 Thanks so much!

As a Vietnamese, I'd like to point out a few things. He got emotional and stuttered when he talked about his wife's suffering. His word choice shows he genuinely cares and believes in his mission. Even the Vietnamese slogan is nice and motivative. That is a solid, respectable man right there.

We need more men like him. Wanted to help his wife but thought so big of a fix he made an industry

This makes total sense. He basically made pineapple vinegar, and we all know we can clean stuff with vinegar, so this is really cool and hope it gets more studies done on it.

I think it’s fantastic that he locally sources ingredients for his product! Helping your community is one of the most selfless things you can do because it can affect so many.

This man is a treasure. What a good man.

My dad uses fermented pineapple skin to mop the floor . I actually like the smell. And we water the plant with the water.

I’m so proud to be one of Fuwa distributors. Fuwa have great eco products and wonderful people with big heart. ❤🎉

The properties on Pineapple skin is also good for digestion. Everytime I cut a fresh Pineapple, I clean the peel and boil it with ginger and drink the tea. Add honey or agave if you want it sweeter. I'm impressed by this! It proves that everything can be used for something!

I want more alternatives like these to be developed and put on the market. The world needs it.

I already use castile soap and I look forward to something like this becoming more popular!

I cannot wait for this to become main stream. I’ve had pretty severe eczema my entire life. My hands are ALWAYS affected, it’s just too hard to limit exposure with them.

We clean since 3 years with our own fermented apple vinegar. Its the same like his product. Thousand of years people clean with vinegar. Please do more of those videos. We love it!

Here in India many are preparing bio enzymes at home to replace chemical cleaners We follow d same ratio 1(jaggery): 3(fruit peels) :10(water) Any citrus peels are v effective for cleaning

I used the products from Fuwa. They are great: clean and fragrant naturally

I love how we keep learning to take care of our planet. If we keep going this route and supporting people like this man, our future generations will praise us.

Bio enzyme making has become a popular practice in Indian homes during Covid period. Not sure how many still continue but it is a fairly simple process. 1 part jaggery + 3 parts any citrus fruit peels + 10 parta water :: place them all in a plastic jar together :: remove the lid once a day for the first 3 weeks and then once in every 3 or 4 days. Do the same for a period of 3 months and then strain and use it post 3 months.

The fact that he shows the process And gives the complete recipe out freely to anyone who asks says alot about him genuinely caring about the issue at hand.

As a vietnamese, i am so proud of him and his products to help us protecting environment.

His love for his wife and the world is divine

This is great stuff. I use pineapple skins to make fermented pineapple soda aka Tapeche which pairs nicely with rum in a tall glass over crushed ice.

could be great, but the video is missing an explanation of what the product actually can and can't do. you talked about very superficial tests about killing bacteria, but people normally clean with the primary intent of removing various types of visible dirt, and you didn't say anything about what this could do there. I know that that primary pineapple enzyme is great at destroying proteins, but that's quite different from the normal soap-based cleaning products that primarily dissolve fats in water. does the pineapple stuff also work for fats? also you called the product a "soap" after they added oils, but you don't get soap by mixing oils with acids, you get soap by mixing oils with bases. edit: read the other comments, feel dumb now for not realising that the stuff is vinegar. sure, vinegar has cleaning applications (though I absolutely despise the smell of normal vinegar used for cleaning), and if this process actually preserves the bromelain enzyme, that could make the pineapple vinegar more effective for some cleaning jobs than normal vinegar, since that stuff is really good at breaking down and dissolving proteins, which I believe are a category of substances that soaps tend to have a little bit of trouble with. but it would certainly not be a replacement for detergents, just a potentially better vinegar. and I don't see how it would be suitable for washing skin or accidental skin contact whatsoever, I don't want vinegar on my skin, and bromelain very noticeable attacks skin and mucous membranes whenever you cut or eat fresh pineapple.

I hope they're able to sell internationally one day!

I LOVE this world wide waste series. Please keep it coming.

