- Come along with me on this tour of the Dr. Bronner's factory! This is where we make our Dr. Bronner's Pure-Castile soap.
How I hate saying no to factory tours. I feel like I’m selfishly hoarding something that is really awesome. If I weren’t already in on it, I’d totally want to see it, too. But we can’t squeeze in tours, as you’ll see. There’s just not enough space. There’s too much magic happening!
So I’ve created the next best thing: a video tour. A peek inside our headquarters, following the path of liquid soap production - from raw materials in, to bottled soap out.
I don’t have a lot of experience in factories other than Dr. Bronner’s, but I do think we have the most gorgeous and fascinating operation. It is filled with stories, lessons and the practical expression of our 6 Cosmic Principles. I’m glad I get to share this with you here.

I love the peppermint soap. I will always support a company that does right by their employees, and sources their ingredients from fair trade farmers/growers. When companies choose to put the planet and its inhabitants over profits, only good will follow. Thank you for providing a great product, while also impacting the planet positively.
Thanks for the support!
I’m so glad she mentioned where the palm oil came from!
Yes, me too. My heart sank at that part, because I immediately thought it was from Indonesia, and I can't bear the thinking of my soap hurts the orangutans.
Nice...but no video...
I bet it smells sooo good in there!
I work at ECOS, another earth-friendly liquid soap factory. It has a near identical setup, but it doesn’t really smell at all of any of the scents.
I wonder if it's strange smelling all the different scents at once...
I’ve been using this soap for over 40 years. This was really interesting! My mom didn’t like my “hippy soap” in her house.
Which one is your fav?
@@AP099 peppermint liquid!! First & forever lol
That’s funny is commonly referred to as my hippie soap and im conservative as can be
Thanks so much for preparing this tour. My family has enjoyed the quality and safety of Dr. Bronner's soaps for many years. It was very informative and interesting to see the factory tour. Thanks again!
Glad you liked the tour! Pretty fun to know where your soap got it's start, isn't it?
Love your soaps, and your company values. Enjoyed the tour very much!
Great! Thank you for your support!
Lisa Bronner I just started using your soaps and I love it! I’m never going back !
Thanks for what you, your family and your team do to make the world a better place !
Thank you, George.
Just recently I even used their tea tree soap bars to make a powdered laundry detergent.
That's great, Dylan!
Found your soap when I lived in Escondido years ago. It's still the best soap I have ever used and it's great to see how ethical the business remains. Thanks for staying true to your grandfather's vision.
Thanks! Hearing from long-time customers is always a pleasure!
Are we allowed to visit , I just wanna see the soap LOL
So sorry I missed your question last year! Unfortunately, no, we're not set up for visitors. Even during non-pandemic times. It is really neat to see, though. I hope the video helped!
I've just recently discovered your soap. It is amazing. I use it on myself, to do laundry, and on my dog. The skin smells amazing after shower, dryiness is gone. The price is decent to. Thank you!
God Bless you! We need all companies to follow your example. Thank you for all your hard work. And doing right by the planet.
I got in touch with this product in NY some years ago and fell in love with it, unfortunately I wasn’t able to get it in Mexico. Since some months ago I found it here and now I’m the happiest guy ever. Love the commitment with the employees and the nature. Good job.
What a wonderful soapy story Lisa! Thank you for sharing Bronners with the world. 🐰Jen
Great video! I love your soaps and the high standards the company has with using fair trade ingredients and employment. Really enjoyed seeing the manufacturing side of things :)
Awesome video! I love Dr. Bronners castille soaps. I've been using your products for 15+ years and I'm hooked for life. I find your products not only affordable and of high value and quality, but alsp healthy and non-toxic, with fair-trade ingredients. Your company operates ethically, compassionately, and treats its diverse body of employees with dignity and respect. Dr. Bronners company puts its heart and soul into its products and it shows. May other companies follow your example. ALL ONE! Much love and continued success to you all!
