Our eco sponge is crafted from wood pulp and long lasting natural fiber and comes in a 100% recycled unbleached Kraft box. The sponge side is made of 100% biodegradable and compostable wood cellulose, a soft material with high water absorbing ability. The scrub side contains a premium blend of Sisal (Agave) fiber and recycled polyester adhesive. Ergonomically designed S-shape for comfortable hand grip and easy scrubbing. Perfect for the kitchen and bathroom, safe to use for delicate glasses, stainless steel, non-stick cookware, ceramic surfaces and much more. Washable up to 60°C. Wash before using. After each use, rinse with water and air-dry. When it´s time to dispose, separate the two halves; compost the yellow sponge and dispose of the scrubber.

Why should you switch to eco-friendly sponges?
Traditional synthetic kitchen sponges are composed of petroleum-based polyurethane, which makes them resistant to biodegradation. Every time you wash up using one, small pieces of sponge, a type of microplastic, are washed down the drain into our water systems. The microplastics cannot be removed from water or soil because of their small size. They arrive to the ocean and stay there until they are consumed by marine life, or ingested by humans. Over 800 million synthetic sponges discarded each year in Europe alone and it takes hundreds of years for every single plastic sponge to decompose. Natural sponges, made from plant fibers, can take up to 5 years to break down completely. Pure cellulose sponges decompose within a few weeks in soil.
