Great news, cheers!
Only if it has not been reformulated. Takeovers normally have a cost saving angle to them. But who knows.
I've got quite a liking for Valobra soap, so when I saw the Valobra hand soap for sale at the shop mentioned above I got quite excited and tried to order three bars only to be told that they could not ship to my UK address!A necro bump.
"Ludovico Martelli relaunches Valobra. Ludovico Martelli has announced the relaunch of Valobra, the historic Italian brand - acquired by Ludovico Martelli in 2018 - which for over 100 years has represented an authentic art of excellence and quality in the production of very fine soaps. In the years following the acquisition, the Genoa soap factory was completely renovated and projected into the contemporary world, respecting the prestige and historicity of the original site. The redesign of the factory includes a museum gallery dedicated to the brand's heritage and an experiential area where you can discover the uniqueness of the Valobra collections . Ludovico Martelli's missionis to preserve and bring back to life a rare tradition in the production of soap, carrying the mastery of the brand into the present through creations of singular beauty, for an audience that is increasingly attentive to the history and intrinsic value of the product. The new course of the brand begins with the re-edition of the Le Classiche collection, made up of the timeless icons that have always distinguished the promise of absolute quality of every Valobra soap.
Primula, Lettuce, Pratolina, Reseda and Assoluta are the first soaps reissued for the modern consumer, kept in precious customized packaging, today as yesterday, with artistic illustrations from the early 1900s. Even the new ergonomic shape of the soaps is wisely modeled, with an oval that adheres perfectly to the hand in a prolonged movement that releases the dense foam evenly on both hands, caressing the skin and leaving it soft and fragrant thanks to the creams and sophisticated fragrances contained in each formulation."
Here is one of the hard tallow bath soaps for sale.
