Are soap and detergent the same?
Not quite—though they serve similar purposes, the makeup of soap and detergent is fundamentally different. Soap is traditionally made from natural fats and oils combined with an alkaline base, making it ideal for gentle cleaning and handwashing. It’s been around for centuries and still does a brilliant job on everyday messes. Detergents, on the other hand, are synthetic, designed for tougher jobs like breaking down grease and stains in washing up or laundry. They're typically more effective in hard water and tend to lather more consistently. Our collection includes both types, carefully chosen to balance performance with aesthetic appeal—because the products you use every day should look just as good as they work.
Why choose stylish detergent and soap dispensers?
It might seem like a small detail, but the right bottle or dispenser can genuinely lift the look of your kitchen or bathroom. Refillable glass or ceramic containers not only reduce single-use plastic, they also give you the freedom to choose products based on performance, not just packaging. Our range of soaps and detergents comes in attractive bottles with minimalist labels, meaning you don’t have to hide them under the sink or in a cupboard. Whether you prefer a modern, monochrome palette or something with rustic charm, these essentials pull their weight visually and practically—sitting neatly by the sink without becoming an eyesore.
What makes Rinkit’s detergent and soap range different?
We’ve taken everyday products and given them a design-led twist. Our soaps are formulated to be kind on skin without compromising on cleansing power, while the detergents are strong enough to tackle daily dishes but gentle on hands. You’ll also find eco-conscious options made with plant-based ingredients, helping you cut down on harsh chemicals without cutting back on results. And because everything is designed to complement your home, the bottles themselves are as considered as the contents—sleek, simple, and reusable if you fancy refilling them later. In short, these are the kind of everyday basics you actually want to keep out on the counter.
