Description

Description ⁵

The innovation concerns a bar of soap made from a transparent or at least almost transparent mass.

As is well known, brand-new bars of soap often have an inscription or a brand on their surface that identifies the manufacturer or provides some other information, e.g. an advertising message.

These are located on the surface of the soap piece

There are also bars of soap that are made from a more or less transparent mass.

The innovation is that such a soap

The insert body is located inside the soap bar.

The new type of soap therefore has the advantage that information applied to the insert or the insert itself remains unchanged and visible until the end of the soap bar's use. However, the insert can not only be a carrier of a brand or advertising medium, it can also be a simple collector's item, small toys for children that encourage more intensive use of the soap, loyalty tokens or similar.

Preferred embodiments of the innovation are identified in the subclaims.

In the following, examples of the innovation are explained using the drawing. Figure 1 shows a bar of soap 1, inside of which there is an insert body 2a (shown only schematically here).

body 2a is just as visible in brand-new, unused soap as it is in soap that has largely worn away after prolonged use.

In a particular embodiment, the soap can be made of a material which has the property that the soap bar is opaque when the surface is dry and only becomes transparent after the surface is wetted, so that the insert body is only visible when the soap is wet.

Figure 2 shows a perspective view of another embodiment of the soap according to the invention, in which the soap bar 1 is made from an upper half 3 and a lower half 4. The insert body 2b here consists of a µ print which is first applied to the lower half 4 of the soap bar, whereupon the soap bar is then completed by placing the upper half 3 on top and the print is enclosed. The insert body can also be made from a soap mass of a different color.
