Plastic Free LoofCo is inspired by cleaning methods & designs that have been tried and tested over generations, before plastic took over! Replaces mass-produced plastic washing-up brushes, sponges, pads and shower pads that will not biodegrade.
The LoofCo Washing-Up Brush is hand-made in Sri Lanka from coconut coir fibre twisted around a galvanised steel core with a handy metal hanging loop. Each easy to grip hand-held brush measures 10cm x 7cm excluding loop. Coir is the fibrous material found beneath the matured brown coconut husk. Its unique properties make it ideal for making brushes.
To Use: Rinse thoroughly before first use. May appear abrasive when dry state, but when immersed in warm water, bristles will soften. Use with warm water, washing-up liquid or LoofCo Washing-Up Soap. Strong enough for scrubbing pans, small enough to reach into cups. Effective for cleaning crockery, cutlery, pans and woks. After use, rinse and shake out excess water and any food particles and hang to dry from the metal loop. Occasionally soak in hot water with washing-up liquid and air dry to freshen brush. Long lasting in normal use and when worn out the fibres are biodegradable and core can be recycled.
