Are you making your own soap and looking for an inexpensive way to package your product and still have a quality looking product ? Then check out the Xopax machines for a solution that will enable you to seal your hand made soap but still have full visibility and some aroma as it sits on the shelf.Clear wrap easily shows off colors and texturesNice tight corners and folded edges look very proIf you're in the soap business or thinking about getting in then by now you have probably priced out those cute little boxes that designer soap sometimes arrives in. Sticker shock? Can't really blame you. Who wants to pay more for the container than the product? All this and the customer probably throws away the box along with all your contact info. Unlike boxes which hide your product, wrapping your bars with clear plastic showcases all the colors and interesting elements in the bar. Beyond that, because the seal isn't air tight, some of the wonderful scent comes through. Potential clients can pick up the soap bars without contaminating the product, get a close look and also enjoy some of the nice smells that hand made soap is famous for. They will feel comfortable knowing that the soap is clean, free from someone else's touch that may have come before them. Okay, the boxes look cool and have your logo and other information neatly printed on them. Good point for the box industry until you realize all you have to do is place a business card or other nice printed piece on top of the soap bar and wrap the plastic over it. Now the customer opens the package, throws away the plastic and maybe, just maybe, they keep your information card. Maybe they are old school and have one of those Rolodex thingy's that they store it in. The point is that it is more likely an end user will keep a business card than a box. This is extremely important for repeat business.Okay, this sounds great, so what does this cost? How cheap is it? This is fast becoming a very popular method of marketing handmade soap because the plastic film used in this method costs less than a penny per wrap and the machines are simple and don't cost a fortune. So, $.01 USD per wrap and a machine that costs just over a thousand dollars and you are wrapping your product. Xopax PX12 comes with a one year warranty on the electronics and a lifetime warranty on the rest of the machine. This is a manual machine so it is not super fast but once you get the technique figured out you can easily wrap 100 bars per hour. If this sounds good then I highly recommend you watch this short overview video. If you want to dig deeper then we have a more in depth video teaching proper technique. Questions?