World is moving fast with innovative people like him. I guess he is a real hero as well as a great lover who is driven to do this business by his wife's irritation to industrial detergent. Best wishes from Sri Lanka.

If we call the natural environment Mother, we are children who are always given many favors by Mother Nature such as clean water, fresh air, fertile land, ... However what have we done to repay Mother Nature for that? Every day, millions of people are misusing chemical cleaners for house cleaning. Imagine how terrible the water and the air would be polluted! Fuwa bases on eco enzyme knowledge to creat and develop the products. It means that Fuwa always cares about customers' health and has high responsibility for the eco system. There are lots of worries in your life. Don't let cleaning liquid be one of worries in your house. Thank you for the news! FUWA TEAM From VIET NAM

He’s so amazing for pioneering something like this.

I am so glad they decided to keep their trade open and shareable. That is what community is about. I hope Fuwa stays true to staying eco-friendly 😊

Hats off to him. We need more people like him!

I love World Wide Waste. One of my favorite KZfaq series. I always wish there was thousands of videos, but that’s not what people care about unfortunately.

During first year of Covid lock down, I came across a recipe for an enzyme cleaner made of citrus peel, sugar, water. My impetus for making it was for my son's cat who kept having 'accidents'. I read only enzyme cleaner was the only way to get the smell out. Besides making a lot of bread, I made a lot of this cleaner. I still have some, lol. I use the cleaner for general use cleaning. It's excellent and SO cheap to make!

World should be introduced about dealing with waste products otherwise that'll cause pollution. This one is nice❤

This is really awesome! Excited to see how much larger they grow in the future and hopefully will be able to use this soon! I started making my own soaps (castile) after standard store soap caused me to have extreme eczema. While not entirely gone, the natural soap I use now definitely helps reduce how dry my skin is. Thank you for showing the world the power of nature!

Omg, this is what my mum's been home brewing for years with pineapple skin and even orange/mandarins skins too. She would use it for everything like wounds, cleaning etc. I honestly would roll my eyes and call it mum's potion because she hoards as it is and this is contributing to the hoarding. But I do agree it works for dishwashing liquid, cleans grease well. I don't agree with all the other stuff it does. But I guess there is truth to what she's been hyping over these years.

I have also started making bio enzymes at home from orange ,lemon peels. Traditionally in India lemon ,Tamarind , stove ash was used as cleaning material with coconut coir used as scrubber.

This is genius! This should be replicated and supported all throughout the world.

the hell even I can make this at home, now I am gonna try it

I've noticed other countries are taking the lead in cleaner cleaning products. Africa is coming out with a plastic brick made from plastic bags & other garbage. It's something we could do here, but have chosen not to. It's encouraging to see others picking up the pace.

I am severely allergic to pineapple, its so bad that I break out in a rash if I just come into contact with it (let alone my reaction when I eat it)- this is amazing, just sucks I won't be able to use it, hopefully a different fruit comes around which is just as effective!

I use mostly vinegar in different concentrations for household cleaning.Would be great to have this for laundry.

Aww! Hoang is such a good person!! I'm going to keep an eye out for their fruit enzyme cleaners! 😊

Good to see fellow Vietnamese entrepreneurs 😊👍

i see alot of eco friendly breakthroughs but never see it implied i hope this one gets more popular and available

Once more tests are done, if it becomes available in my part of the us, I’ll probably buy it. I love supporting businesses like this!

The thing people should know is that pharma companies that focus on enzymes can source it from companies like these as well, you can utilize em in supplements for digestion and such, or even in a form for food preparation like tenderizers. Bromelain is super plentiful, or rather too plentiful so its dirt cheap getting it from food waste. This means that useful materials, if shipped can be used to encourage people to try to create products of their own, which can greatly increase competition against the normal products society uses. For instance teaching kids how to make soap as a form of science class lessons.

