Orange - NEW Eco Sponge
Meet our upgraded Eco Sponge with a cheerful orange pattern - the sustainable way to clean. With a cloth tag, this zero-waste sponge can be hung up to dry. The citrus-inspired design adds a pop of joy to your kitchen routine.
The white part is spongy and absorbent, made of wood pulp, while the yellow-brown part is scrubby and helps soap become sudsy, made of loofah.
**Compared to a regular eco sponge, this new eco sponge is further compressed, which saves more space and carbon emissions during transit.

CUTTING PLASTIC OUT OF THE KITCHEN
Studies have found that many of our liquid dish soaps contain chemicals that are toxic to our wildlife, especially the aquatic community. Not to mention the plastic and excess water, making the switch to a plant-based bar is both better for our environment and your wallet!
No testing on animals here! We test our products with family and friends only. And sometimes farther in the process, our community gets to sample them before they release.

"From production to packaging, we intentionally explore low-impact, plant-based materials that perform better than plastic. Being makers ourselves, we also work with other makers here in Canada & US to develop zero-waste products
Through trial and error, we establish best practices of using, caring and disposing of the products to share with our community"
