Pangea Organics

Joshua Onysko, founder and CEO of Pangea Organics, devotion and commitment to delivering social sustainability sparked the beginning of Pangea Organics 8 years ago. The development of Pangea Organics is not just selling beauty products and personal care items; it’s achieving something for the greater good. He pursued the idea of starting an organization where he can incorporate this idea with other corporations. Onysko’s concept is to make them socially responsible and environmentally aware.

His friend Tom told him that he could get the funding by making a soap company and call it “Pangea”. It was this inspiration that drove Onysko’s to follow this passion. He moved to Boulder Colorado and got a job there as a baker in Whole Foods. And during night time, he’d experiment in making soaps in his garage.

He and his mother would use making soaps as their bonding project. They would sell these soaps to their friends and relatives. He would then save some for himself to use when he’s traveling. It was in Goa that he truly appreciated the soaps they made. He also got positive responses from people he sold them, saying that it cleared up eczema and problematic complexions.

Pangea Organics currently holds the largest manufacturer of cold-processed organic soap in US alone. Its product line includes bathing items like gels, hand soaps, lotions, facial skin care products and lip balms. Pangea’s focus on building an ecocentric bodycare is still an inspiration even up to now. All their products are organically made without adding harmful chemicals such as parabens and petroleum.

Since its all natural, most of Pangea’s products begin to decay after 48 hours of exposure. Most of the profits earned from this company are given to the Pangea Institute, a non-profit association where they teach sustainable means of living and business customs.

Pangea Organics also gathered distinct awards for taking up social responsibility and the high-quality results his products brought. For over 4 years, it gathered about 40 awards from Best Product Performance, Innovation in Package and Design and Environmental and Social Responsibility. Here are six of Pangea’s well-recognized products:
