Abstract: Packaging is provided for high moisture bar soap compositions to address a number of potential problems associated with high moisture bar soap compositions, such as minimizing moisture loss, inhibiting mold growth on paperboard material used in the packaging, and preventing the development of colored stains on the bar soap and packaging resulting from chemical reaction between the high moisture bar soap and the paperboard, especially recycled paperboard. The bar soap packaging comprises a laminate material comprising a paperboard material, a thermoplastic material disposed on at least one side of the paperboard material, and a fungicide.

Abstract: Cleansing bar compositions having high water content comprise: (a) at least about 15%, by weight of the composition, of water; (b) from about 40% to about 84%, by weight of the composition, of soap; and (c) from about 1% to about 15%, by weight of the composition, of inorganic salt. The bar compositions further comprise a component selected from the group consisting of carbohydrate structurant, humectant, free fatty acid, synthetic surfactants, and mixtures thereof. The bar compositions preferably have a Water Activity (“Aw”) of less than about 0.95, preferably less than about 0.90, and more preferably less than about 0.85. The bar compositions are preferably manufactured by a milling process.
