They also cause the death of a lot of animals that ingest them after mistakenly exchanging them for food. A plastic cottonbud takes between 400-1000years to break down into smaller pieces without ever disappearing completely.

On the other hand, bamboo takes considerably less time to biodegrade both in soil and in water, leaving no trace and doing no damage after it has been used.

Phyllostachys Pubescens, more commonly known as Moso bamboo. This type of bamboo is the most widely used bamboo because of its unique ability to grow very fast. As a result, much less land needs to be reclaimed to meet the growing demands for this material because of its rate of regeneration and also because it naturally grows very densely.

All our products are designed in Malta (Europe), and the final manufacturing is done depending on the product. Shampoos and Tooth powder are manufactured in Europe, Bamboo products are made in China. Our primary concern when choosing our manufacturers is their closeness to the raw materials needed for the products.
