Naturbrush: Cleaning Teeth and the Planet

The birth of Naturbrush was like one of those little things that you almost accidentally come across but which has a great impact. The amount of waste that we throw into the sea has reached such a level that there are plastic islands crisscrossing the seas. This plastic ends up obstructing the digestive system of many species that are decisive in the planet’s natural balance.
What can we do about this? When you reach thirty and you start being a parent, you ask yourself questions about the world around you, about what kind of world you are going to leave your children. In the face of this, we must inevitably take action. But how? You work the night shift of a medium-sized company and there is not much free time. Nor does a single person have a wide range of action to combat something of such magnitude. At home we separate the waste, we put everything in its corresponding container, but it’s still not enough.
It was in another small gesture that the light bulb was turned on. There, in front of the bathroom mirror, with my (plastic) toothbrush in hand, was when everything started to flow. How many people brush their teeth every day? It is an exercise that is repeated at least three times a day and it is a tool that has to be renewed every three months. How many tons of plastic thrown in the rubbish does that mean?
Remembering a phrase from Galeano, the idea for NaturBrush, the first Spanish brand of biodegradable toothbrushes, arose: “Many small people in small places, doing small things can change the world”.

The result is a light and natural product, a small change in our daily lives that can shape great achievements in the long term. Its manufacture in bamboo does not deforest spaces; in addition, its cultivation contributes to increasing the global forest mass thanks to a fast and vigorous growth. In six weeks the bamboo can reach 30 meters of height, for which a Mediterranean pine would need several decades.
After surpassing diverse filters and obtaining the certifications the biodegradable brushes of Naturbrush are a reality. Ready to end up in the hands of many small people, who in small places can contribute to change the world. Now it’s up to you, if you want to be part of the change and be part of our Naturbrush community, access our website and start taking care of your smile as well as the planet’s.
You will be able to buy in the shop of www.natur-brush.com