This is amazing. I LOVE Dr. Bronner’s, you have a life long customer right here
I use this soap daily, the work I do at the brewery is pretty hard on my skin. Oddly enough, we use remarkably similar equipment to fill our containers with beer! Thanks for sharing our process. Cheers and best from northern Minnesota!
Thank you for sharing a tour! So cool to see how the liquid castile soap is made!
Love Dr. Bonner's... And the multiple uses are amazing. You can even brush your teeth with it because of the high coconut oil content. Extraordinary Stuff😍😍
Thanks so much for sharing, it shows your transparency. Love your honest and quality products. 💚👍
I LOVE the soap. Am going back to it for cleaning. and for hand washing!
A truly fantastic product made by fantastic people. It's very rare there's a product that I'm genuinely proud to purchase, but you have a lifetime customer in me in the Liquid Pure Castile. Many thanks, and all one!
Hi Nicholas- Thank you for your wonderfully kind words!
This is so cool! I love dr bronners soap stuff! Ill bet it smells so good in that factory :)
We love you guys! thanks for making the best soap ever!
Iam like where I have I been living under a rock just purchased the peppermint amazing I will never use another soap told my mothers friend about Dr Bronners she said she has used this for 56 years😳 boy I have I been missing out thank u DrBronner u are a true Genius🥳🥳🎉🥳🥳🎉
This was so fun to watch!! I love Br. Bronner's and getting an inside look was awesome. I just made a video on my channel about the 25 different ways I use it in our home. I love to make videos that support companies that make every effort to grow without cutting jobs and maintaining a healthy environment.
Thank you so much for the factory tour. I love it, and your soap as well.
Thank you, Jeni!
This soap has done wonders for my acne!!!
I'm so happy to hear that!
shayla baker which one?
Which one of the soap Shayla Baker? Please reply hun...I'm from all the way in Antigua.
@@TopGyalDiva869 If you have super sensitive skin go for the unscented one or the tea tree one but ( you can still use even if you don't have sensitive skin) if your skin is not really sensitive you should use the peppermint.
Thank you so much for this video. I love all Dr. Bronner products. I use the soap, toothpaste, and lip balm. All peppermint, of course, and ALL ONE!
Thank you 💚 for this amazing tour! 🚒 I am sure I saw your early labelling work, well done from Canada! 🇨🇦
Ha! Hope the label was on straight!
Awesome! Thank you for the tour!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Absolutely in love with your soap!❤
Beautifully organized operation!
Thank you Dr. Bronner I discovered your soap when I was 18 years old I’m now 65 I haven’t missed a day without Dr. Bronner’s absolutely undoubtably the best soap ever made if I could give it 100 stars I would nothing can compare nothing and I’ve tried
Hi Peter- I very much enjoy hearing from our long-time customers. Thank you for supporting our family's business for so many years!
Lisa... what a wonderful video explanation about the soap I have used for twenty years. Inspiring ! I have give away many bottles of Peppermint, my favorite, over that period. Such a fresh, tingly sensation after a soapy shower. I'd peeled off a label and hung it on our bulletin board at work to spread the word. Love the company philosophy of world peace, ecology, and helping your workers. That is why I will buy your product forever !
Terry from Chicago.
That's great, Terry! Thanks for sharing your story, our soap, and the label!
LOVE THIS!!!! LOVE Dr. BRONNER's!!!!!!
Great to have a look at the production. Entertaining video. Thank you so much.
I think it was late 2017 when I first discovered Dr. Bronner. The first scent I tried was lavender and once I started using it I can never go back, right now my favorite is the cherry blossom and I can never see myself using any other product I'll be using Dr. Bronner's pure Castile soap for the rest of my life.
dylan bellerose I just discovered it a week ago and I'm not going back to using any other soap
Awesome information...I love your Castile Soap products plus the knowledge and message on the labels.📝 Great👍
Awesome video tour! As someone who has worked in manufacturing for 40 years, I love seeing videos of different manufacturing processes and factories. I was a planner for a coffee extracts manufacturer for several years and your tour brought back some memories. I'd certainly rather smell like soap than coffee after a day in the plant though! ;)
Hi Muriel- Thanks for watching, and I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Just discovered Dr Bronner’s soap. I love the peppermint and the lavender.
