How Used Hilton Hotel Soaps Get Recycled
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 дек 2019
- Clean the World is a nonprofit organization that recycles used soaps, lotions, and other toiletries from hotels. Its partners include Hilton, Marriott, and Walt Disney World Resorts, among others. Clean the World has donated over 50 million bars of recycled soap to people in need in 127 countries since its founding in 2009. The organization has had to adapt as more hotel chains move away from single-use toiletries in favor of bulk offerings.
Hilton’s partnership with Clean the Word began in 2009, not 2019. The data presented in the video reflects the first seven months of the Clean the World Challenge - a promise to donate 1 million bars of soap by October 15, 2019 (Global Handwashing Day). Insider regrets the error.

I googled the sterilization process of soap so here it goes:
1. The soap is rinsed from any dirt/hair
2. It is put to furnace with temperature of 120 celsius or 250 fahrenheit, it is meant to kill bacteria and fungi
3. It goes through UV (ultraviolet) light to kill more microbial bacteria
You can find more information of the stages by googling if you get really interested
Edit: clean the world has left comment surrounding the process too, so you should read that too if you're interested more in detail of their method. My comment is more of a general way of doing it.
Zero X why's this not got more likes
Zero X when a comment explains it better than the video
I feel like there is still gonna be a few pubes that make it into the new batch tho.
@@Shoultes Clean pubes though
Zero X thank you
"How is the soap sterilized?"
*about a minute later*
"It goes through a sterilization process..."
oh. thanks.
nopushbutton 👌
How insightful, right? Glad it wasn't just me who noticed.
Mostly high temperatures I guess.
It may be proprietary information.
They wash it with a clean bar of soap of course
Q: "How do you clean the thing that does the cleaning?"
A: "First it is cleaned and then sterilized."
WOW! Top grade reporting!
"Surface cleaned," pay attention.
Q: "How do you install Windows 10?"
A: "First you turn on the computer and then you install Windows 10"
Edit in the question just because it sounds good.
What about those pubes?
lol wtf else do you want to know? it's a 4 mins video man, not a full documentary. recycling soap is not rocket science.
I have been "recycling" soap bits for years. In the Navy we used to keep the small bits left behind and smash them together and use them. Usually the soap had different colors and we called it "rainbow soap". I always keep my small bits and make new bars instead of throwing them away. Annoys the heck out of my wife. Just to be more clear, these "soap bits" would be about the size of a 1/4 bar and the size that gets hard to hold on to. Now days I save them for years in a small plastic bucket, then add water and heat to melt and pour "new" soap bars. The soap bits in the Navy were same 1/4 size bars that some guys just could not be bothered with and would leave in the soap dish. I never had any skin ailment while on active duty. I also retired in 1985 and have had no skin ailments since retiring. I always looked at soap as clean if you washed the small bar well before saving it. Sounds like some readers are put off by this practice. Wonder how well they would have fared when "soap" was made at home! Look up colonial soap making! Lye water made by pouring water over old ashes, added to animal fats left over from cooking. UMMH, I think I prefer my mashing small 1/4 bars together to completely use the soap I buy at the store.
I do something similar; when the bar gets down to a less than useable size I press it onto the new bar. And like many others I bring part used toiletries from hotels etc home.
what about the pubes?
@@michaelmclachlan1650 Hey I do the exact same!! Press it to a new bar before finishing my shower and it dries and becomes a bigger bar until my next shower :)
@@u.s.paratroops4633 Supplied free upon request.
When I was a child in the 50's my mother always saved the small soap bits and melted them with hot water to make new bars - a lot of people did that after the war.

