Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I use The Eco Brush?
Making the swap from plastic toothbrushes to our ECO brush has never been easier. Not only are our toothbrushes great for the environment, but they are also great for your teeth! Bamboo naturally has an antibacterial effect, which is great for the health of our gums and teeth.
Why Bamboo?
Bamboo is a natural material. It’s also eco-friendly and 100% biodegradable! Using Bamboo to create our ECO toothbrush handles helps to reduce environmental pollution and plastic waste in our oceans. It is also one of the fastest growing plants on the planet, so we won’t be running out anytime soon!
Where do you source your bamboo?
We source our bamboo from our close friends in Ningbo, China, and work closely with them to create our products in the most ethical and sustainable way possible. We are always doing our best to make sure we keep our practices sustainable, our products high quality and our values forefront. That’s why also we give 10% of our total profits to The Loyal Workshop; a small ethical leather company who provide employment alternatives to fight human trafficking.
How often should I be changing my toothbrush?
With proper care, your ECO brush will last just as long as a conventional plastic toothbrush. Ideally you should be replacing your ECO brush every three to four months or sooner if the bristles are noticeably frayed.
Are the ECO brushes suitable for children?
We have a special bamboo toothbrush specifically designed for children! The bristles are gentle and kind to small mouths and sensitive gums, while ensuring proper hygiene and sparkly clean teeth!
