Loofah Kitchen Sponge (3pc set)

This plant-based sponge is 100% biodegradable and compostable. The loofah side (brown fibre) can be used as a gentle scrub for your non-stick cookware, while the wood pulp cellulose side (white sponge) is suitable for everyday dishes. These sponges don’t collect bad odour and bacteria like other plastic sponges.

Unlike traditional sponges that use glue or latex, these materials are stitched together with thick cotton thread, where the white sponge is tapered to create a stronger seam for some serious scrubbing.

Every sponge is made and sewn with the least amount of chemicals, no plastic and are REACH compliant, an EU "Safety Test" standard.  Packed together in a set of 3 with a jute rope. You can cut and tie the jute rope to the brand tag as a hanging option (see photos).

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Hygiene specialists recommend that you replace your sponges every 1 to 2 months. If you keep it clean, you can reuse a cellulose sponge for up to 6 months. Although with frequent care and rougher use, your sponge may only last about a month. To make them last, rinse sponges thoroughly after each use. Allow them to dry completely open to the air or you may sun them as well. Alternatively, you may soak the sponge in a mixture of one part bleach to nine parts water for two minutes. Wring it out, then air dry. Another way is to soak the sponge in full-strength vinegar for five minutes, then rinse and air dry. Our sponges are dishwasher-friendly, so you can also run sponges through a cycle in the dishwasher on the top rack.
