The Washing Up Pad from Loofco provides a great natural alternative to plastic washing up sponges. Made from a plant called a loofah, it is 100% plastic free, meaning that you can wash your dishes safe in the knowledge that there are no microplastics being washed down the drain. The Washing Up Pad fits neatly into the hand, and when immersed in water it swells up to become a soft, spongy and flexible pad that is soft enough for non-stick pans and supple enough to fit into mugs. It also features a handy hanging string which is made from natural, compostable Egyptian Cotton. The durable pad will last for months and when it is worn out it can be composted at home.
How to use
Use in warm water with washing up liquid, like a washing up sponge. Soak and remove baked on food first. To keep the loofah fresh between uses, squeeze out excess water, shake out any food particles and hang to dry from the cotton string loop. Occasionally wash in the washing machine or by hand if desired.
