Household waste can be turned into an all-purpose, environmentally friendly cleaner
TIME.CO, Jakarta – Jalantara Foundation and re.peat partner in management and usage efforts garbage presenting all-purpose cleaning products and eco-friendly stain removers using household waste materials.
Based on data released by the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK), during 2022, unmanaged waste will reach more than 8 million tons with a composition of 58.6% organic waste, 18.6% plastic waste and the rest of other types of waste.
Millions of tons of waste therefore contaminate open land and water bodies, especially in urban areas. Therefore, re.peat together with the Jalantara Foundation are trying to absorb household waste and waste to be used in the production of green products.

In its manufacturing process, re.peat products use alternative energy sources made from household waste and waste such as used cooking oil which is then processed into biodiesel.
Furthermore, re.peat also uses refined oil which is purified using high technology. The entire process has been standardized and is the result of research conducted in recent years together with the research team of the Jalantara Foundation.
re.peat cleaning product was specially created as a brand to support the circular economy campaign in Indonesia.
Both all-purpose cleaners and stain removers are designed as household cleaners using natural, vegan, eco-friendly yet high-performance ingredients.
Each of these products is also strictly monitored in each production process by experienced experts and has obtained a distribution permit from the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia.
