BAMBOO
BAMBOO
Bamboo is one of the fastest-growing plants on Earth, with some species growing up to 35 inches per day. It’s a highly renewable resource that requires minimal water and no pesticides. Bamboo absorbs carbon dioxide and releases oxygen more efficiently than many trees, contributing to the reduction of greenhouse gases. Its rapid growth rate allows for sustainable harvesting without harming ecosystems.

We use bamboo in products such as toothbrushes, combs, and packaging due to its strength and biodegradability. Bamboo offers a natural and durable alternative to plastic.

CORN STARCH
CORN STARCH
Corn starch, or polylactic acid (PLA), is derived from corn, a renewable resource. It is biodegradable and compostable under industrial composting conditions, which helps reduce long-term environmental impact. PLA reduces reliance on fossil fuels and lowers carbon emissions compared to petroleum-based plastics. It also requires less energy to produce, further contributing to its environmental benefits.

WHEAT STRAW
WHEAT STRAW
Wheat straw is an agricultural by product from wheat cultivation, which would otherwise be considered waste. Using wheat straw helps reduce agricultural waste and supports a circular economy. Incorporating wheat straw into our products reduces the need for virgin materials and minimises waste. It is also biodegradable, which helps to reduce environmental impact at the end of its lifecycle.

CORK
CORK
Cork is harvested from the bark of cork oak trees, which can be stripped every 9-12 years without harming the tree. This process ensures that cork is a renewable resource. Cork harvesting promotes forest health by encouraging new growth and supporting biodiversity. Additionally, cork is biodegradable and recyclable, making it an environmentally friendly choice .

COTTON
COTTON
Cotton is a natural fibre that is biodegradable and renewable. When sourced responsibly, it supports sustainable agricultural practices and can be grown with less water and fewer chemicals. Organic cotton, in particular, reduces the environmental footprint by avoiding synthetic pesticides and fertilisers. Cotton’s biodegradability ensures that products made from it decompose naturally at the end of their lifecycle.
