Non Plastic Beach Kids Bamboo Toothbrush | Green

This bamboo toothbrush is your best choice for planet-friendly daily kids dental care. This eco-friendly toothbrush has a British-designed handle made from biodegradable bamboo, with a coloured base and is a bit smaller than the adult version, with soft bristles that are kind to young teeth and gums. There are around 3.5 billion toothbrushes thrown away across the world every year and the vast majority of them are plastic toothbrushes, which is bad news for ocean life and the planet in general. Dentists recommend toothbrush replacement every 3 months so this sustainable toothbrush is an effective eco-friendly solution. You can put the handles in with green garden waste, into wood recycling or you can even reuse them as a natural plant marker, for example. The matching colour BPA-free nylon bristles can be extracted for recycling at your local centres (check guidelines). The makers settled for this vegan option for cleaning teeth and while it does not fully biodegrade, it’s the more effective cleaning solution. You are still buying a product with 95%+ less plastic than any mainstream toothbrush. You are choosing wisely with bamboo, which is an amazing eco resource. It grows incredibly quickly and uses a fraction of the land and water needed for other materials like timber. It’s a “cut-and-come-again” crop that reshoots after harvesting year after year. The bamboo toothbrush is packed in a fully compostable or recyclable plastic-free cardboard box with no plastic windows or coatings and like the rest of the product it’s completely vegan-friendly.
