About Soap Noodles

Soap noodles are the pre-saponified base from which finished soap bars are made. Manufactured by saponifying vegetable oils typically a blend of palm and palm-kernel oil they are supplied as small extruded noodles that soap finishers mill, mix with fragrance, colour and additives, then plod and stamp into bars. They are classified by their Total Fatty Matter (TFM) and by the oil blend ratio. The most common commercial grade is a 78% TFM 80:20 (palm:palm-kernel) noodle, though 65% TFM economy grades and specialty blends are also traded. Higher TFM means a harder, longer-lasting, higher-quality bar; the palm-kernel fraction governs lather and solubility.
