Fibertec Travel Soap Eco is a concentrated all-purpose soap for travel, hiking, camping and outdoor activities. It can be used as shampoo, shower gel, dishwashing detergent and hand detergent for clothes - all in the same convenient bottle.

Fibertec Travel Soap Eco 100 ml and 250 ml is a versatile travel soap for those who want to carry as few hygiene and cleaning products as possible. The concentrated formula can be used for body, hair, dishes and simple hand washing of clothes, making it especially practical for hiking, camping, cycling holidays, training camps and longer trips.

The soap has a skin-neutral pH value of 5.5 and contains a high proportion of dexpanthenol, also known as panthenol. Fibertec describes the formula as mild and suitable for daily cleansing of both body and hair. The product is also dermatologically tested with the rating "Very Good".

Travel Soap Eco is highly concentrated and only a few drops are normally needed for use. It deliberately foams relatively little, which makes it easier to rinse with a limited amount of water. It also works in cold water and can be used in both fresh and salt water.

The coconut oil-based formula contains no microplastics, silicones, kerosene or artificial dyes, according to Fibertec. The product is vegan and biodegradable. In Fibertec's test according to OECD 301F, the soap achieved a degradation rate of 82 percent after 28 days , which is above the test's guideline for ready biodegradability.

Although the soap is biodegradable, it should not be used directly in lakes, streams or other standing water. Fibertec recommends that you collect water, wash and rinse on land as the product breaks down faster in soil than in water.

Fibertec Travel Soap Eco 100 ml

The 100 ml bottle is suitable for those who prioritize low weight and a compact format.

It is a good choice for:

Shorter hikes

Weekend trips

Competitions and training camps

Bicycle and train trips

The gym and training bag

Spare soap in the car or backpack

Minimalist packaging

Because the product is concentrated, a small amount is sufficient for each use. This means that even the smaller bottle can last a long time if used sparingly. Fibertec describes the product as highly concentrated and states that a few drops are sufficient.

Fibertec Travel Soap Eco 250 ml

The 250 ml bottle is suitable for longer trips, frequent outdoor activities or use by several people.

It is a good choice for:

Longer hikes and expeditions

Camping and motorhome

Family trips

Longer training camps

Mountain cabins and base camps

Regular use at home

Refilling a smaller travel bottle

The formula is the same as in the 100 ml bottle. Fibertec's official product page also lists the 250 ml variant as bluesign®-approved.

Four uses in one bottle

As shower gel

Wet the skin, apply a few drops and distribute the soap over the body. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.

The skin-neutral pH value and the content of dexpanthenol make the product suitable for regular body cleansing.

As shampoo

Wet your hair thoroughly and massage a small amount in. The product lathers less than many regular shampoos, but that doesn't mean more soap is needed. Rinse your hair thoroughly.

As a dishwashing detergent

Add a few drops to a sponge, brush or directly into a small amount of water. Wash pots, mugs, cutlery and other outdoor equipment and then rinse thoroughly.

The soap is particularly practical on the go because the same bottle can be used for both personal hygiene and dishwashing. Fibertec explicitly lists dishwashing as one of the product's uses.

As a hand detergent for clothes

Travel Soap Eco can be used for hand washing of, for example:

Underwear

Socks

T-shirts

Merino clothing

Simpler workout clothes

Smaller textiles

Use sparingly, work the soap in carefully and rinse the garment thoroughly. Fibertec's usage guide states that underwear, merino wool and socks, among other things, can be washed with the product.

Do not use on membrane garments

Fibertec does not recommend Travel Soap Eco for washing membrane garments, such as shell jackets, shell pants or softshell garments with membranes.

The formula contains skin-care ingredients such as panthenol, vitamins and oils. These are good for skin and hair but are not suitable for technical membranes and their function. Instead, use a special functional detergent intended for waterproof and windproof garments.

How to use the soap outdoors

Bring clean water or collect water in a container.

Move some distance away from the lake or watercourse.

Use only a few drops of soap.

Wash your body, hair, dishes or clothes on land.

Rinse on land so that the wash water can filter through the soil.

Avoid pouring concentrated soap or washing water directly into natural water.

Fibertec explains that the soap breaks down faster in soil than in water. When using near a lake, the manufacturer recommends that you soak your body in the lake but lather and rinse off on land.

Biodegradable – but use it with care

Just because a soap is biodegradable does not mean it should be used directly in lakes and waterways. Degradation takes time and the right environment, and even biodegradable cleaning agents can affect the aquatic environment before they have broken down.

Fibertec has had Travel Soap Eco tested according to OECD 301F , an internationally used method for ready biodegradability. The company states that the product achieved 82 percent biodegradability in 28 days.

The best choice in nature is therefore always to:

Use as little soap as possible

Wash and rinse on land

Keep away from lakes and streams

Let the soil filter the washing water

Avoid use in sensitive natural areas where soap is prohibited

Fibertec Travel Soap Eco or regular shampoo?

Fibertec Travel Soap Eco:

Can be used on body, hair, dishes and clothes

Concentrated formula

Small and convenient travel size

Works with cold water

Biodegradable

Adapted for travel and outdoor activities

Regular shampoo or shower gel:

Primarily intended for hair or body

Often less suitable for washing dishes and clothes

May require multiple separate packages

Not always tested for biodegradability

Travel Soap Eco is a better choice when light weight and multiple uses are more important than specialized products for each task.

Fibertec Travel Soap Eco or functional detergent?

Travel Soap Eco is suitable for simple hand washing of underwear, socks and merino garments, for example. However, it is not the right product for shell garments or other functional garments with membranes.

Choose a special functional detergent when washing:

Gore-Tex and other membranes

Shell jackets and shell pants

Softshell with membrane

Technical garments with water-repellent treatment

Garments that will later be re-impregnated

Storage

Keep the bottle tightly closed, dry and protected from strong heat and direct sunlight. Make sure the lid is securely closed before packing the product in a backpack or suitcase.

Fibertec's product information states that the product is not classified as hazardous according to current CLP regulations, but that it should be kept out of reach of children.

Important to consider

The product is concentrated – a few drops are enough.

Rinse thoroughly if product gets in eyes.

Do not use the soap as toothpaste or for internal use.

Do not use it for washing shell and membrane garments.

Do not pour soap or washing water directly into lakes and streams.

Always follow the safety and usage information on the bottle.
