Foaming soap dispensers mix liquid soap with air to create a foam. When you press the pump, the liquid soap is pushed through a mesh screen, blending with air to form a lather. This process not only makes the soap easier to spread but also reduces the amount of soap used per wash, making it more economical and environmentally friendly.