Great insight into a great company
I love this soap! Lavender is my fav 😍 But I have every scent 😍 Liquid and bar!
Worth every penny.
Definition of greatness
Well done, Lisa. This marketing exec bows in your general direction. I'm a Dr. Bronner customer and advocate. Congrats to you, your family, and extended work family for your past and future success.
Thanks for your support, Quasi!
This is fascinating. I love Dr. Bronners
I started using your liquid soap in 1992 and still do today. I've developed allergies to most scents so now stick to the unscented baby soap. Thank goodness you make unscented! The video is quite interesting.
Peppermint is my favorite
I enjoy mine with a nice exfoliating body cloth in the shower before bed. It’s very soothing to me doesn’t dry my skin out. Don’t worry about it if you haven’t had any reactions.
I used to only just use bar soap. Now I’m using bar soap to wash my armpits down there and sweaty areas. And to treat myself I’ll use dr bronners
It’s my routine now before bed whenever I feel like it.
Dermatologists don’t recommend this for dry sensitive skin, or eczema. Essential oils can cause bad reactions etc and coconut oil and dry skin out.
I love it though. Used my lavender one, now trying almond scent.
The unscented is still drying be careful and switch to unscented soap bar
the warehouse is beautiful and organized. I love this video!
Thanks so much! It was fun to make too! Earlier this year I did a video on our Bar Soap production line. Check it out here, czcams.com/video/zKRII5XDUSo/video.html
Not many companies like this! Absolutely amazing.
Thanks, Dan!
Sal Suds is the Best!!!!
Keep Up the Wonderful Work!!!!
This Was brilliant to watch.
Thank you! It was fun to make too.
I'm glad to be one of the Laguna Beach Hippies that were directly responsible for making this soap popular. We bought hundreds of cases in the late 1960's and gave them away to people all over the states (and the world) as part of our personal 'War On War' peace movement. Glad to have helped!
I love hearing this! Thank you, Don! You are definitely part of our story. We wouldn't be here today without you.
Glad I watched this video. Retaining your employees was the thing to do, the right thing. I used to teach CorelDraw X back in the 90's. One of my clients was Young Sign Company, Las Vegas. Management had laid-off one of their long time employees because he did not know how to use the PC to design their signs. When the owners heard about it, they immediately hired the employee back and hired me to train him on their site, for one month! "Ducky" was the employee (6'4", former Division I college football player! His grandma's nickname for him). He flourished. Your story of the hand-fillers reminded me of Ducky and how Yesco did right by him. He designed the Native American Headdress seen at Buffalo Bill's Casino, Primm Nevada.
Hi Winston- Thank you for sharing this story! I've not seen the sign at Buffalo Bill's in person, but the photos are... wow!
@@GoingGreenwithLisaBronner Your grandpa would be very proud of you!
It's SO exciting that your plant is so close to my home! I live in Rancho Bernardo!! 🙂
Yes, we're neighbors!
lavender for everything always!
Very good presentation !
Excellent, love your product
I'm using the hemp almond soap as a foot soak and cleaner for my mom and she is sold too. You guys are the best
Excellent!
I have loved your soap since I was a hippie teenager and we were the main customers! All-one!
Thanks, Sarah. It's always great to her from long-time customers!
Fab video! I love Dr Bronner soaps 👍 One thing I always think; how clever are the people who design those automated machines 🤔
Yes, yes! Me too!
Love this product
that was amazing!
Thanks for sharing 🌈
Very interesting 🌻
I love watching how it’s made videos.
Wow thanks browners family for sharing
Thanks for watching, Lynnetta!
Enjoyed that!!
Amazing. love it. I just started to use the product.
Excellent! Welcome to the Dr. Bronner's family!
Best soap I ever used!
Awesome I can't wait to try
When our motives are pure we succeed.
Wow, interesting!! Thanks for sharing.
You are most welcome. Glad you enjoyed it!
