Our Story
Hello! Our names are Fouad and Pontus, we are 21 years old and the founders of Lyckåsen. When we were 6 years old, Fouad came up to me (Pontus) and said that the two of us are about the same at football. This was the first step to what would turn out to be a great friendship. Something that we have in common more than just football is our drive and commitment to make a concrete difference and create something unique together.
These factors laid the foundation for what would come to be known as Lyckåsen. At Lyckåsen, we not only sell soap, shampoo and soap dishes, but we strive daily to make a concrete difference. To actually make this positive difference, everyone needs to help each other. Today, plastic bottles are by almost every sink and are also found in almost every shower room – it's a problem! Lyckåsen wants to help change this. When you buy a soap or shampoo from us, you make a direct difference, not only by removing the need for plastic bottles at home, but also by helping to fund the planting of trees.
For every kilo of soap or shampoo sold, Lyckåsen plants a tree. It gives women and men living in poverty the opportunity to cope with the effects of the climate crisis, increase their resilience and improve their living conditions, both immediately and in the long term. At the same time, carbon dioxide is sequestered and the climate is improved.
By having created Lyckåsen and implementing this sustainable cycle, we are getting closer to our driving force "to make a concrete difference"
Our Ambition
Our ambition is simple: to eliminate all plastic bottles from your shower shelf and replace them with sustainable alternatives that are kind to both you and the planet. To achieve this, we have introduced our innovative Shampoo Cake as well as two handmade natural soaps. These products are not only gentle on your skin but also on our environment, and each use brings us one step closer to a plastic-free future. With us, sustainability is not just a vision, it is our reality.
Our values
At Lyckåsens, we protect the equal value of all people and see differences as a fantastic force. We strive to include and maintain an openness in our community.

At Lyckåsens, our values are not just words – they guide every decision and action to build a strong community and nurture our world for a sustainable future.
