In case anyone is wondering, the soap is stacked after cutting, because it needs to "cure", or finish saponifying. This ensures that (a) the remaining lye in the soap has reacted with the olive oil, so it does not burn your skin (which would be _very_ bad), and (b) it lengthens the usable life and effectiveness of the soap. These bars are left in these "towers" for months.
This is one of the most beautiful documentary videos I've ever seen. Their whole soap making process is unbelievable in this age. I loved watching this and appreciate that it was done without narration.
The gentleman in the opening scene probably began there as a young man running the buckets down and up the stairs. Moved onto smoothing, then sweeping, marking out, on the mallets, cutting, wrapping then the brewing. Well done with dignity gents.
Right? There's something about seeing someone doing work that they're very good at that is very soothing. I'd love to visit the factory and watch this first-hand.

The love of my life gifted me a bar of this soap after 4 years of watching this video. And im writing this to say to anyone else watching this to numb the pain or soothe themselves--- it gets better and the soapies will always be here in the meantime. I have watched this video dozens of times over the years-- its so soothing to me, simple, ASMR-ish, just relaxing to see such beautiful work's fruition. I first saw it when I was about 16 and it helped so much with my anxiety-- I would watch it on loop to go to bed and would periodically return to it over the years, becoming obsessed about it and forgetting over and over. I am now 20 and in my first long term relationship--- as things became deeper between us we shared we both struggle with really intense anxiety and so showed him the soap video I would always return to just once. 2 months later I received my very first bar of this unreal bar soap from him out of nowhere-- he just remembered that I had always wanted one. Now I am putting the bar in our bathroom of the apartment we are moving in together soon. Let me tell you that this bar lathers so nicely. It smells so pure and earthy, when I smell it I feel like I am in the Nablus factory with these men. I love it so much even though its a bit drying on my skin. xxx
@@OffGridInvestor I have both, and am also in graduate school. But I am glad to be soft and not let difficult things make me jaded. I am wishing you peace since you clearly need it from such a comment on me writing something nice on a soap video.
Ok. If they used gravity right then the guy mixing the stuff should be upstairs and then they just need a tube to let the soap go out onto the floor under it. Then they wouldnt need to carry the soap in buckets.
Unfortunately they are not. I am well aware of this industry in Aleppo, Syria. These guys work day and night and get almost nothing by the end of the month.
What craftsmanship, at every step in the process, including the guy with the lightning-fast hands wrapping them! 😳. It also strikes me that you'd have to be very accurate in the process of cutting the bars - not only to have a consistent weight per bar, but also to have perfectly straight sides so that they can be stacked in those drying-towers without toppling over. Amazing...
I was just wondering why no one commented on them doing each line of cut by hand. That’s amazing. Many of these steps were fascinating but the line cutting...
Since they already made the lines I would think a long blade with some hammers would cut much faster you might need two people but it would be much faster.
No matter what part of the world...no matter what the job....no matter how well of a life I may be leading....mad respect to those who work hard and honest to provide and fulfill their responsibilities.
This was so inspiring to watch! I've learned so much in the short film. I salute them for working so hard to keep many people clean and fresh! Thank you for sharing.

Wow ! That's amazing! I bet they are so tired when they finish working everyday. I've seen comments of people being so rude and judgmental but they are working this hard for money, to provide for their families and these days everyone is so use to having things handed to them. There is hardly any hard work don't these days and when you work hard like these people, you break a sweat and I'm fairly certain THERE IS NO AIR CONDITIONING ! Awesome job guys !
Dee Dee because you're a women so even when you get a job that does require some work you either say "that's a guys job" or just pretend you can't lift it. You're extremely out of touch if you think there's no hard work left. Go and be a chef for a month or a builder or any trade really and tell me how easy it is. Plenty of hard work left it's just only men who are expected to do it.
Very true. I ordered some of this soap they work so hard to make and got it in today. Talked to a few people from work that are from that region and they said the soap is great.I ordered it here - www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00537QFK4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Crazy thing it was $7.49 a day ago and now it's $8.99, but still worth it for the work they put into it. I'm happy.
