Here’s Why You Should Purchase the Best Soap Making Equipment for Your Company

According to Statista, a reputable market and consumer data company, the soap and detergent market in the United States will command a market value of more than $47 billion by 2025. If you’re in the soap and detergent industry, you want to be among the players who take the lion’s share of the profits in this industry. This means investing in the right cosmetic manufacturing equipment such as an industrial wax melter.

Here’s why you should purchase the best soap making equipment for your company.

1. Minimize Your Operational Costs

To maximize profits in your industrial soap-making business, you must keep your operational costs at a minimum. This means working in large batch pours to keep operations running optimally. As such, you have to use a large industrial wax melter that allows you to work at maximum capacity. For instance, you can buy a large wax melter with 100, 200, 250, or 400-gallon capacities. This way, you’ll be able to increase your output and make more soap without inflating your operational costs.

If you buy a large and top-quality industrial wax melter with a 400-gallon capacity, with such a wax melting machine, you can manage bulk batch pours and continuously make soap in large quantities. Large and continuous production runs are more energy efficient because you make more products per unit of energy. Additionally, the top-quality wax melters use direct heat technology that gives them fast melt times and even heating.

When you invest in the best wax melters, you’ll reduce your overall energy consumption in the long run. Energy bills are a substantial part of the recurrent costs in your manufacturing business, so reducing power consumption is a big plus to your bottom line.

2. Quality Soap Making Equipment Helps You Reduce Wastage

When using the right soap equipment, you will have less waste in your production activities. A good industrial wax melter has a computer-controlled solid-state circulatory that allows you to control product temperature. As a result, you heat your soap-making materials under precise temperature in perfect conditions. When your soap-making raw materials are in the ideal state, you will make better soap. You will have less waste because you will use all your materials effectively.

Additionally, the best industrial wax melters are fitted with a heated pouring valve that allows you to measure the exact product you want to pour. Therefore, you won’t use more raw materials than you need and end up with excess products that go to waste. You also reduce wasted time when you have the right soap manufacturing equipment. Modern industrial soap-making equipment makes operations easy because it may have a mechanical interface that gives you more control over your manufacturing operations.

3. Purchasing Top-Grade Soap Equipment Gives You More Value for Money

Commercial wax melters don’t come cheap. A smaller 60-gallon melter will cost you about $1,995 to $2,695, while a 100-gallon industrial melter will cost about $2,495.00 – $3,195. You will have to dig a little deeper in your pockets for the larger 200, 250, and 400-gallon melters.

Given the cut-throat competition in the cosmetic industry, you have to make soap in bulk quantities to remain competitive in the market. This requires you to invest in large wax melters and all the cosmetic-making equipment that you need. You can produce soap in large quantities and sell to a bigger market with the appropriate soap-making equipment. Since you will have lower costs of operation, you can offer more competitive prices and still make a profit.

Given that the soap and cosmetic market is a tough industry, you don’t want to cut corners in your soap-making operations because customers will be able to tell a quality soap from a substandard one. Conversely, you must strive to make top-quality soap with a unique fragrance to attract and maintain customers. It all starts with investing in the right soap-making equipment, particularly your industrial wax melter. Luckily, you can get the best equipment from our team at Coogar Products.

My immediate priority was to start modernising the factory and implement lean processes. Things started to turn around but I couldn’t get past the primary production method of pouring by buckets and jugs. Although our candles have to be hand poured I remained convinced there had to be some equipment to assist in this. My research first lead me to another US based company. I bought and trialled some of their equipment. To give you an indication of how well it worked, I threw the last of it out only last week after it has sat in the corner of the building for the last two years. Then about 18 months ago I discovered the Coogar website. I contacted Scott & Justin, they were very passionate people and seemed very committed to their product. After being burnt a few months before I was hesitant but after I watched the video of a pumper in action I decided to take a chance. I purchased my first pumper. When it arrived, Scott and I hooked up on Skype and he taught me how to use it in less than an hour.

The next day I put it to work on container line 1. As they say the rest is history…….. I had 12 people working on that line. Within 10 minutes I realised I had 8 people standing around doing nothing and I had to move them to another section. At the end of the day that particular line had produced just under 4000 container candles with only 4 people. Our previous record was 2100 with 12 people. I was also acutely aware that the area was clean. There was no wax on the floor. I tried to calculate the waste and it was to small to measure. Since then I have purchased another 5 machines making 6 in total. I use the in pillar making, containers, and votives. I intend to purchase another 4 -5 machines over the next couple of years. Although my implementation program is not complete, I have seen my waste drop from 17% to under 3%. When the implementation is complete I expect this figure to be negligible. Productivity is up dramatically and power consumption is significantly down. I could go on forever about these differences the machines make to our production methods and work flow but suffice to say we no longer lose money. In fact in the last 18 months I have reduced prices to the retail arm twice. Once by 10% and again by a further 15%. They are knocking on the door wanting another reduction this year and I believe I will be able to accommodate them.

I hope that helps.

Kind Regards

Ps.. You will be interested to know that I completed some calculations for the Boss today. It clearly showed that the turnaround time for a candle from start to finish (including palletising) has dropped from an average of 3 minutes plus in 2010 to 1.1 minutes in 2013. That is a 66% reduction in processing time. Not bad with only 6 machines. He did ask me what I needed to drop the time further. I told him three additional Coogars plus a wicking machine ☺
