This LoofCo mini washing-up pad is a flexible single layer of loofah plant. This sustainable fibre provides an eco-friendly to plastic scourers, sponges and brushes. The versatile design lets you give a thorough scrubbing to pots, pans, woks, cutlery and more. This vegan-friendly loofah is eco-friendly too, using biodegradable materials that will provide months of efficient cleaning. Once the loofah has worn away, it can easily be recycled.

All LoofCo products are made with sustainably-sourced plant fibres from the loofah plant - hence the name! These products are made using traditional methods passed down through generations and hand-crafted by skilled workers in Sri Lanka and Egypt who are able to work in an inclusive environment whilst being paid fairly and receiving medical benefits. LoofCo is a strictly Vegan company and uses only human workers, meaning that the company is registered with the Vegan Society. All elements of LoofCo's products are either recyclable or compostable, from the natural fibres, to the packaging.

This Loofah has been flattened for transport to save space and may appear abrasive in this state. When immersed in water it will swell up and become a spongy, flexible yet robust pad. Use in warm water and washing up liquid or washing-up soap. After use rinse well, squeeze out excess water, shake out any food particles and hang to dry from a cotton loop.

Dimensions: (l) 10 x (w) 8.5 cm

Loofah plants are grown and harvested in Egypt by skilled farmers. The plants are similar to cucumbers and grow rapidly on vines, and are then peeled, deseeded and dried, then cut and processed - all by hand. This generations-old tradition creates a product that is perfect for cleaning household goods due to its robust nature, whilst also being spongy and gentle enough to be used on skin during a self-care routine. These plants are durable and can last for months, unlike many products made of disposable plastic and foam.