DeeDee, I'm glad you appreciate hard work, but as far as hardly anyone does hard work these days, I can assure you there are still many many people working very hard to earn a living, there's someone making and building everything, they just aren't people you know.
How can anybody not find this fascinating, I’ve just spent 30mins on Google finding out about where Nablus is, what of soap this is etc etc, I’ve learnt geography, history, botany and economics just because of see what they were doing and why, oh yes it doesn’t smell
Makes me appreciate how spoiled we are, and how readily available soap, shampoo, actually pretty much anything that we need. So many people take soooo much for granted and would quit a job like this within the first few hours of the 1st day.
The reason why I got interested about this soap is that it cleared my skin for real. I had a horrible cystic acne, blackheads all over my nose, and post acne dark spots in short my skin was in the worst condition you could imagine. I tried everything natural masks, korean cosmetics , everything, but nothing helped even made it worse. It's been a month since I started using this soap and it's like a magic
5:48 I would love to know what these men are in conversation about, this is a wonderful video and showing us how traditional handmade soapmaking is done, they make it look like an art. I would love to travel to Nablus one day and learn from these hard working people.
My prayers are with the Palestinians right now. I pray this amazing place does not get destroyed.. Its heartbreaking and tragic to watch the bombs falling on the Gaza Strip😢😢😢😢😢😢🙏❤❤❤❤❤❤
This really is amazing... every bit of it. They are doing an awesome job. No machines, no chemicals, human efficiency at best. Even the wrap is natural. This truly is organic. Hats off to them. I never have appreciated any video so much. This whole thing takes you back in time. Love it. Wish I could be there.
If they used machines they would be able to make double or triple the amount per week and prevent back pain and long term problems like arthritis. The wrapping could easily be done by a machine and every worker there would still have a job to do but they would just be operating the equipment instead. This would not only increase their income for their families but make it to where they could expand their business.

This was wonderful. It's just like homemade soapmaking, but on a large scale. This may not be the way we make large quantities of soap bars in the most technological countries anymore, but if there's ever a disaster and we can't get soap or the complex automated factory machines, this is how we'll make it, the old-fashioned way by hand. Just like people everywhere in the world still do in their kitchen, but here on the scale of a commercial factory operation. Really fascinating to see. Everything they did made sense! And the process of an ancient soap factory probably looked just the same. The tradition continues.

We are soapmakers (Stoney River Soap Company), and I am just fascinated by this wonderful video. I've watched it three times in the past couple of years. Those guys work so hard. One thing that was skipped, though, was video of the men actually lifting the soap off of the floor. The man who is wrapping the soaps... I would lose all circulation in my legs sitting like that. This all looks so ancient, yet they do have UPC codes on the wrappers. All-in-all this is a classic.
Am Jewish but this are My personal heros, I think you are amazing, extraordinary , good work. Keep it simple, keep it classic, keep the quality. greetings from the other side ;)
My great respect for you all. It's not just great products. But already a matter of the heart. They are special people. This is art . I use these products every day. I wish everyone peace and happiness in the production. God bless you all !!!!
This is art. The hard work involved is way too much for a commodity way too trivial but I am sure that these people love their art way too much for machines to let it run. I love this too. Such a therapeutic video too. Would love to buy a dozen or two of these wonderful soaps one day! :)
Honestly though the economics of it are not so bad that it’s not a good gig. Consider the overhead of modern machines, maintenance, parts on hand etc. The work is great for their health and actually maintains them better.
though i am a mechanical engineer, and part of my job is inventing machines, i really hate how machines are replacing hard workers like those... wonder if machines are blessing or curse..