@@papaclowntom5089 I already feel like I've wasted this opportunity
Better to simply throw the dry soap bar into your suitcase and use it when you get home. This eliminates transportation and recycling costs.
That's what I do. I figure I've paid for it, plus I can use it at home. It's not as though he has to de thrown away if it has been opened. I'd rather use soap than the bulk pump options too. I generally don't go back to a hotel again if they use the pump soaps.
Perfect
yeah i donate mines to shelters
No you idlot
I used to take all kinds of crap home because I always felt overcharged for the room. The India imported toilet paper though is kind of scratchy.
Seeing a child at the end, holding up soap with such a big smile, really makes you think about your own life.
They doing it for the camera it feels like some sort of Communist propaganda which it kind of is
@@EggwithSubscribers-mz9du Why should communism have anything to do with it? Just because they act a certain way for the camera, doesn't mean it's propaganda lmao
The kids get paid to hold the soap and smile.
@@karthikrao9289 So? Thats the deal with every ad testimonial. Are they secretly sad that they now have soap?
how is it recycled i thought everyone took one as a souvenir
I do the same think.
not doing the same any more
If I spot an unattended maid's cart in the hallway, it's game over.
Wtf, i really didnt think people did this 😂
Nope my wife never take but it's only me....lolzzz
taking the soap home and using it yourself is much better for the environment though, because it doesn't have to be desanitized and you're buying fewer soap products as a result.
The difference is that it wouldn't get donated to people in need.
they won't donate new soap because they USE the new soap in their hotel rooms. The "labor" of recycling old soap is free because they are all volunteers. Plus, where would all that used soap go?
@@boqoll you dont understand what unprofit means right ?
Ikrar Persada *non-profit*
rose novel why are people intent on making it seem like the perfect solution? This non profit organisation is only targeting and providing solution for ‘ used soap bars’.
I gotta say, having worked front desk for over 15 years, I quite frankly had no idea what housekeeping did with the soaps. Though while I was staying in a hotel this past weekend, the thought had crossed my mind about what a waste it was that this soap is getting used for two days and then, presumably, tossed, so kudos to Shawn Siepler for coming up with a great way to take care of that problem and helping out those who otherwise wouldn't have access to these products.
We just stayed at a hotel in Niagara Falls NY and it was the first time I saw bulk dispensers of soap, shampoo, conditioner, and facewash. It's such a simple thing and I wondered why it hadn't been done all along. Not only is it far less resource intensive, I am sure it saves the hotel a ton of money.
It is a good idea but once when I was using one of those, a dead fly gets pumped out with a handful of body wash. Still feeling too creeped out by that experience.
Yea Cambria does it. Until we find out that it’s just liquefied soap bars they buy from Hilton lol

You can also bring your own soap and shampoo... and hotels should sell toiletries instead of giving them for free.
All of that can be contaminated by 1 sick person
I thought they were going to use the recycled soaps at the hotels repeatedly.
B.Y.O.B. Bring your own bar... Or beer, whatever suits your fancy.
Haha-thought the same thing before I finished watching the video🤣
Some use too, my ex did maid service in the late 80's a small hotel... they recycled their own soap...
ew
I did too at first.
I take everything when i leave hotels.....even the mattress.
Heh 100$ for a mattress lmao 😂
Itchybell games bruh 😂😂😂
Don't forget to take home the 45" tv
Don't forget to take the whole bed....its much more efficient
Yeah hotel mattresses are comfier than my own :(
i take all the mini soaps and shampoos etc. they come in handy when going hunting / camping when you stay multiple nights. cuts down on weight :)
Did you watch the video???
Hey, that is the place I volunteer, honestly love the company, they are awesome, and in Las Vegas, every year, over 200 people gather together to pack the hygiene kits and ships them to certain places, I wish I could show pictures because it is an amazing event
Do you have any info on the company? I live in Vegas and I'd be interested in helping.
@@LivewireT how are people on the internet always aking stuff thats already answered. The company's name is said multiple times in the video, it's Clean tthe world. If you were to google "clean the world vegas" you'd find all the info you want
What do you mean don't be like Ross? Ross was actually not being wasteful, he didn't leave The soaps behind
Right!
And that's what they said! "Do not be like Ross. Leave stuff behind."
Ryan David you obviously don’t understand
@@ryandavid739 good job throwing that in 2:15...
I love Westin hotel soap and shampoo. I always bring home some.
Tech Insider: “Don’t be like Ross, and leave the toiletries behind next time you go to a hotel”
My entire family: *sweats in the bathroom of stolen toiletries*
I use hotel soaps in my drawers to keep laundry fresh. It's great, and everything always smells nice and soapy
If Ross left them they would be new and not need recycling. He was 'stealing' new stuff.
😂😂😂😂😂
They're technically not stolen because they are single use and come with the hotel room.
The recycling process takes time, effort and energy. From both an environmental and a financial perspective it would be better if people used up the single toiletries they get in hotels at home and to donate fresh, unrecycled soap to people in need.
I heard about this years ago on the radio the founder himself. I’m glad they are still at it strong, hopefully Covid hasn’t been too much of a hindrance or a roadblock.

