Did you know that most household sponges are made from plastic?  More importantly, they can’t be recycled or composted.  They’re usually only used for a couple of weeks to clean kitchens and appliances before they’re thrown away, where they’ll contribute to plastic pollution for hundreds of years before eventually breaking down into microplastics.
 
What’s more, mass-produced synthetic sponges are all made with petrochemicals, bleach, assorted sulphates and a whole load of nasty chemicals.  Even after you throw your old sponges away, the bacteria-killing triclosan they’re filled with can negatively affect aquatic ecosystems, especially the algae that other creatures depend on.
 
But don’t worry, because these durable, absorbent and compostable cellulose sponges are a great alternative to traditional synthetic sponges.  They’re made from responsibly sourced wood fibres and are more eco-friendly as they go through a less toxic manufacturing process and they are biodegradable too!

They’re really long lasting and super absorbent - each sponge can absorb and retain up to 10 times its own weight in water - so they’ll drink up any spill you throw at them. They’re great on kitchen worktops as well as dishes and ideal for bathroom surfaces too, so they’re absolutely perfect for cleaning all around the house.
 
They can last through many tough cleaning jobs, they’re hygienic, durable, eco friendly, reusable and fully biodegradable. They're made from 100% cellulose (which is natural wood fibre)  and that means these wonderful sponges are 100% plastic-free - no microplastics!
