Bringing new life to used hotel soap, the Houston Marriott North has become a proud participating partner in Clean the World®, a global project impacting millions of people around the world.
Discarded soap bars and plastic bottles are no longer going into the trash and ultimately local landfills, as housekeepers at the prominent now collect the barely used products. As collection bins fill, the products are shipped to a Clean the World Recycling Center where products are sorted, surface cleaned, sterilized, ground and remanufactured into new bars. Soap is then distributed worldwide to those in need through partnerships with non-governmental organizations including World Vision, Feeding America, Harvest Time International, Children''s International and The Floating Doctors.
Clean the World maintains testing validated by SGS North America to ensure that all bars of recycled soap are safe and free of disease or pathogens and completely safe for end users.
