Abstract With global fish consumption reaching 92.1 billion tons in 2017, the disposal and underutilization of fish waste have become pressing concerns, particularly in fish-producing nations like the Philippines, where fisheries contribute 1.8% to GDP. This study explored the potential of fish waste oil as a sustainable multi-surface cleaner. Using 40 kilograms of fish waste (Tilapia, Milkfish, and other common species), researchers produced 20 bottles (50 ml each) of cleaner, enhanced with strawberry essential oil for a pleasant scent. Tested on wood, textile, glass, and especially plastic. The cleaner demonstrated stain-removal effectiveness comparable to traditional products, leaving no residue or surface damage. Statistical analysis confirmed its effectiveness, cost-efficiency, and usability, highlighting its potential as an eco-friendly alternative to synthetic cleaners. This innovation addresses waste management challenges while promoting sustainable practices. Future studies should optimize the formula, assess long-term environmental impacts, and explore broader applications.
