Save your oil

Instead of throwing away your used oil in the sink, WC or garbage, keep it and get in touch with us, we will arrange a pick up, or simply come by the VetLab to drop it off in the our yellow container- Lodewijk Van Deysselstraat 16 

Good to know: All soaps are made from a mix of oils; the most common ones are olive oil, coconut oil, sunflower oil, and other kinds of oils.

At Boavistacircular, we make cleaning soaps using repurposed cooking oil. Which are a mix of only vegetable sources—no animal fats.

However, one thing is true: we can't guarantee what has been fried in the oil, as we intend to end the waste cycle by turning it into general cleaning soaps and preventing it from polluting our water and soil. 

Therefore, we can't say that our soaps are vegan, as the oil might have been in contact with animal products, even though it is derived from vegetables and nuts.

We receive many questions about the process of filtering and cleaning used oil.
When we collect the oil from restaurants or households, it comes dirty and smelly, just like all used cooking oil.
Therefore, it must undergo a cleaning process.