4 роки тому+1
omar Al Wareh do this job for only one day, my friend, then ask yourself that stupid question....
gotta do the changing process carefully and prepare the workers that will be replaced by the machines to get other jobs. the terrible thing is not the automatization persi, but people losing their jobs and not having any education to do other jobs that are not based on physical force or repeated action (things that machines can and are substituting)
@@Estela130998 also the fact that those who run said businesses sometimes see the easing of work relative to physical labor an excuse to strain their workers mentally instead. Not seeing the toll of the work as easily has had that chilling effect.
Wow, this is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! 👏👍 I make soap at home, and have a project to start a business! 👍 Anyway, besides that, it's gorgeous to see those men so dedicated and skilled in their handcrafted job! 👍
Yes, Richie H we know that, because we've visited the factory. Why the dimwitted sarcasm? Did you not see that another armchair commenter claimed the film was made elsewhere? If you have nothing to say, please move along.
They are good sized bars and you can make them stretch by cutting the cube in 3 strips! When it comes to homemade natural soaps cutting pieces off as you need for use, makes them last longer ;-)
What a difficult job! To work all that soap on the floor has got to be hell on the knees and back! It is hard enough to cut finished soap on a table, but to have to do everything on the floor is much more painful. I hope these men are able to live a nice life after soaping.
In case anyone is wondering, the soap is stacked after cutting, because it needs to "cure", or finish saponifying. This ensures that (a) the remaining lye in the soap has reacted with the olive oil, so it does not burn your skin (which would be _very_ bad), and (b) it lengthens the usable life and effectiveness of the soap.

Love these soaps! Have been using them for years.
The best quality!

This is amazing!!! I love how it’s all done by hand.
I think it is fascinating!!! See how fast he wrapped those bars
ACCELERATED VIDEO. LOL
I cannot imagine having to wrap a million soap bars by hand
Anarchy Aa
I have to slow the video down to .25 Speed to see how he does it!
how do you slow down a video?
Do they play Jenga when they get bored?
Stacked to dry and harden.
Amazing. I admire tradition. If we kept more of it , the world would probably be a better place. I ordered just to support
Thankyou for showing us the beauty of hard work. A wonderful tradition.
extreme soaping! amazing the stamping and those curing stacks are so pretty!
my back is screaming just from watching 5 min of this.
Western blue collar workers these days are pathetic. No wonder China is all over it.
Thank you for posting this interesting video of a traditional soap making process.
dont know how i ended up at this end of youtube, but its so satisfying to watch lol
Back breaking work and none of them young men. God Bless them.
Am Jewish but this are My personal heros, I think you are amazing, extraordinary , good work. Keep it simple, keep it classic, keep the quality. greetings from the other side ;)
Great of you. I am Hindu, Indian,respect. 😊😊😊😊😊🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝
I think its cool, keep it traditional! When big corporations get involved sooner than later a great product becomes sub par I love it
Simple and beautiful this is there art.
"Their"
This is some absolute backbreaking work!
thank you to show process :)
I bought some because of this video and it’s amazing. Highly recommend
I love this soap, I bring some everytime I visit Palestine. Love that country !
The most beatiful documentary!❤❤❤❤❤
Well done, everything by hand!! A practically hand made soap!
Hard working job .. bless you all
Omg! He's so quick with wrapping soaps
I’m a big fan of the Palestinians 🇵🇸❤️
My great respect for you all.
It's not just great products.
But already a matter of the heart.
They are special people.
This is art .
I use these products every day.
I wish everyone peace and happiness in the production.
God bless you all !!!!
You guess are awesome, without any technology you are doing so precise & accurate and finally the guys who was packing that was the fantastic
The old guy at the beginning waiting for the other guy to move the full bin and then reposition the empty bin in front of him 😂😂😂
This is art. The hard work involved is way too much for a commodity way too trivial but I am sure that these people love their art way too much for machines to let it run. I love this too. Such a therapeutic video too. Would love to buy a dozen or two of these wonderful soaps one day! :)
Honestly though the economics of it are not so bad that it’s not a good gig. Consider the overhead of modern machines, maintenance, parts on hand etc. The work is great for their health and actually maintains them better.
