Metal Safety Razor

Colour: Rose Gold
  • The Bambaw classic safety razor is a great alternative to plastic razors that need to be replaced regularly. Billions of plastic razors and cartridges are thrown away every year. They cannot be recycled, as the metal is embedded in plastic. So, all this plastic is burned or ends up in nature. Safety razors require only the easily recyclable single blade to be replaced.

    Metal safety razors were widely used before the mass production of disposable razors began. We have forgotten about the traditional safety razor but still today, a double edge razor is the best alternative to cartridge razors. It gives a close shave and has a stylish vintage look!

    A useless marketing battle has led cartridge razors to embed 5 blades. That many blades irritate the skin and favours ingrown hair. All you need is one razor sharp blade to achieve that perfect shave.

    Safety razors use one single blade made from stainless steel, which is easily recyclable. How often the blades need to be replaced depends on shave frequency and hair type, this can vary from a few weeks to months. Double edge razor blades are economical and can be bought in most supermarkets or online. We recommend that you use the Bambaw razor blades for the Bambaw safety razors.

    This razor is made exclusively from high-quality metal, which does not rust. It has stainless-steel parts and a head made of a zinc-alloy to give it the perfect weight balance. The rifles on the handles provide a tight grip, making it ideal for shaving the face and the body.

    The safety razor is also available with stand.

Over het merk

Bambaw

In 2015, twin brothers Max and Augustin were shocked by the scope of plastic pollution. They asked themselves, how to live their lives and create as little waste as possible, while empowering others to do the same. Their conclusion was simple: Offering alternatives to wasteful single-use products to tackle pollution at its source.

Bambaw is determined to have a carbon neutral supply chain. To achieve this, they calculate the total environmental impact of their supply chain. Together with the Carbon Trust, they map down the journey of every product from production till the arrival at the customer. The shipping method, the travelled kilometres and weight are monitored to give an accurate picture of the emissions. Bambaw has chosen to offset their impact on the climate by supporting an environmental project in Malawi.

Malawi is one of the poorest countries in the world where most of the population uses biomass (wood, charcoal, manure or crop residues) for their cooking. Unfortunately, burning these resources has a noticeable impact on the environment and releases greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Bambaw supports a climate project that introduces highly efficient ceramic cookstoves to the people. The ceramic stoves help the population reduce the consumption of biomass to half of the current consumption.
