Our proprietary liquid soap formulation process
At Atlantik, cleansing is not the first step of skincare.
It is the foundation.
The Eco-C Method™, pioneered by Dr. Neil Maher, is our proprietary cold-process liquid soap formulation system used in the production of our Atlantik Body Wash and Face Wash.
It was designed to solve a problem most of the industry ignores: Traditional soap manufacturing destroys the very ingredients it claims to celebrate.
What Conventional Manufacturing Does
Most liquid cleansers and soaps are produced using sustained high heat, often exceeding 150°C for hours on end.
This level of heat:
- Degrades antioxidants
- Damages essential fatty acids
- Destroys delicate phenolic compounds
- Reduces bioactive potency
- Alters natural lipid structures
The result? A product that may start with beautiful ingredients but ends with a fraction of their biological value intact.
The product may list natural ingredients, but their potency and functional integrity have already been compromised.
What Eco-C Method™ Does Differently
The Eco-C Method™ reverses this.
We use:
- Minimal heat
- Very short exposure periods
- Controlled cold-processing technology
This preserves the natural lipid, antioxidant, and bioactive profile of our plant oils and marine extracts.
Cold is not a marketing story for us.
Cold is chemistry preservation.
And preservation equals performance.
Proven Performance Advantage
Independent third-party testing confirmed what the chemistry predicted.
Compared to international leading liquid soap brands, Atlantik’s Eco-C formulations demonstrated:
- 80× higher emollient levels
- 25× higher antioxidant levels
- 10× higher essential fatty acid levels
- 340% more active ingredients retained in our body wash
- 370% more active ingredients retained in our face wash
- Delivered antimicrobial and antifungal activity comparable to over-the-counter treatments, including effectiveness against biofilm-forming bacteria and clinically relevant fungal strains (See Study)
The difference is not ingredient selection alone.
It is how those ingredients are handled.
Sustainability - Because Cold Is Better
The Eco-C Method™ reduces emissions by approximately 80% compared to conventional heating processes.
But sustainability was not the goal. Quality was.
It simply turns out that preserving ingredients with cold technology also drastically reduces energy consumption.
For Atlantik, sustainability is not a checkbox. It is a by-product of intelligent formulation.
When cold preserves chemistry - and reduces emissions - we choose cold. Every time.
Why This Matters for Skin
When antioxidants remain intact…
When essential fatty acids remain stable…
When marine bioactives remain active…
Skin receives what it biologically recognises.
That is why our cleansers:
- Cleanse without stripping
- Support the barrier while cleansing
- Maintain microbial balance
- Nourish while they purify
