Types of Soap Molds:

HDPE: All of Loaf and Block Molds are made of HDPE.
  • Long lasting – do not degrade from essential or fragrance oils.
  • Easy to clean and maintain.
  • Lining is recommended.
  • High temperature tolerance – up to 200°F (93°C)
Acrylic Plastic: We used to make molds with acrylic until we found out about their short life span – then we switched to HDPE.
  • These molds don’t release any easier than HDPE but look pretty.
  • Eventually, they break down and start cracking from the oils used in making soap, specifically the essential and fragrance oils. These oils start degrading the plastic gradually until cracks form.
Wood: Needs to have some type of liner. 
  • Breaks down and warps over time, warps, 
  • Do not stand up to professional, repeated use
  • Will eventually have to be replaced
Stainless Steel: Stainless steel molds are the best option after HDPE, in our opinion.
  • Great for M&P soap.
  • Expensive in both labor and material. 
  • Needs to be insulated very well to maintain an even saponification.

Soap Mold Liners Explained:

Mylar: Releases nicely but can stick a little. 
  • Avoid wrinkling, as the wrinkles will remain and are very difficult to flatten
  • Hard to get to stick to the mold if too thick
  • Soap can sometimes get behind the plastic, ruining part of the batch
  • Wires will not press down into it to allow a clean cut on the bottom
Silicone: Releases very well and seems to stick to the mold side well.  
  • Works well for small soap molds or soap molds that allow you to remove the soap by flipping it over
  • Will degrade over time and use
  • Tears easily 
  • Expensive initially and with replacement. 
  • Can shrink over time if not made correctly
  • Can outgas depending on the type of silicone
  • Needs to be cleaned between uses to avoid crossing fragrances
  • Wires will not press down into it to allow a clean cut on the bottom
Thin Plastic Sheets: We don’t see the point, as once you remove the mold, you still have to peel off the plastic and not bend it.
  • Does not release any easier than the plastic soap mold than the soap mold used
  • Difficult to hold to the soap mold sides
  • Soap sometimes gets behind the plastic, ruining part of the batch
  • Wires will not press down into it to allow a clean cut on the bottom
Shower Curtains: We have not tested these, but we don’t use them either.
  • They release well and are inexpensive
  •  Most shower curtains are made in China and out of PVC, which outgases
  • Not sure if the wire will press into it to allow a good clean cut on the Loaf Table
Teflon: Releases okay but is known to stick to some types of soap. 
  • Do not wrinkle it, or it will remain there and is very difficult to flatten
  • Can tear easily if thin
  • Hard to get to stick to the mold if too thick
  •  Soap can behind the plastic, ruining part of the batch
  • Wires will not press down into it to allow a clean cut on the bottom
Shortening/Oil Only: Some types of soap release well with just this. 
  • Sometimes just part of the soap mold can be coated, the rest lined.
  • Inexpensive, fast, and reliable – but make sure you know it will release. Test with a small batch first.
  • You can, in a pinch, run a wide thin blade like a drywall knife between the plastic and soap to separate.
Freezer Paper: Releases and adheres to the soap mold well.
  • Thick and does not make sharp corners without extra effort
  • Wrinkles badly, so it may be best to have a thin waste cut
Silicone Paint/Paint-On Release Agents: These eventually break down and need to be recoated.
  • When they break down, they go into your soap.
