There are two sides to every story. The new Loofah Sponge from Twist is no exception. On one side you’ll find our absorbent sponge material. On the other, a natural loofah scrubbing layer for those times when you need a little edge to get the job done. Use your Loofah Sponge for everything from spills to regular kitchen cleanup.
Making a sponge is a very challenging process, and one that only a handful of producers undertake. Cellulose sheets (100% tree fiber) are mixed with cotton and heated into a liquid that is poured into large molds. Adjusting the salt particles added to the mix creates those familiar holes. The mix is then dried as a giant block, sliced into various shapes, rinsed sparkling clean, combined with an antibacterial agent, and finally packaged. This process can lead to a lot of waste. Billions of sponges are produced every year. An industry that big has an impact on the world around it.
At TWIST, they take special care to make sure 99.97% of all their waste is reused in production. And, their cellulose is sourced from renewable tree farms. Twist are committed to continually improving their production process to minimize their effect on the environment.
