Simply, Linen Re-Use Programs revolve around asking guests to use their bed linens and towels more than once. When guests participate (over 70% of guests do) and re-use their sheets and towels, hotels save money in reduced water, energy, labor, detergent, and sheet/towel replacement costs.

Environmentally, Linen Re-Use Programs make a large impact, saving 6000 gallons of water and 40 gallons of detergent monthly (based on an average-sized 150 room hotel).