I was really happy to see wall mounted shampoo, conditioner, and body wash containers in some hotels. This guy is awesome for preventing waste and preventing disease.
They tend to burst open while I’m showering. I have to scrap them from the shower tray. Just in case you think that bulk products used by many ppl are totally hygienic.
God Bless the guy that helped make all this happen!

I can be prevented by hand wash your
@@firname395 Nah God bless you ✝️.
Also friends: "It's soap. It's self cleaning."
Next time you use my bar of soap, think about the last thing I wash and the first thing you wash.
@@russellh8702 just rinse a bit when you first use it.
@@AnAirConditioner But it also destroys the cell membrane.
@@AnAirConditioner Pretty sure it has something to do with the fact that it bonds with water and with lipids (fats). If I remember right, that’s what makes most soaps work, and why they remove grease and oils so well (but only when water is present, as that’s how the lipids are carried away).
@@jSyndeoMusic You are correct.
I was wanting to see how they clean the soap, all I got was "It goes through a sterilization process" well thats really helpful - is it a trade secret or something
They don't show it because most people wouldn't find it a good enough process and be grossed out by it - that's my guess.
@@nickh5081 you're probably right, after all if their "sterilization process" was so good then they would be proud of it and want to show everybody it
They probably just heat it up, but even that would be pretty much unnecessary after rinsing.
@@WaynesStrangeBrain not sure, the heating probably has to be done before mixing and re-extruding it anyways
Do you not know how sterilization works? They can heat it up like they do to milk, chill it, or use a sterile liquid such a bleach or other chemicals
What great example of thoughtfulness. Rich people's leftover bars of soap getting recycled and graciously gifted to the homeless so that they too may have the opportunity to clean their behinds!
“So how do we sterilize it”
“We put it through a sterilization process...”
Most unhelpful explanation possible.
Daddy Sparkz I’m so glad someone else caught that. I was watching this video for the explanation
When you watch video to learn something useful and interesting but in the end just waste your time...
For slower people: What they do is great, I respect them for it, but I clicked on this video to learn how they do it, NOT what they do!
Thank you! That explanation gave us no Information!
Wouldn't want details getting in the way of this advertisement
@@dargon8461 most likely heated til they get melted into wax-like. Heating kills the germs and melting helps to consolidate and then reshape into bars.

Obviously...
This is a beautiful thing the guy did. I hope he is blessed.
something about this feels absolutely amazing, it feels like a basic concept many over look and the process of fixing it isnt too hard, but all it took was one good voice or one movement to step out world in the right direction one step at a time.
" all it took was one good voice"
And some cash to get started. When you are being evicted saving the world is not on the table.
It is just for them to feel good about them self, it does nothing to the world health.
@Andersi There is no possible way for anyone to actually do something good and have you believe them is there? They’re always “doing it for themselves” or “doing it for fame or recognition”. How about they just want to do a good thing? How about they actually have a heart and empathy for people other than themselves, people less fortunate than themselves? No of course not, they’re actually bad people for going out of their way to do something nice for people when they could’ve just... not done anything. Not everyone is a disgusting piece of shit like you who lacks all empathy for others. There are a lot of you, but you are mistaken for thinking you’re with the majority. What have you done to help anyone other than yourself? Sorry I mean how have you benefitted from “helping” someone else?
Tech Insider: "Here's how it works."
Also Tech Insider: Show what is done and skips the "how" part.
Isaiah I do know how it’s done,
UV light and high temperatures to kill all the bacteria that they can AFTER removing the lair of severely contaminated around the soap 🧼 so I think it works because high temperatures already remove germs and then UV light kills them all off not 1,000,000% accurate but 99.9 percent
@@sparklingstarsforeverinthe493 the comment was about the video, but thanks anyways
Exactly isaiah!
@@sparklingstarsforeverinthe493 thx
1:47 there says *heres how it works* be careful on what ur saying
It’s entirely too depressing to think that they’re people in this world who have to rely on charity organizations to send them basic hygiene products. Meanwhile, all we have to do is go online or walk into a store. Bars of soap, body wash, shower gel, bath bombs, shampoo, conditioner, multiple types of everything, multiple colors, and multiple scents. Even products customized for us based on our skin or hair needs. Things like this really humble me and make me grateful for what I have. I would love to donate some new soap to these people.
Well now no one can get a job making soap in those villages
@@CineZoneYT omg!!11! That's such a good point😳 it's totally not like they either couldn't afford soap to begin with or it wasn't even available to them🤔 room temperature IQ having a. Use some common sense
@@CineZoneYT Doubt that people from remote areas would be able to buy and travel for soap let alone someone most likely being in the same proverty level capitalizing on this. Instead these soaps aren't in a trash heap but are gifted to people in need
@@WICK_3D Then... no one can get a a job making soaps in those villages. As in that case it's physically impossible.

