Stote is a social enterprise that aims to extend the lifecycle of textile waste and promote a sustainable lifestyle.

The current project focuses on recycling textile waste from hotels and upcycling it into new disposable products and souvenirs.

In the hotel industry, large quantities of bed sheets and curtains are discarded every year. Given that the production of these textiles accounts for 80% of the total carbon emissions in their manufacturing process, this vicious cycle of constant production and disposal results in significant carbon emissions. Stote, therefore, aims to break this cycle through upcycling. By replacing traditional consumables with upcycled products, Stote extends the lifecycle of these textile wastes, reducing the overall carbon footprint associated with their production and disposal.

From our past successful upcycling projects, we have received a lot of positive feedback about our products. All of it shows that consumers are very excited about the idea of environmentally friendly and sustainable products, and they are open to using upcycled items. Data also suggests that an increasing number of travellers are seeking more sustainable options in the hospitality industry. The market is ready to go, and so are we. How about you?
