Hey I actually helped create this program. And as info the soap is given to third party companies, plastic is recycled (if bottled soap / shampoo), then it is hygienically processed and donated to a variety of causes. Let me know if you have any questions, but it’s not (for once) horrible capitalism something or reused in the hotels.
Thank you for being part of the solution! With so much waste out there, it’s nice to learn that at least some measures like these are being taken.
I’m curious what your job is that this is a program you worked on. Also curious if you had any pushback from hotels or if they reacted positively to the idea from the start.
Obviously this reduces waste which is nice but I was curious, does the program actually save money or does the cost to recycle cost more than what is recovered?
This part is taken care of by 3rd party companies so I can only half answer that. It bring zero savings to the hotel other than a insignificant amount less garbage that is taken away.
Recycling like this is much better and easier because you have large quantities of the same types of plastic all together. This makes processing, sorting and recycling easier. The soap itself is easy to process

That’s interesting though, thanks for following up.

But now what can I spend all this anger on?