Taking the soap that you only used once or twice and using it at home is way way more eco friendly than the entire logistical process of recycling them
Yeah, doo-gooderism isn't too concerned with *actually* intelligent solutions. It only has to match public appeal.
They should simply have made a campaign that actively encourages customers to take toiletries home. Win-win. Customers get a nice souvenir/reminder of the visit and with zero hidden extra cost burden on anyone.
They could still do that and that would be a valuable test to see how the recycling nonprofit would react to that.
As a bonus, hotels could then donate toiletries to the needy directly and package soap in paper, not plastic.
It not about eco-friendly, it's about distribute free/ cheap soap to undeveloped country and help people
@Kaylee Castillo giving free soap so that local manufacturers can't compete and destroy whatever little industry a developing country has fantastic
@@giathuanleviet4138 you clearly didn’t watch the video. If you also can’t read the title is “How Used Hilton Hotel Soaps Get Recycled.” Not sure how you equate that to not being about being eco-friendly.
That's what I do. Any soap I open I take home to use. I leave the unopened soap in the room.
This is actuallu heartwarming and an amazing way of recycling waste and helping less fortunate people (children, especially). Now I won't feel bad about that toiletries I usually leave behind at the hotels I check in.
Thank you to all involved in this recycling operation.
Every year my school helps out Clean The World make those kits in Las Vegas and I can confirm we make 10s of THOUSANDS of them. I myself would actually use all the products because they’re so clean and high quality surprisingly.
This video lacks substance. Doesn't really explained how it gets recycled. Just saying it gets washed and sterilized isn't really explaining anything. How do you sterilize soap?

Really good question with no body can answer it
It’s in that machine. Unless you plan to make a plant yourself I don’t know why this question is relevant
Back in 1977, when I started off to college, my aunt gave me a bag filled win never used soap bars from the hotel she worked at as a housekeeper. The soaps were considered "defective due tio a printing error on the paper wrapping , that made the wrappers appear old and faded, but rather than toss them in the trash,the manager gave them to the staff for personal use.

S L you rub a clean bar of soap on the used bar of soap, making them both clean :)

