Our story
At Lesseau, we believe that true hygiene starts with taking care of yourself and the environment. As a Dutch brand, we are committed to a world without single-use plastics, offering stylish, innovative dispensers for bar soap. We are proud to be the official supplier of soap dispensers for UTMB and are launching an exclusive three-year partnership filled with clean hands and pure adventures.
Clean trails together
The partnership between Lesseau and the UTMB World Series is about more than just performance. We share a deep passion for nature, adventure, and sustainability, with a shared mission to reduce our ecological footprint. With our dispensers, we aim to raise hygiene standards on the trails to a new level. Together, we’re contributing to a more beautiful, natural world, one step at a time.
A fresh finish
Marcel Magermans, CEO of Lesseau and an avid ultratrail runner, knows better than anyone how important hygiene is after hours of trekking through mud and mountains. Our biodegradable soaps provide natural refreshment. UTMB runners experience the system firsthand at select aid stations and through our special limited-edition travel soap dispensers.
Hygiene with impact
One push of the dispenser and fine soap flakes fall directly into your hands. Add a little water, let it lather, and you have pure, efficient cleansing.
Lesseau was founded in 2016 and stands for “less water.” Our mission began with one simple yet powerful idea: the soap industry needed a revolution. Too much unnecessary water, too much single-use plastic. That had to change. With Lesseau, we’re redefining hand hygiene: smart, natural, and respectful of our planet.
Lesseau x UTMB Limited Edition
At every UTMB event where we are present, we launch a special limited edition of our travel soap dispenser. Inspired by the unique spirit of each race, these editions are available only in limited quantities at the UTMB event.
Soft skin on the trail
Our soaps contain mild, natural ingredients that deeply moisturize and nourish your skin. We add plant-based oils, such as olive oil for nourishment and glycerin to help retain moisture. This allows you to thoroughly cleanse your skin, yet always gently, without drying it out. The result? Supple, healthy skin, even after many washes during long trails.
