Replaces: Plastic dish brushes. Designed for scrubbing tough stuck-on food and heavy stains, including for cast iron pans. The brush can also be used gently on non-stick cookware. The long handle provides extra leverage for tough cleaning jobs.
Longevity: Each brush can be used for 1-6 months. Avoid leaving the wood parts soaking in water, as the wood will absorb water and may swell or crack. Hang the brush by its handle or place it in a dry spot after use. To keep the brush hygienic, occasionally dip the bristles in vinegar to help kill bacteria. The Moso bamboo handle is naturally antibacterial, but the vinegar will provide added protection. Replace the brush if you see any signs of mold growth.
Why it matters: Plastic-bristle dish brushes shed microplastics, which are tiny plastic particles that cannot be completely filtered out by sewage treatment systems. These microplastics contribute to pollution, including the "Great Pacific Garbage Patch," and are ingested by marine life, eventually entering the food chain and even our water supply. By choosing a sustainable option, you can help reduce plastic waste and protect the environment.
Sustainability: The long handle is made from Moso bamboo, a durable and sustainable material often used for building and culinary tools. The plant fiber bristles are made from agave fiber mixed with palmyra fiber, providing a strong and eco-friendly alternative to plastic. The handle is lightly coated with non-toxic wood coating to reduce cracking and splitting. FSC certified by TÜV SÜD Czech, Prague.
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 durable natural fiber.
Ergonomic Design: The long bamboo handle provides a comfortable grip, allowing for easy maneuverability and effective scrubbing. The design reduces strain on your wrist and arm, making it ideal for extended cleaning sessions.
Durable Cleaning: Strong, natural bristles are designed to tackle stubborn food residues, stains, and grease without damaging surfaces. Safe to use on cast iron, ceramic, and stainless steel cookware, it provides versatility and thorough cleaning.
Multi-Purpose: Suitable for everyday dishwashing and perfect for cleaning pots, pans, and even delicate non-stick surfaces. Ideal for those looking for an eco-friendly solution to a variety of cleaning tasks.
Biodegradable Materials: The handle and bristles naturally biodegrade, reducing your carbon footprint and environmental impact. The biodegradable construction makes it an eco-friendly alternative to conventional plastic dish brushes.
Hygienic: The bristles have natural antibacterial properties. For extra hygiene, regularly dip the bristles in vinegar to kill bacteria and keep the brush clean and fresh for longer.
