We collect discarded linens from hotels, produce upcycled goods from refurbished linens, and enable hotels to use remanufactured amenities.

About

Sustainable Journey is committed to climate action and women’s empowerment. We facilitate partnerships between industries and underserved women producer groups promoting environmental stewardship and upholding fair trade principles to drive positive ecological and social change. We have designed a circular value chain mechanism where we collect discarded linens from our partnering hotel chains; we provide technical-circular design support, capacity building on sustainable production, and market access assistance to underserved women's producer groups for them to produce upcycled hotel amenities from refurbished linens. Finally, we close the loop by enabling our partnering hotel chains to reuse the remanufactured hotel amenities benefiting from the sustainable procurement agreements. We believe our circular value chain mechanism has the potential for “systems change” to support sustainable consumption and production as well as community empowerment
