About Dr.Bronner's

Dr. Bronner’s is more than just soap—it’s a movement dedicated to making the world a cleaner, kinder, and more sustainable place. Founded in 1948 by Emanuel Bronner, a third-generation master soapmaker, the company has grown into a global pioneer of organic and fair trade personal care, while staying true to its radical vision of social and environmental responsibility.

From its iconic multi-use Pure-Castile Soaps to its regenerative organic agriculture initiatives, Dr. Bronner’s products reflect a deep commitment to health, sustainability, and ethical sourcing. Every bottle tells a story—not only of premium ingredients like organic coconut, olive, and hemp oils—but of a company that believes in fair wages, equitable trade, and taking bold stances on issues from animal welfare to climate change.

Family-owned and mission-driven, Dr. Bronner’s operates under the banner of the “All-One!” philosophy—a belief in the interconnectedness of humanity and the planet. Profits are used to support progressive causes, from psychedelic-assisted therapy research to community development programs around the world.

Today, Dr. Bronner’s remains an industry leader in transparency, integrity, and impact. It’s not just what’s in the bottle—it’s the values behind it.
