Soap is a product that has been made for decades in many homes in the counties of Castellón. It was a deeply rooted tradition. It is an article that was essential for day to day life, and this fact led to the progressive emergence of an incipient industry at the beginning of the 20th century in the province and that reached 21 companies in 1945.

Some of them, such as Bellmunt, Montoliu, Beltrán or Chavalín, were a reference at that time. Now, the history behind this sector and the social and economic importance it had during the twentieth century is collected in an exhibition organised by the Universitat Jaume I, which was inaugurated on Friday 1 April at the Menador Cultural Space.

Through 12 panels, the most important moments of this industry are shown thanks to the documentation collected and the testimonials of families such as Bellmunt or Beltrán, in addition to the explanation of the stages of soap production. The exhibition also includes a space where old machinery such as a die-cutter or a 100-year-old soap counter, several objects and old documentation, on loan from the centenary company Jabones Beltrán, are exhibited. This activity is part of the UJI-Encultura projects, promoted through the Sociocultural Activities Service, and linked to the Vice-Rector's Office for Culture and Institutional Relations of the Universitat Jaume I of Castelló.
