A long-time advocate of natural, organic, fair trade and sustainable products and manufacturing processes, "Pangea is committed to being of service to humankind even at the expense of lost profits in the process," said Joshua Onysko, CEO and Founder of Pangea. "We place principles over profits, and by doing so, we have developed a loyal customer base of like minded people who support these ideals. It works, just not in the conventional, unbalanced, 'profits-over-everything' way of doing business, but in what we believe is a new paradigm of consciousness where principles and profits work together to bring 'balance' back to business," he added.

Pangea Organics invests the time and energy to understand the full environmental, social, and manufacturing costs of every natural and organic soap and bath product it brings to market, taking responsibility for each of its products through its entire life cycle, beginning with the cultivation of raw materials to the impact of its use in your local environment. Pangea's vision for a sustainable future guides every decision it makes.

And sustainability doesn't stop with Pangea's ingredients. It routinely engages in socially responsible business practices, ranging from its choice of packaging materials to a waste-less production process.

Pangea also takes care of its employees, offering them a safe, friendly work environment and a living wage.

Proceeds from Pangea Organics also go to support the The Pangea Community Fund, a non-profit organization providing education about the environment and social sustainability.

"Our carefully chosen natural organic ingredients, the handcrafted methods we use, the way our employees feel about their contributions, and the projects we are able to support through our profits, all coalesce to make our natural soap and personal care products as beautiful as they are functional," said Onysko.

"When you purchase one of our products, you are demonstrating your commitment to fair trade, supporting organic farmers, healthy workplaces, the use of renewable, recycled and recyclable packaging, international and local community building, and a more sustainable future," he added.

Pangea Organics also specializes in private label soap and bath products for manufacturers and retailers alike.
