The thing about sponges
You know the one. Green on top, yellow underneath.
1
It's plastic. The foam is polyurethane, the scourer is nylon or polyester. Synthetic from top to bottom.
2
It sheds as it wears. Heat and friction are exactly the conditions that release plastic particles from household items.
3
It's an easy one to change. You can't avoid every source of microplastics. The sponge in your hand every day? That one's simple.
Microplastics research is ongoing; we keep our claims in line with current scientific understanding.
Make The Switch
Simple swap, big difference
Same job at the sink. Completely different story underneath.
It scrubs because of what it is, not what's been added to it.
Loofah is a plant (a cousin of the cucumber, believe it or not). Dried out, it becomes naturally abrasive with an open weave that's tough on burnt-on pans and gentle on non-stick. We pair it with a plant cellulose sponge that holds 15 times its weight in water.
Tough where it countsCuts through grease and baked-on food without scratching.
Dishwasher-safePop it in a cycle to freshen up. That's why each one lasts months, not weeks.
Nothing syntheticNo polyurethane, no polyester, no nylon. Nowhere.

"I buy a box of 12 every year. Gentle on mugs, the rougher side does the job with pans. I'd never go back to plastic sponges."
