Did you know? Classic, synthetic sponges emit micro-plastics as you use them? Plus, studies have shown a synthetic kitchen sponge harbors more bacteria than typically found in a toilet.
As well as this, the standard polyurethane foam sponges are supposed to be changed up to once a week. That's a lot of plastic sponges heading straight to landfill. To prevent the build up of nasty bacteria, it's recommended to use bleach for a daily intensive clean. Both of which are not very eco friendly.
Enter the UK made compostable sponge. Completely plastic-free, easy to clean, reusable, durable and highly absorbent. Everything the traditional sponge isn't.
At the end of life, instead of it sitting in landfill for hundreds of years to come, these can be cut up and added to your home compost.
Not only that, they're made entirely from natural, renewable resources - not plastic.
