Our new sustainable swap helps you replace plastic dish brushes in the kitchen! This removable-head dish brush has a white teakwood handle and brush head, with stiff agave fibers (vegan) plant bristles. It is held together with silver metal wire, and includes a small wire loop at the end for hanging dry.

Sustainability: For the wood handle, we do not use the species Teak that is endangered, we use a different species called White Teakwood that is very fast-growing (similar to bamboo) and even considered a weed in some countries because it grows so fast.

Longevity: Each brush head can be used for 1-6 months. Do not leave any of the wood parts soaking in water, the wood will absorb water and it will cause the wood to swell and crack, or the metal pieces to come out. Hang to dry or place in a dry spot after using it. If you find your brush head is not staying dry, dip it in vinegar occasionally to help kill bacteria. The white teakwood is naturally antibacterial but the vinegar will help too. The handle should last for a couple years with normal usage. Don't apply undue pressure on the handle or it will break.

Replacing the brush head: Replacement heads can be found here. The first time, it is a little stiff to bend the wires and you may need to use a pair of pliers to loosen it. (use caution). The subsequent times, you can use strong fingers to squeeze the wires together, loosen the metal grip, and pop off the brush head. Just slide a new brush head on and replace the metal grip that holds it tight. 

End of life: Once worn out, the wood and agave parts can be composted or buried in the garden, the silver metal parts can be recycled. Don't apply undue pressure on the handle or it will break.
