What is the Problem:
2 million children die of diseases - like diarrhea and pneumonia every year.
Hospitality industry throws away billions of bars of gently used soap into landfills every single year which
has a negative impact on soil fertility and the environment at large.
What are we offering: Our aim is to overcome the above problems by producing Recycled soaps from
left over soaps from various sources like households, hospitals, hotels etc.
Soap - combined with hand washing education - is the most cost-effective health intervention available
today.
Rural community is not only our customer base we educate the customer segments to produce these
soaps themselves and inculcate them in our workforce thereby providing a highly sustainable business
environment.
