The SEPAWA expert association is marked by a traditional history that goes back to the 18. century. Its original foundation began with an association of soap boilers which became the first loose association of the soap boiling craft in the year 1755 in Munich. One year later it evolved into the trade guild of soap boilers, of which the original guilt cup is still existence to this day. In the year 1900 the founding of the "Association of soap boilers and perfumers" took place in Munich. In 1920 this led to a national confederation with the "Soap Boiler Association" founded in Berlin in the year 1909 more...

The history of SEPAWA contains a variety of facets with regards to the history of the soap boiler craft and its succeeding technologies for the production of cleaning products and hygiene as well as for the comfort of our every day lives. SEPAWA reflects the detailed and versatile efforts of its members in keeping a professional association active over centuries and in revitalising it, despite difficult historical events more...

The SEPAWA association of soap-, perfume- and detergent experts e.V. is one of the largest expert associations in Europe with more than 1200 members.
The goal of this national association is the practical, scientific and further education of all those affiliated with any branches of the detergent and cleaners industry, cosmetics, perfumery as well as chemical technical applications.

SEPAWA imparts interdisciplinary knowledge and specific branch experience. Business experts, from the laboratory to the marketing department, are given an opportunity to receive further education and to extend their expertise by attending the annual SEPAWA-Congress or the regional events of the national committees.
However, the association does not only provide insiders with first-hand information and proposals, but also junior employees as well as all those who are confronted with merely the fringes of specific problems in the field.
SEPAWA considers it a necessity to ensure the future success of the branch by maintaining a permanent information-exchange between experts of the different production-levels.

The focus of the opinion exchange will be on all those subjects which are of importance for production, verification, packaging and marketing in the individual branches:
product attributes, verification of raw materials and agents, processing technology from raw materials to finished product, compatibility-testing with humans and environment, legislation and regulations relevant to the branch, marketing, perfumery, wrapping, new trends in the markets and interdisciplinary subjects.
While market structures today are becoming ever more complicated, other subjects besides raw material problems and processing technology are gaining more and more importance. These include compatibility, product liability and marketing.