@@Itssbreasia They are both dirty. Recycling soap is a real twisted and nasty idea.
pgnandt
Well, the water in our toilets get recycled and become either our faucet water or toilet water. It's not really that bad when you know there's something worse, besides, the soap's being treated and strerilized as hell so ofc it's gonna br clean. Also, it's beig donates anyways to peoplr who need it more than nothing
Good idea to recycle hard soap but I'm more interested how many plastic waste they produce by packing their soap in plastic bags as shown.
The hard soap i have in shops is packed in recycling paper and never in my life i saw it in plastic bags.
I thought the soap gets sloppily reformed and put back into hotel rooms, but thankfully it is cleaned and used for those who need it.
I been to this hotel
i thought the same too
I thought the same
LOL! You are giving me an image of some kid in the basement with a grinder and a mold! LOL! You know something's off when you find a strange pube in the middle of the soap bar!
That's Chuck E Cheese which recycles pizza slices.
that's so awesome. Genuinely appreciate the guy started this.
Their going to have a recycled toilet paper product you might also love.
I travelled as a service technician for 10 years and spent typically 4 nights a week in a motel. I often noticed the used bars of soap in the toilet with fresh bars back on display. I then saved the current bar which would take several days to consume, and I would put the new, still in the wrapper bars in my luggage. It didn't take long to amass a pile of soap at home that lasted years after I stopped travelling. Glad to see that some good has come from the waste.
For everyone saying that it’s sad they donate “USED soaps”it’s better than having nothing and they could easily have sold them and made a business and have a 20% distribution for the hotel
They could easily make millions and your saying that it’s sad that they’re donating it
Edit:It’s called recycling you also recycle plastic yet it’s sad that you recycle soap
We should be saving our people in need and the marine life that you oh so care about
not used... RECYCLED, we use recycled goods all the time, we even recycle water! The same water that was once in the toilet and sewers is recycled at a water treatment plant and made so clean you wouldn't even know its recycled.
As long as its Sterile and clean I see no problem with donating RECYCLED goods ESPECIALLY When they given to those that truly need them. A lot of us in the first world countries really take for granted some as simply as soap let alone electricity and the internet.
So get this USED IS BAD stigma out your heads because Water the thing we need to SURVIVE has been used and reused for as long as life existed on Earth
You think non propfits means not getting paid hahaha...cute

@@SC-dw3jz well yeah don't expect people to just work without any payment on something to this scale. Plenty of food pantry workers are paid. It doesn't mean anything if they are making profit more so what they do with it.

Or they could teach them how to make their own soap so they don’t have to rely on their company
You didn't explain how they sterilize the soap though.
don't be dumb.
They use soap to wash the soap

This is so fantastic!!! I hate how much waste there is in our society, and how amazing for this man to develop this project. We would take home the little bottles of shampoo/lotion and keep them in our suitcases for future trips (not like Ross!!!) because they had to throw them away (hospitals do, too…) I’m so glad that this is being made available to people here and across the world in need.
So glad someone started recycling soap on a large scale finally!
Is it just me or did they kind of skim over the whole “sterilization” process 🤨
They definitely just skimmed it. I'm still waiting
soap is too caustic for bacteria to survive. which is why it's so effective at washing your hands.
they just rebrand it and make sure there are no hairs.
That’s exactly what I was just about to say!
And can anyone explain who funds this not for profit NGO!
You're the type of person who would be disgusted by someone not wearing gloves while handling pizza dough. (the pizza is cooked at a high enough temperature that these precautions aren't necessary) The nature of bacteria and pathogens isn't that complicated, so do your research instead of throwing shade next time.
2:20 - HOW is it surfaced clean and sterilized though? I clicked the video solely to find that out, blood hell.
Ah, it's simple, they use a process that first cleans and then sterilizes the soap.
But seriously, they missed the most important question!
You rub another bar of soap against it.
That's why they put all the bars in one bucket.
I used the soap to clean the soap
They probably just rinse it. That should erode the surface layer. Then they might melt them for reforming, where the heat would sterilize the soap too.
Probably scrape or rinse the outer layer. Then they most likely melt the soap under extreme heat, while also using UV light.
I used to travel extensively and I'd just take the half used stuff with me and use it until it was done. Often I'd get to a hotel and never touch their stuff because I had stuff from the previous stay.
A lot of the times I would be booked into a dive and they wouldn't have anything so I came equipped. It also helped on my boat since you always wanted travel size stuff in the head anyways.
I also never had them bring fresh towels, kind of stupid to use something once and then require it to be washed...I mean, you're supposed to be clean coming out of the shower right? Many of the places I stayed in had "if you don't want your towels replaced, hang them up" so I always hung them. I also made the front desk know I didn't need my sheets changed every freaking night.
Try getting out clean if you’re a woman having period. Or if you’ve spent the whole day touring and simply don’t have energy to wash all your areas entirely. And no, it’s not that exotic case. You judge others by yourself but keep in mind people are different, with different needs. What seems stupid to you is essential for others.
*WOW* GOOD ON YOU MAN....!!!
I am blown away - 1 million gold stars for you.
“So what do you do for a living?”
“I pick pubic hair off used hotel soap.”
Greg Williams first of all it’s volunteer work second of all that sounds terrible and I know how they sterilize it anyway so 😪

Soap is self cleaning. Even if their are germs on it that get transferred to your hands, lathering the soap washes away those transferred germs, as well as the germs and dirt you where originally trying to wash off.

