Loofah Cleaning Sponge

LoofCo cleaning sponges are handmade in Egypt from layers of the loofah plant, a biodegradable alternative to plastic cleaning sponges. This loofah sponge is stitched together for extra cleaning power. The loofah feels good in the hand and when immersed in water it swells into a soft, flexible, yet robust sponge that does not scratch. It is ideal for cleaning surfaces, baths, sinks, tiles and taps, in short: the perfect sponge to keep your bathroom clean. With normal use the sponge will last for months and when worn out it can be composted. Each sponge has a handy loop for hanging.

Loofah is a renewable resource that absorbs CO2 as it grows. The loofah plant is a vigorously growing plant from the cucumber family that is rich in sustainable fibers yet soft and flexible. When ripe, the inside of the loofah fruit develops a network of fibers that are perfect for cleaning and exfoliating when dried. The loofahs are harvested, peeled, deseeded, dried, cut into lengths and processed by hand in Egypt. This method of processing is a natural tradition that has been passed down through many generations.

Instructions for use
Rinse the sponge thoroughly before first use. Use the sponge with warm water and detergent, as you would a regular cleaning sponge. The sponge is abrasive when dry, but when immersed in water it swells into a soft, flexible sponge. To maintain the loofah, squeeze out excess water and hang the sponge by the cotton loop to air dry. Machine wash the sponge occasionally or hand wash as desired.
