Sharing the Origin and Mission

Amid the busy streets of ancient Aleppo, a soapmaker carefully combined olive oil, laurel oil, and soda ash, creating what would become the world's first recorded soap.
Centuries later, the world has evolved, and with it, so has our approach to soap-making. The initial purity of that Aleppian blend got lost in the race to industrialization and profit maximization. Manufacturers began introducing a staggering amount of chemicals and synthetic ingredients. While these additives might have increased profits and made products last longer, they come at a price. Many of these modern components are alien to our natural biochemistry not to mention their environmental footprint.
Moving Forward by Moving Back to Nature
At FOKUS, we've embarked on a journey of retrospection. Stripping away the unnecessary, we aim to return to the fundamentals, the way nature intended. By harnessing the power of nature and doing away with the synthetic, we not only honor the legacy of that ancient soapmaker but also reaffirm our commitment to purity, authenticity, and a sustainable future. In every FOKUS product, you'll find a blend of tradition and innovation, all centered on the well-being of both the individual and the planet.
Discovering FOKUS
In a world inundated with endless notifications and constant demands, the idea behind FOKUS was born. We realized that with this chaos, individuals often lose sight of the simplicity that brings serenity. With the growing need for calm, clarity, and genuine connection, our mission at FOKUS is not only about creating natural products but offering a gateway to moments of genuine stillness amidst the whirlwind of life.
The Power of Simplicity
Nature became our primary inspiration. This is evident in our commitment to all-natural ingredients. Starting with soap was a deliberate choice. It's an everyday item, often overlooked, yet has the potential to transform a mundane routine into a tranquil escape.
Mission Unveiled
At FOKUS, our mission is simple yet profound: to be a a beacon for the natural, the genuine and the authentic in a world swarming with synthetic solutions.
As the soapmaker in ancient Aleppo would meticulously blend natural ingredients, little did he know that he was setting a precedent. A precedent that FOKUS proudly carries forward, refining and modernizing, yet never losing sight of its essence.