As someone who used to be a road warrior....I would occasionally grab the "unused" shampoo/conditioner and bring it home. Now knowing this stuff gets recycled....it's good and I don't bring it home. Great video!
I was SO DISGUSTED when I saw the hair on the soap, but I’m glad I finished watching to hear the process and see their faces light up from something we clearly take for granted - as usual!!! 😩
*I just eat the extra soap to be honest.*
-C Y B E R - came here to make a similar joke
PLEASE I'M LAUGHING SO HARD THAT I'M DYING HELP!
Just your average Swiftie calm down it’s chuckle worthy nothing more
Hol up
Is it good? My family won't let me try one. I'm so jealous.
Me: *listening to the video and not really paying attention*
The video: 0:38 “A thought hit him.”
My brain: A T H O T H I T H I M
I imagined a lady wearing a hot pink tank top just slapping him across his face

Haha
That's totally disgusting! I'm glad you think people who have nothing deserve a used bar of soap. Good Job!!!
Man.. at first I was like "ewww how tf?"
after seeing how they do it and what he did with the recycled soap, it took a real 180 on my soul
what a simple and genius idea to help those in need!
“How do you clean the thing that does the cleaning?”
“It’s put through a machine and sterilised.”
Okay thanks but HOW??
Royce Axle my guess is it’s heated and melted then resolidified. the heat should kill any pathogens but i aint so soap scientist
Wheatos where is your degree? bill nye is shaking in his safety goggles harvard where tf are you
xEliFletcherx whatever they are, you are definitely mean
Chocolate Donut ? wdym
Chocolate Donut i swear i wasent trying to be mean, i was complimented his excellent guess by making a joke, i meant no harm.
they should offer this program to prisoners as a way to contribute
They should offer a lot of programs for prisoners, but they don't. The people in charge couldn't give less of a shit.
If the privately owned prison owners can’t make money, they don’t care
They are afraid to drop the soap
If they get reasonably paid for the work then sure. Otherwise, making them work while already serving their time is exploitative.
They should kill them and render their fat into soap?
Soap stuffed with rolled money is still the best idea for helping poor people, surprise them, draw smiles on their faces
Thank you for sharing
What a beautiful contribution to the world
We all have a purpose
Too bad not all hotels worldwide do something like that
Adding the price of additional training for the housekeep, paying for delivery, and transportation of the toiletries I can see why hotels don’t get involved. More costs = less profit. Some are filthy rich and won’t even bother doing things like this.
Be happy they are doing it. Why look for the negative.
Ashley Harris, would you like my used soap? I'll send it to you for free.
...one less thing to feel guilty about....
No reason not to, they could even reuse them to save money
Plenty of hotels don’t do this
@Mark Y those*
true, but the 3 that are doing it are huge companies (at least in the USA) and its a good start
@Mark Y They said that 8,000 hotels do this, the three mentioned were just big names
Here’s to hoping other hotels follow suit
@@winxwest2964 Are you even remotely aware of how many hotels there are in the world!?
This kind of video makes me wish I could “Like” more than once.
What a good and resourceful man to start up this “Clean the World” I don’t like the thought of all this wasting it’s so dumb. I’m glad they found a way of recycling it and are doing that.
There should Literally be a rule, bulk liquids or recycle with these hotels
That’s such a good idea! I’m surprised we weren’t doing this sooner.
"It goes through a sterilization process"
WHAT IS IT?!?!
Am I the only one who wants to know how they sterilize the soap?
It's likely just a high temperature for an extended period of time. Alcohol and other chemical based means would probably leave a smell or residual chemicals, and ultraviolet light probably isn't as effective.
Your not alone. I want to know and I have no idea why
@@RyanTosh å
@anna nova does soap even melt?
the guy above me is right
Some guy: ‘het what do you do for work’
That guy: ‘i clean soap’
Yep he need a nobel prize
@@jfjeskkswl we need now two nobels one for his underated comment and one for ur awful funny joke

