Materials Used
Bamboo grown without pesticides. Agave fiber or palmyra fiber (plant fiber) bristles. Metal staples to hold the bristles. Sealed with a water-based polyurethane (synthetic material similar to rubber) varnish.
Agave Fiber: CASA AGAVE® agave fiber bristles are grown, harvested, sun-dried and processed in Mexico using traditional techniques to ensure a high quality and strong natural fiber.
Sustainability
Moso bamboo, known as the giant bamboo or timber bamboo, has been used for centuries to fashion buildings, flooring and culinary tools. The young shoots are often prepared into Asian dishes. The plant fiber bristles are made from agave fiber mixed with palmyra fiber. Lightly coated with non-toxic wood coating to reduce cracking and splitting. FSC certified by TÜV SÜD Czech, Prague.
Why it matters: Plastic bristle scrub brushes shed tiny pieces of plastic called micro plastics. Unfortunately these tiny plastic pieces are not filtered out fully by sewage treatment. So when you hear about the "Great Pacific Garbage Patch" the majority of this garbage patch in the Pacific Ocean is actually tiny pieces of plastic that aren't even visible to the human eye.
These tiny plastic pieces are being eaten by marine animals and ending up in the food chain, being consumed by humans in sushi restaurants around the globe! And if you're vegan, they are ending up in our tap water too. Help us turn off the plastic tap and choose a more sustainable option for humans and the planet.
Storage and Care
To reduce cracking, keep the wood parts dry and do not soak or submerge them in water. You can oil your brushes to reduce the potential of cracking if you regularly submerge your dish brushes in water.
How long it lasts
Each brush can be used for 1-3 months or longer depending on frequency of usage and proper storage.
End of Life
Continue using this brush until the bristles no longer work or the brush head falls apart, then compost or bury in garden or dispose in a green waste bin. Stop using the brush and replace it if you see any mold growth.
Great size and durable!
This was a nice bonus item to receive.
I use it for veggies. Works very well for potatoes.
Love the brush but am a little sad because after only having it for a few weeks the handle is already splitting.
This brush is sturdy, dries pretty quickly & doesnt leave bristles behind
I love this brush. I use it on all of my ceramic pans, mugs and pots.
At first this was a very useful tool, but it's soon cracked and began to splinter after only a month. Was not able to use the became uncomfortable. Also it is not something you can use for all dishes as getting into cups is impossible. The fiber of the brushes did hold up okay.

This is great, makes it easy to use the soap.
Amazing, I love love this for all my pots and pans. I use the dish cloths for my plates/bowls/cups/etc and the dish block is so foamy. Truly is the best combo. Love how clean my dishes are❤️