Enzyme sticks are awesome for drains. I used to have to use drano every other month to stop my bathroom drains from clogging

Wish him all the success! Such products are being developed and sold in India too but these firms clearly cannot compete on ad spends like the P&Gs and Cloroxes of the world can. So awareness among the general public is still low.

did this "eco enzyme" thing for a school biology project too, only difference is we used 10 parts water, 3 parts sugar and 1 part fruit peel + we just threw in whatever leftover fruit peels we had from eating (dragonfruit, orange) etc... smelled good, worked well 10/10 would recommend

Nhà tôi đang dùng toàn bộ sản phẩm Fuwa cho việc giặt rửa và vệ sinh nhà cửa, tôi rất hài lòng về sản phẩm này. Sạch, mềm dịu da tay, mùi thơm tinh dầu thiên nhiên mang lại cảm giác thư giãn khi sử dụng❤ 5:20

In Indian zerowaste community we make BIOENZYMES with citrus fruits peels, jaggery and water. Similar to the product shown in video it can be used as shampoo, floor cleaner, dishwash, washroom cleaner and plant fertiliser. U can checkout videos on KZfaq about bioenzyme and its preparation.

You can tell he's genuine when he shared his methods.... I hope this product will help many

As people are waking up to the idea of how to garden organically using bacteria, fungi and enzymes. This is opening up new active areas of research which can be and are clearly being used to find more natural non destructive solutions to the harsh chemicals used today. This is great to see and definitely good incremental steps In the right direction!

Very cool alternative to chemical products! Hopefully we can see the company switch to plastic-free containers or use recycled plastic to make it even better! I love seeing all these various waste streams get used for something rather than rot in a landfill

Gotta say saying that it works equally well as bleach and water with ONE particular bacteria didn't exactly fill me with much confidence... like how does it work with other bacteria? I mean I don't need bleach level of sterilization but I would like to know it cleans as well (or better) as regular soaps

Lemons are used in the production of many cleaners/detergents...so the acidity of pineapple waste is a similar concept.

I would totally be willing to try this, I really don't like most commercial soaps, they hurt my skin....this sounds like at the very least a partial very viable option....great work!

Oh my god of course, BECAUSE OF THE ENZYMES. We’ve known for so long that it’s a mild corrosive. How the hell did we not think of this before??

In mexico people use pineapple skin to make a fermented drink called tepache. It tastes really good.

There is many ways to make EM's (efficient microorganisms). Here in southeast of Brazil we use EM's made of rice and sugar cane. To clean, to pulverize plants, to drink, to composting... You name it. I think this company has a plus because pineapple smells better than ours!!! 😅

Yay, you're finally including links to the companies you cover in the video description.

Soaps and detergents are completely different. Dr Bronners is a great soap that doesn’t hurt anything and is completely natural.

love to see companys like this turn waste into new stuff

We need more people like him who understands the importance of replacing harmful chemicals with eco friendly products.. 👍

Largest SCOBY I've ever seen. 🎉 This is fantastic!!. Makes me rethink all my pineapple peels.

It is a good idea and you have done great job by awaring us about these revolutionaries

I was looking for an alternative to aspirin such as a bromelain compound but I’m glad those pineapple skins have found a niche market.

Cool, I hope this process expands worldwide. Smart man!

I like this and am impressed with the whole concept and process. I'm going to look into Fuwa and see if I can have it shipped to Australia. Thank you for this insightful story.

I started using an enzymatic cleaner when I had a cat. I’d already tried everything else. The enzymatic cleaner is really amazing. Cleans and de-smells. I still use it for things like chocolate in couch fabric, and it works better than anything else.

Hope there's a factory like this in the Philippines especially in our town

I've put citrus peels in vinegar and let ferment and use as a cleaner. I BELIEVE IN THIS CLEANER. Thank you for the video I am sharing . and Liking,

Congratulations to Hang for his brilliant initiative. He also appears wearing Argentina's jersey. He's a true champion.

I AM VERY GRATEFUL FOR THE SHARED KNOWLEDGE AND FOR THE HARD WORK OF THIS MAN AND HIS CREW!

