Basel, Switzerland
About
SapoCycle is a non-profit organization active in Switzerland, France, and Germany that collects used hotel soaps across Europe and transforms them into life-saving hygiene products. The soap recycling process is carried out by people with disabilities, empowering them through meaningful work.
The recycled soaps are distributed to families in need, improving sanitation and promoting proper hygiene practices, especially handwashing. By providing solid soap, SapoCycle also reduces plastic waste and minimizes harmful residues compared to liquid soaps, contributing to environmental protection.
Our approach combines social impact, health promotion, and ecological responsibility, ensuring that each recycled soap benefits both people and the planet.
