How to use
Use in warm water with washing-up liquid, such as a washing-up sponge.
To keep the loofah fresh between use, squeeze out the excess water, shake out any food particles and hang the pad to dry on the cotton loop.
Wash occasionally in the washing machine or by hand to use more often.
About Loofah
LoofCo products are inspired by cleaning methods that have been tried and tested for generations. With the help of this knowledge, the products are expertly designed and made in Sri Lanka and Egypt. We ensure that local farmers and production workers have a nice workplace and are treated fairly with wages and benefits, such as medical insurance, a higher hourly wage than the normal rates. There are no children employed. LoofCo products are vegan. Some coconut producers use monkeys to help with their harvest. LoofCo coconuts are not harvested this way and we are registered with the Vegan Society.
Loofah plant is a vigorously growing plant from the cucumber family that is rich in sustainable fibers and yet soft and flexible. When the fruit is ripe, the inside of the loofah fruit develops a network of fibers that are perfect for cleaning and exfoliating when they are dried. Our loofahs are harvested, peeled, seeds removed and then dried, cut into lengths and processed by hand in Egypt. This method of processing is a natural tradition that has been passed on through many generations.
Coconut Fiber is the naturally bacterial-resistant, fibrous material that is found between the hard, internal shell and the outer brown coconut bark. LoofCo uses coconut fibers that are a by-product of coconut feed and oil production and that would otherwise be incinerated. We twist coconut fiber around a 100% recyclable, galvanized stainless steel core and add a metal hanging loop for easy use and draining. Coconut fiber stays stiff when wet, holds liquids well and gives the coconut bark extra scrubbing power.
