase vegetable oils from sustainably-managed plantations. For example, our palm oil comes only from producers who are members of the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil http://www.rspo.org/
A: Both the bar/shaving soap packaging and the liquid soap bottles are recyclable any place you can recycle cardboard and milk jugs.