The cleaning crew at a local motel I worked at all the way back in 1992 used to collect opened soaps, there was a local place that accepted them and did similar for local needs.
In the 70s I was cabin crew on 747s for British Airways. One cabin crew member took things to a new extreme. When we were checking out of the hotel in Tokyo (it was the Heathrow-Anchorage-Tokyo trip) he was asked to open his suitcase in the lobby. Two of the hotel's rather nice dressing gowns tumbled out. He was mortified.
The recycled ones look even better than the smaller button like ones that the Hotels give out
Yeah I really hate that shape
Those aren't the soap. It's the reformed shape when it gets pressed out after being sterilised.
JME don’t you think they know that
@@chrisandthemike9020 judging from the comments previously I'm guessing not. If they have I've been mistaken. But I'm sure there are likely others who don't know.
xXPORTALXx same I want to carve my rectangular soap bar into one of those shapes lol
Woah ok wow??? I used to work at a Hilton hotel as a housekeeper. I always wondered why they asked us to save the used bar soap 🤯
It's good to know that they actually do that and don't just say it for commercials!
Thanks for replying. I travel a lot and primarily use Hilton, and always through the bars in the trash so the housekeepers didn't have to worry about dealing with it. Could you please let me know if there is a preferred way to package it for this reason that would make it easy on them as well?
@@ElliLavender I worked at Hilton and we never did this
@@timtimtimmay4654 simple. Leave it sitting where you used it. No reason to make extra work by making them search for it or have to spend time unwrapping it from something.
"How is the the that cleans, cleaned"? "It goes through a surface cleaning process". Thanks for that in depth explanation.
That’s good! I never leave a soap. Always put it in my toilettery pouch and use it until the end. (I spend half of my time in hotels across the world) and I have my own shampoo and conditioner and I refill them at home.
Everyone: but how is the soap sterilized?
Insider: oh they just wash the soap
Everyone: with soap?
Insider: oh...
Not really like that
They didn’t even address it in the video lol
Soap is self cleaning
@ThinkGamer they talk about a sterilisation process but don't go into detail. Do you have another source?
Possibly with rubbing aclohol
Cool but they didn't even answer their own question: "How do you clean the thing that does the cleaning?"
Answer like "Soap enters surface cleaning before sterilization process" sounds kinda generic
I think they just use water. Maybe the soap all on a conveyer belt flat, with water splashing at the soap before going to the machine
I'm guessing UV light.
If science can't explain it, then it's definitely magic. Probably dark magic.
@@momentary_ UV will penetretate only 5 microns into something, I.think high temperature.
A strong jet of water over the surface should remove the majority of contaminants, high temperatures should kill everything else.
I always take everything home with me, I don't think I've ever purchased a bar of soap from a store in my entire life
Very nice! Those organization really know what they arr doing!
*This is actually like recycled paper*
*soap is completely sterilized* and fresh as new.
That part should have been shown, too, in this video but *it is mentioned* though.
The plastic bins also get cleaned, too.
@Paul nmn they probably boil it and claim thats good enough. Its a money grab by some genius that stole the idea from the company named waste management and the company named goodwill. Their business model is to accept others garbage then sell it for profit.
@@andrewgrandma2816 And why is boiling it not good enough?
@@griffin8062 I imagine some people might get antsy about skin flakes or the potential for the odd hair, but surface cleaning was mentioned too. Washing a bar would erode the top layer and remove the vast majority of that sort of thing, after which a heat treatment would be totally fine and sterilize them well
This video acts like it's going to explain the cleaning and sterilizing but then explains it with "they are cleaned and sterilized"
Comments are full of guesses
No idea how this video has so many thumbs up.
Next video will explain how the bins are cleaned
"How do you clean contaminated soapy bins?
You clean them snd then they are shipped back to the hotel so they can collect more for those poor children "
This guy is a fu*king genius!
Edit: Thanks for all the likes!!!! 😁 👍❤️
gamerboi88 You can say that again. Why the hell didn't I think of that?! 🙄
What's the point of * ??
@@kamallb4650 Lol nothing really I guess...
It's disgusting because u don't where the soap was used
@@omarattar4165 it's a soap. please tell me how a soap works
Awesome! :) we need more start ups like this!
This is brilliant! And also recycling the container products too.
