Like Us – Bamboo comes in many shades of perfection.

When you decide to switch from plastICK, to our soft plant based bristle – other eco choices will follow – it’s only natural.

WHAT MAKES US UNIQUE?

OUR BRISTLE:  Made entirely in the USA, and comprised of American grown Castor Bean Oil (not seed or stem)  A FULL 62% is pure Natural plant.
With only 38%  BIO BASED nylon – to promote optimal softness, and absorbency –  so necessary in a daily use bristle, and adding the strength to adhere the handle to the bristle.  “It actually feels like it’s hugging your teeth!”  Everything about our Brush makes sense.

Why?

OUR HANDLE: MOSO is the only Bamboo we allow.  Not part of the Chinese Panda diet, it is too large for them to eat, so we selected this species. (They prefer to snack on shoots and sprouts.)  Highly renewable, this resource grows up to 3 feet a day and we are currently using less than 2% of our Mountain. With the KUMAR  family and the BWB team ever present during the process, we are confident that proper employee practices are being implemented regularly. Bamboo brushes have been created for hundreds of years in Asia, and only now are we realizing the true uniqueness of this fascinating tradition.  FYI: The original bamboo toothbrushes were bristled with boar hair – we’ve come a long way!

The Natural Properties of Bamboo include these three:

Anti-fungal

Anti-microbial

Antibacterial

So what better material for our toothbrush?  It’s just time to return to the past, before plastICK was ever even thought of.

Try it and see.

With the dozens of bamboo toothbrushes available, why did we choose BRUSH WITH BAMBOO?

VINOD KUMAR.  He and his son Ro,  created the plant based bristle in 2015.   After connecting with them,  we visited the west coast to meet the family.
