Dear Maker,
Aromantic began with a simple passion: empowering people to craft natural, skin-loving products at home. Two decades later, that mission remains unchanged—but the world around us has evolved significantly.
In the last year or so, we've faced substantial cost increases across our entire supply chain. From raw materials to packaging, energy costs to transportation, nearly every aspect of bringing quality ingredients to your doorstep has been affected. These rises stem from global supply challenges, expanded import regulations, currency fluctuations, and increases in shipping and logistics costs multiplied within many of the ingredients we source. Additionally, recent UK employment legislation has significantly increased our mandatory labor costs across all operations.
We've absorbed these increases for as long as possible, but to maintain the quality and performance you expect, a modest price adjustment on selected ingredients and kits will take effect on June 1, 2025.
This necessary step allows us to uphold our exacting standards—organic certification where stated and fully traceable supply chains—without compromise.
Behind the scenes, we're actively working to minimize these impacts by:
-
Negotiating larger volume contracts with suppliers
-
Diversifying our trusted supplier network
-
Refining our in-house processes for greater efficiency
Rest assured, should market conditions improve, we will pass those savings directly back to you.
Stay tuned for some exciting news! In the coming weeks and months, we'll be announcing several new developments that we're absolutely thrilled about. These innovations represent our ongoing commitment to supporting your creative journey.
Your creativity inspires everything we do at Aromantic, and we remain committed to supporting your craft through these changes. Our customer service team stands ready to address any questions you might have.
Thank you for your continued support as we navigate these challenges while championing ethical, high-quality ingredients for every formulator and soap-maker.
With gratitude,
Benjamin Borseth & The Aromantic Team
