Plantopia, Inc. was
founded in 2002 with two thoughts in mind.
"Celebrate
the wonders of the plant world and give something back."
It is our mission
to offer botanical based products for body, bath and home that
contribute to the promotion of natural, alternative or eco-friendly
products. Through the sale of our products we will in return
make donations to organizations that support the wellness of
the earth.
Plantopia has successfully
launched its first product line of handmade, vegetable based
soaps. Plantopia soaps do not contain artificial colorants,
fragrances or preservatives, are scented using pure essential
oils and colored with natural herbs and herbal teas. Plantopia's
soap labels are printed with soy ink and made with 100% post
consumer fiber. The same is true for our gift boxes. The decision
to obtain eco-friendly packaging was an expensive decision for
a small start up organization. The decision was made in a desire
to hold true to our own beliefs and in an effort to set an example
for others to follow.
Our first sale
was in December of 2002 to Mr. Tom Shaginaw of Tampa, Florida.
When he learned of our slogan "Buy
Three, Plant A Tree" he purchased one of our 3 bar
gift boxes and helped us to plant our first tree through the
Trees Across America Campaign. This campaign is sponsored and
supported by Earth Day Network and American Forests' Global
ReLeaf Program. It is the support of loyal customers, friends,
family and organizations that share in our visions that make
all our efforts worthwhile.
As we continue
to grow we look forward to introducing new products, planting
more trees and finding new ways to contribute to Mother Earth.
Thank you for your kind support.
