    The Orange Pop-up Sponge is another great zero waste swap for your kitchen. Made of 100% vegetable cellulose (wood pulp), these kitchen sponges feel and function like traditional sponges but are completely plant-based, plastic-free and compostable.


    Features

    • DURABLE: safe to use on non-stick cookware, copper and stainless steel, glassware and much more
    • Natural cellulose sponge creates generous foams and lather, so it is powerful enough to cut through greases and grime but will NOT SCRATCH
    • 100% COMPOSTABLE AND BIODEGRADABLE because they are made from 100% biodegradable plant-based cellulose that is safe for your home and our planet
    • Vegetable cellulose fiber is naturally DURABLE AND BREATHABLE, allowing the sponge to air dry quickly without collecting nasty smells

       

      Care Tips

      • Ideally dry completely between uses
      • Boil in water to kill bacteria
      • Avoid soaking in water
      • Place away from high heat or flames

       

      Directions

      • Soak sponge in water and wait for it to expand
      • Use as regular normal sponge
      • When smelly, boil sponge in water for a few minutes and air dry

       

      Disposal

      • Cut in small pieces, then place in the green bin to compost or directly compost in the backyard
      • Loofah can also be used like coconut fibre in the garden, excellent at water retention, growing seedlings, creating a potting mix, pest resistance, and use as bedding in worm bins

       

      Why Pop-up Sponges?

      Why are cellulose sponges better than plastic ones?

      1. Kitchen sponges are exposed to hundreds of different types of bacteria and experts recommend changing them once a week, which is problematic because plastic kitchen sponges take thousands of years to break down. it's recommended to use cellulose sponges which can be sanitized/disinfected in hot water (not recommended for plastic sponges)
      2. Traditional sponges can shed microplastics which can make their way into our water cycle and end up in our rivers, oceans and drinking water