I am totally and completely on board with this! I love pineapples! Put them to even greater use! ❤❤❤❤

My guy made and turned Tepache an old drink from Mexico into a cleaning product to help his wife, the environment, agriculture, and more that’s awesome.

Replace, never. Sometimes you NEED something extremely strong like EW, bleach, a strong acid, or fire. I love love love what this company is doing, around the house and in some commercial settings a gentler organic soap would be perfectly fine. Holding it at a low price point when they could could easily just focus on North America and join in on the green craze gouge, what a beautiful human soul this man is. Bless him and his endeavours, hope to see it hit shelves in Canada one day!

This is very similar to how Tepache is made. (A Mexican fermented pineapple drink)

I’m happy to see Vietnam trending up

In south africa we have boerseep it's animal fat soap it's good for removing stains. Natural stuff always work best. My mother makes lemon and lime atchaar and she doesn't throw the lemony vinegar away, she fills it in a bottle and uses it to clean shine silverware. This product is very cheap and faithful to nature want to try it

I am amazed with the ingenuinity of the Vietnamese. Very inspiring.

Thank you, I so wish there were more like you and we could change how polluted and poisoned everything and everyone is.

Man that was a beautiful, massive scoby

Here in USA some of us make this at home using Rosukans formula. It’s amazing how well it works for all household cleaning even in the dishwasher and the washing machine.

Such an amazing person

I used to make various types of alcohol at home. I experimented with various fruits doing so. One time I left a big tub of mix so long it went to vinegar, which is supposedly a great natural cleaner. This made me realise how easy it would be to make ones own cleaning products.

That is SO dope, what a great idea. I hope we can keep developing products like this that reduce waste

Gosh this video is a lifesaver for our research paper because it's very similar

I support and understand the mission of this company. One thing to note is that the packaging can also contain toxic chemicals which can affect your health.

Bio enzymes are very common and u can make it from many things, and instead of sugar use jaggery.... can be used for floor, utensil cleaning, shampoo body wash, detergent, pesticide, fertilizer , toilet cleaner etc,,,, and the fiber can be used for composting

GOOD VIDEO; EVERYONE NEEDS MORE THAN THEIR BASIC SALARY TO BE FINANCIALLY SECURED, THE BEST THING TO DO WITH YOUR MONEY S TO INVEST, MONEY LEFT IN SAVINGS ALVWAYS END UP USED WITH NO RETURNS.

I am a formulator and this is a must try. I'll come back here in July and give more details. Thanks for the heads up

You know, with all of the horrible stuff going on in the world, it’s nice to know there are people who are working hard to better the lives of other people and the planet.

Tepache is a fermented pineapple drink (with skin and flesh) . I love it !

It's so sad that it's not possible to order these products internationally 😢

THIS IS VERY INSPIRING, WE NEED MORE PEOPLE LIKE THIS THOUGHTFUL GENTLEMAN WHO THINKS 'OUTSIDE THE BOX'.

After going through comments, I noticed a great appreciation of such hype "enviroment" friendly product!!! So here is my suggestion to all of you, read the ingredient on the label of any product you wish to consume. This product rely on common SYNTHETIC surfactans for foaming, namely, cocamidopropyl Betaine and Decyl glucoside in addition to chemical preservatives potassium sorbate and HDBM (they call it other organic additives)!!!

If this were to be a product, hopefully it's cost efficient, cheap or equally as expensive as regular cleaning products. I hate it when there are certain products that insider presents and when i go to the link of purchase to patronize eco friendly material they are always more expensive than the usual eco-unfriendly stuff we use, which is very sad

This sounds like a great idea. However hopefully soaps like this would be labelled properly, telling us what exact fruits are being used in the soap. I am highly allergic to pineapples, so I wouldn't be able to use this soap

I hope this works & grows in popularity. Great idea! You can tell these people are serious about contributing to the health of the planet...they're giving the formula away...nice!

This is the best thing I’ve seen in a long time! I’m super excited on so many levels! ❤
