About Clean the World
Clean the World, an affiliate of Clean the World Global, is a global leader in sustainable environmental and social impact solutions. Clean the World offers a Global Hospitality Recycling Program that provides a zero-waste solution by diverting soap bars and plastic amenities that the hospitality industry would otherwise discard from landfills. The soap is recycled into new bars, while the plastic is either recycled into flakes that can be used to manufacture new products, hence embracing the circular economy, or used to create clean energy. By doing so, Clean the World helps reduce pollution, save water and decrease the carbon footprint of thousands of hotels globally, while helping improve the lives of women, children, and communities by donating the new soap bars to global NGOs, such as The WASH Foundation.
Since its inception in 2009, Clean the World Global has diverted over 27.9 million pounds of waste from landfills, donated over 86.3 million bars of recycled soap to global NGOs, and distributed more than 5.9 million hygiene kits to individuals in need.
