Why Organisations work with The Washing Machine Project

We are more than a product supplier. The Washing Machine Project partners with humanitarian and development organisations to design, deploy and measure laundry programmes that restore dignity and return hours of time to families.

Our Divya Manual Washing Machine is built for off-grid, water-scarce settings, and every deployment is grounded in local partnership, rigorous evidence and shared learning.
