UTRECHT, Netherlands,
Oct. 18, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --
Diversey Holdings, Ltd. (NASDAQ: DSEY) a leading provider of
hygiene, infection prevention and cleaning solutions, has been
named winner of the "Profit with Purpose" award at the World
Sustainability Awards 2022, for its Soap For Hope programme, an
initiative which falls under the "Care" pillar of Diversey's
Protect. Care. Sustain. Sustainability strategy, aimed at improving
the lives of people in the local communities where Diversey
operates.
Diversey's ESG approach entails Creating Shared Value (CSV)
programmes, through which Diversey collaborates with its customers
in order to maximize the impact, while also striving to promote a
circular economy. Launched in 2013, Diversey's Soap for Hope
programme provides opportunities for underprivileged communities to
earn a livelihood by recycling waste soap from hotels into new soap
bars which are distributed to those living in unsanitary conditions
at risk of life-threatening infections. The programme has so far
diverted almost 3,000 tonnes of soap from being sent to landfill
and has been rolled out with more than 1,000 hotels in 189 cities
across 45 countries around the world.
"People are at the center of what we do, so we are very excited
to see that Diversey's Sustainability initiatives are impactful.
Winning the Profit with Purpose award is a testament to our
commitment to our ESG Strategy," commented Gaetano Redaelli, Chief Strategy Officer at
Diversey. Commenting further on the win, Stefan Phang, Global Director for ESG and CSV at
Diversey added: "We are honored, and would also like to recognize
and thank Coupa for their efforts in driving sustainability impacts
with their customers and for their partnership with World
Sustainability Awards to present this award to us. This is a win
for us all."
The World Sustainability awards is a stand-out celebration of

corporate and social sustainability. With over 150 entries, the