I only buy organic artisinal hand cut floor soap...
mjkulikow LOL
birdman33369, You carnivores sicken me. As a *vegan* I make sure my soap is only fed the most organic plant life possible.
🤣😆😅
My soap is so vegan, the products used in it don't even cast a shadow.
you forgot with a moderate amount of toe jam
Wow this is great men you have sharpened my skills.This time i will not strangle with making single bar moulds for my home made bar soap.God bless.
though i am a mechanical engineer, and part of my job is inventing machines, i really hate how machines are replacing hard workers like those... wonder if machines are blessing or curse..
omar Al Wareh do this job for only one day, my friend, then ask yourself that stupid question....
Nothing wrong with automatization, humans adapt to changes
gotta do the changing process carefully and prepare the workers that will be replaced by the machines to get other jobs. the terrible thing is not the automatization persi, but people losing their jobs and not having any education to do other jobs that are not based on physical force or repeated action (things that machines can and are substituting)
@@Estela130998 also the fact that those who run said businesses sometimes see the easing of work relative to physical labor an excuse to strain their workers mentally instead. Not seeing the toll of the work as easily has had that chilling effect.
I bet they smell good when they come home from work
Yeah I doubt that, unscented lye soap making process doesn’t smell so good.
Smell like bubblegum machine.
Yes that right i'm going to that please it smael soooo goooddd
Tabitha no one
@@ThomasWLalor shut up
Wow, this is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! 👏👍
I make soap at home, and have a project to start a business! 👍
Anyway, besides that, it's gorgeous to see those men so dedicated and skilled in their handcrafted job! 👍
This soap is made in Palestine from olive oil
mamoun gharib this video took in Syria
You are wrong. I was there. This is Nablus.
nablus is in palestine. learn some geography.
Yes, Richie H we know that, because we've visited the factory. Why the dimwitted sarcasm? Did you not see that another armchair commenter claimed the film was made elsewhere? If you have nothing to say, please move along.
if u re-arrange the words in the sentence it reads: this palestine is made in olive oil from soap. such is magic of words.
I watched this video a year or two ago and I had to buy this soap and I can't believe I found the soap perfect for my skin and it is this.
Amazing. I’m from USA and I’m still amazed.
It’s it just me, who mainly enjoyed watching the soap wrapping process 😊
An ancient art! Beautiful!
Amazing to see how they make the soap there! wish i could wrap soap bars that fast! lol
Tell me the name of the soap
Such backbreaking work. These men work so hard. I hope they go home to a good meal and a massage. I salute you.
Always a pleasure to watch people doing something useful.
I want to buy one of these!
Amazon has them for $10 a bar.
They are good sized bars and you can make them stretch by cutting the cube in 3 strips! When it comes to homemade natural soaps cutting pieces off as you need for use, makes them last longer ;-)
No I am not.
supporting israel financially = yes you are.
actually all americans are with their tax dollars when they buy shit. LOL!
Johnnie Cockran Fool, I make my own Allepo soaps. Nice way to assume a discussion about the process means I buy the product.
Just watching this is hurting my back. After one row id need a perc lol
What a difficult job! To work all that soap on the floor has got to be hell on the knees and back! It is hard enough to cut finished soap on a table, but to have to do everything on the floor is much more painful. I hope these men are able to live a nice life after soaping.
5:13 its good to know that these guys are playing Jenga and working at the same time. 😁
I could watch this man packing soaps for hours.
الله يعطيكم العافية ، تحياتي من السعودية لأهل فلسطين الحبيبة .
Hope A. شكراً وتحياتنا لأهل بلاد الحرمين الشريفين الشعب الكريم ذو النخوة
Such hard work. Such respect for those guys.
Wow. Now thats hard work.
Remember when a guy in the comment section tried to convince us that this is cheese? XD
Very cool video. I went and ordered Nablus soap after watching this
I don't why but this is so satisfying to watch.
Im using this soap its soft to skin...smooth.. organic soap no added artificials chemicals.
When you boared, UA-cam recommends you something new .