I love this company and everything they stand for
Thanks, AP! Your comment means a lot to me and my family!
I love the rosehip for my face and peppermint for everywhere
Dr. Bronner's soaps are like Manna From Heaven. One of the game-changing products I have ever used in my life. It's such an intimate product where I use it all over my body in the shower and the best way is to pour the concentrated soap and mix it 50/50 with water in a Foaming Hand soap pump dispenser. They are such a benevolent company they are blessed totally with their business practices and the purity of their products
I love this stuff.
Dr. Bronner's is awesome. I just wish they'd use less plastic packaging. It would be great if they offered to chain stores a giant dispenser for the customer to re-fill their own bottles.
Hi Big E- That's great you like our products! We’d love to switch to a regenerative material that can be recycled or composted after its useful life has ended-however, a material that meets these goals, is organically grown, and is resilient enough for our purposes has yet to be developed.
In the meantime, know that we use 100% post-consumer recycled PET plastic bottles for most of our liquid soaps, and we participate in bottle-to-bottle recycling-the recycling of used plastic bottles into new bottles, which helps conserve virgin resources and reduces landfill.
Also, some co-ops and natural stores do offer filling stations. Hopefully there's one nearby you.
The automation is amazing to watch.
Isn't it though? I feel the same way!
Other brands of liquid castille just arent the same. Love yalls soap
that is very impressive
What a great video! and no kidding - it 'would' be a dream to take a tour!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I used a clip from the tour in this video:

Thanks to Dr. Bronner's for their support of the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies!
Thank you❤️
This is the best soap ever!
I loved this video I have got to get some of this good stuff I know it smells good you have my many bessing and may god shine light upon you 🌺🌺🌺🌈🌈🌸🌸🌸😇😇😇
Thanks for watching and for your kind wishes!
Hi, Lady Lisa. I am from Italy. I've had the privilege to find your liquid soap in my herbalist's shop in Pordenone, 10 km from Aviano USAF Base. There's something magic, in your product. You do everything with the same principles since more than a century. For an italian, it is simply wonderful to make everything clean with Dr Bronner's liquid soap. Your product is as clean and pure as you Bronner family are. each time I use my peppermint liquid soap I feel sure about it's origin and about the passion You all put in what you do. I find it PERFECT as toothpaste too! Hey, let me tell you: you are a beautiful jew lady, born in an open minded family. Everything is healthy, at Bronner's factory. Not just only in your product, but in the air. I love you.
Thank you so much for all your kind words! I'm so glad we're in sync!
@@GoingGreenwithLisaBronner I'm glad too, and I am sorry because my English is poor.
I just want to add that you are a stupendous, nice and smart woman. And more: my dentist told me Bronner's soap is perfect as a toothpaste, it removes many more germs than any common toothpaste.
I use to wash my teeth with Bronner's Peppermint liquid soap (one drop is enough).
He told me to keep that advice as a secret because it is too effective!
That's why, I'm suggesting you all to do the same.
Lady Lisa, it's a pleasure to know you.
You are so beautiful.
As Italian, I could not avoid to give You my compliments...
Great!
As someone who has worked many manufacturing jobs, it's nice to hear of one that retrains employees when changes are made instead thinking they're all idiots and sacking them in favor of hiring newbies at a lower pay rate.
Cool video
Nice and Ideally
Amazing
I love the peppermint
Goals!
I love your soap, but this video is exceedingly well done. Great timing, information and interesting.
Pure castle soap for me all the time I love it
Hi there! I've just started using your soap in hopes that it can help my eczema journey. Thanks for the tour, too.
Hi Christopher - We do hear from some customers that our soap and Unscented Magic Balm can provide some relief from eczema flare-ups.
please consider worldwide shipping we love your products but it is so hard to find them.
Guys have the most hippie looking firetruck I have ever seen! Part of your fire brigade lol?
I own three giant bottles: tea tree, lavender, and almond. I swear by these they're so gooddddd
Excellent! I'm so glad my family's products are working out for you!
What’s your fave one to shower with
