NACCA handmade soap company was established in Kibbutz Mehravia by Ruthie Ben Artzi. Kibbutz Mehravia is nestled in the Jezreel Valley in northern Israel.

Ruthie named her company NACCA to celebrate her mother’s Middle Eastern childhood. NACCA means female camel in Hebrew; the root letters form the verb to clean! A perfect combination for a handmade natural soap company in the Holy Land.

Ruthie began her soap-making journey while traveling in Argentina. There, she was first introduced to the art of making soap by hand. She fell in love with soap making and promised herself that she would continue to learn all she could about it and that one day, she would fulfill her dream to make soaps in Israel.

Years later, after completing soap-making studies, Ruthie established NACCA. NACCA’s soaps are based on natural ingredients such as olive oil, shea butter, camel milk, and natural botanical ingredients from the land of Israel. 

Each soap is made according to Ruthies own carefully researched and crafted recipes. She formulates the soaps to deliver unique benefits and an always pleasurable cleansing experience.

Ruthie also offers soap-making workshops at Kibbutz Mehravia to share her love and passion for handmaking soap.
