MEET MARK & LYAN.
‘Why has something as easy as washing your hair turned into such a circus?’, Mark & Lyan wondered ten years ago. Little did they know that they would spend the next few years of their lives at their kitchen table testing, testing, testing. Years later, they developed a formula with only the active ingredients of a shampoo, compressed into a bar. In 2018, the first plastic-free shampoo bar in the Netherlands appeared. And it worked.
FROM SHAMPOO BARS TO SOLID.
For eight years, our name was ShampooBars. That was a logical name for a brand that made shampoo bars. We wore that name with pride because it was clear and it perfectly matched who we were then. You may have been with us from the beginning, or you might have joined us somewhere along the way. Either way: without the people who bought a bar all those years, we wouldn't be here today.
Over those eight years, ShampooBars grew into a range that includes conditioner bars, body bars, deodorants, face scrubs, and hair masks. The old name no longer covers what we offer, which is the best problem to have. That's why we are now called SOLYD. Solid products made from ingredients that work. Solid choices, because every bar you buy is a bottle that never needs to be made. Solid impact, built by 300,000+ households and over a thousand stores that together show this way of caring works.
