What you’ll find

What Savonnerie Bertaud is known for

The Bertaud family left industrial jobs to found this soap workshop, registered and based in La Rochelle, making cold-process bars sold under their own Bertaud name. Their own site recounts the shift from factory work to small-batch soapmaking that started the business.
