This article introduces a product launch event focused on promoting environmental sustainability, showcasing four eco-friendly products derived from Sapindus: natural Sapindus hand soap, natural Sapindus shampoo, Sapindus saponin insecticide, and Sapindus biodiesel. These products harness the natural properties of Sapindus and play a crucial role in reducing chemical pollution and protecting the environment. The article highlights how each product reflects the environmental value of Sapindus and outlines the event’s objectives: to raise public awareness of environmental protection, promote sustainable development, and advocate for a “carefree and sustainable” lifestyle. Through these innovative products, the event aims to demonstrate the significance of Sapindus in modern life and inspire collective action toward environmental conservation.
