Create & Co x Alepp
Create & Co Interiors are thrilled to launch our Products For Purpose range, hand-picked beautiful goods with profits that give back to important social causes. Every month we will launch items that champion sustainability, equality and support people in need. Our creative director, @leah_hallis_design interviews the makers and brands themselves to understand their mission and purpose, giving our community the opportunity to make a purchase that has a social impact.
Our very first Product For Purpose brand is @aleppsoap - an ancient laurel berry and olive oil soap (only 2 gorgeous natural ingredients) that nourishes your body, face and hair. 100% of profits support asylum seekers and refugees through the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre (@asrc1 ) Founded in Melbourne by Kate Ryan, the idea for Alepp came about during the 2020 pandemic. It was a simple concept — bring an old product to a new market.
Currently, Alepp Soap is sourced directly from Syria, although this may change in the future depending on the nature of border access between Syria and Turkey. By sourcing the soap this way, Alepp are supporting the traditional soap makers that have been devastated by the war in Syria.
Alepp is a nourishing and gentle cleanser, plastic-free with a positive community impact in each bar. Each bar lasts around 60 washes giving you a luscious, beautiful clean your skin will love. The packaging is also beautiful like the product itself - intricate letter pressed, embossed, custom designed wrapper and packaging using recycled paper. Alepp is now available on our website.
