AlmaWin brand vision

The main goal of the AlmaWin brand is to bring perfectly eco-friendly washing and cleaning products that are in harmony with nature. It goes without saying that products are not tested on animals. The products contain only gentle cleansing ingredients, so they are also suitable for sensitive and allergic skin, which they do not irritate.

The main motivation for the creation of the brand and product development was the increasing number of allergic diseases in the population and the increasing influence of the environment.

However, AlmaWin products should not only be as ecological and natural as possible, but also effective.

Brand mission

Our mission is to offer consumers around the world who are striving for a green household.

We are committed to the highest quality standards, using carefully selected raw materials while remaining true to our core values of quality, fair pricing and environmental sustainability.

Soapnut harvesting also provides a source of income for local farming families and supports their economic autonomy. The natural vegetation is also preserved. Trees are not cut down, but they do appreciate, which is good for climate protection and prevents soil erosion.

In harmony with people and nature

For more than 30 years, we have been developing and manufacturing eco-friendly detergents and cleaning products. For us, sustainability means that our daily actions are guided by respect for nature and the environment. We do everything we can to protect resources, safeguard recovery processes and constantly innovate to come up with better and better solutions. After all, what we do today must be good for our children tomorrow. and grandchildren.

As a medium-sized, second-generation family business, we have close ties to our region. Here, a sense of tradition and the power of innovation go hand in hand, allowing us to create sustainable, environmentally friendly products for the future so you can play your part in building a better world.

Dermatologically tested

AlmaWin products are not only made from the finest natural ingredients, but all are also certified organic by independent institutions that meet some of the strictest standards. In order to manufacture our products, we comply with some of the most advanced national (German) and international (EU) laws, but also in our annual audits we repeatedly confirm the safety of our products for you and the environment. All our products are successfully dermatologically tested by independent institutes in Germany.

Soap nuts: the cleansing power of nature"

Soap nuts

The soapnut is a small miracle of nature. Currently, there is no other natural detergent raw material that combines so many benefits.

The saponin that is contained in the shells of these soap nuts is:

natural washing active with convincing washing and cleaning power
gentle on colours and fibres
has a natural softening effect and makes linen soft
smoothes textile fibres and thus facilitates ironing
100% biodegradable
reduces the amount of soap and surfactants in the product
particularly gentle on the skin
makes it easier for liquid detergents to achieve excellent washing performance even at temperatures as low as 20°C, thus saving energy.

From fruits to detergents

The saponin that is so valuable for our products comes from the shells of soapnuts from northern India. On the slopes of these mountainous areas, the soapnut grows wild in large numbers and is accessible to everyone. Rudolf Bund, the owner of AlmaWin, travelled to these regions in 2013 for the nut harvest to see for himself.

How does it work? Ripe fruits fall to the ground and just need to be collected and dried. Harvesting the fruit provides an additional source of income for local farming families and supports their economic autonomy. At the same time, the natural vegetation is preserved. Trees are not cut down, they are valued. This is good for climate protection and prevents soil erosion. Moreover, it is not necessary to establish a plantation to meet the demand.

In the beginning, AlmaWin also experimented with soapnut shells. However, it quickly became apparent that the clean shells did not meet the stringent requirements of the company itself, but also of consumers in terms of ease of use and reliable cleaning performance. The really good cleaning ability of soapnuts needs support, because soapnut shells do not have the function of softening water, which leads to poor washing results with high water hardness. It also can't bleach, which is especially important for stains and white linen. So AlmaWin did intensive research and finally came up with a solution: soapnut extract.

Saponin as such

Sustainable saponin extraction in India

For sustainable production, it was important that the saponin from soapnuts was extracted directly in India. This move means that only the concentrated extract is exported to Germany and not the vast quantities of shells. This saves CO2 during transport and creates more jobs for local people. We found a partner who specialized in using natural substances. Together with this partner, AlmaWin was able to obtain certification and implementation of saponin extraction in India.

Suitable for allergy sufferers

Since then, soapnut extract has been successfully combined with our proven organic formulas and provides only benefits: 100% reliable, natural cleaning action, less consumption of soaps and surfactants made with palm kernel oil. Very good skin tolerance is also confirmed by the German Allergy and Asthma Association (daab), which is particularly important for sensitive skin and allergy sufferers.

AlmaWin is a German brand that supplies natural cleaning products to the market. Their products are not tested on animals and are free of microplastics and calcium polymers. They pride themselves on all products being free of chemicals, synthetic fragrances and dyes. Of course, everything is dermatologically tested.
