The brush covers all your dishwashing needs with a coconut scourer. It's designed to clean all your kitchenware without scratching. All materials are either biodegradable or easily recyclable.

The Coconut Scourer
Natural materials: The dish brush is composed of a bamboo handle, coconut bristles and stainless steel.

Doing the dishes is a necessity for almost everyone. We do it every day to clean pots, pans, cutlery, plates and anything else we use in the kitchen. It is such a common chore that it is easy to forget about its environmental impact.
The Problem With Common Dish Brushes
Conventional dish brushes are usually made of plastic and take centuries to break down. Even the sponges contain plastic and are neither recyclable nor biodegradable.
When doing the dishes, the sponges and brushes leak microplastic into the sewage system and even your kitchen utensils. This leads to environmental damage, including plastic pollution. It also leads to the human ingestion of synthetic particles which are leaked into the kitchen utensils.
Zero Waste Dishwashing
Fortunately, there are eco-friendly dish brush sets to do your chores without waste. You can change the brush for a natural one, without nylon bristles. For the sponge, you can opt for a natural sponge or a wooden pan cleaner.
What This Dish Brush Is Made Of (And Why It Matters)
Coconut Fibre: The natural fibre is extracted from the coconut shell's outer husk or cocoon. Composed of 45% wood, this makes the bristles solid and resistant. Besides, the slimness of the fibre assures a scratch-free washing experience.
304 Stainless Steel: Stainless steel is corrosion proof. Additionally, it is one of the world's most recycled materials, ahead of paper and glass. 60% of the new stainless-steel production comes from recycled material.
Bamboo: Bamboo is a fast-growing weed which is ideal to create the biodegradable handle of the dish brush.
Are coconut bristle dish brushes effective at removing grease and stuck-on food?
Yes. The coconut bristles on this plastic-free dish brush tackle hard-to-remove residue like baked-on food, grease, and stuck-on stains. The high-density bristles and bent round-shaped head reach corners, jar bases, and pan edges that sponges often miss, making it one of the most effective eco-friendly dish brushes available.
How often should you replace a reusable dish brush?
A Bambaw reusable dish brush typically lasts 2 to 4 months, depending on how often you use it and how well you care for it. Replace the brush once the coconut bristles start to look worn or frayed, at that point, they no longer clean effectively.
What is the best way to clean and maintain a bamboo dish brush?
Rinse the coconut bristles thoroughly after every wash and shake out excess water. For a deeper clean, soak the brush for 15 minutes in a solution of warm water and vinegar or mild soap. Avoid putting it in the dishwasher or submerging it in boiling water, as heat can damage the bamboo handle.
Can I use a bamboo brush on cast iron, stainless steel, or non-stick pans? Will it scratch?
Yes! This plastic-free dish brush works well on most kitchen surfaces, including stainless steel, cast iron, ceramic, and glass. It handles stuck-on food and grease with ease. For non-stick pans, use a gentler sponge or soft brush, as the coconut bristles can scratch the non-stick coating.
How should you store a reusable dish brush to keep it lasting longer?
Store the brush with the bristles facing down or hang it on a hook, so water drains away from the bamboo handle and coconut bristles. Avoid leaving it in a wet sink or pooled water for long periods, this can cause the bamboo to absorb moisture and eventually mould.
Is this bamboo dish brush genuinely plastic-free?
Yes. The brush is made entirely from natural materials: a bamboo handle, coconut bristles, and a 304 stainless-steel core. There is no plastic in the product, making it a true zero-waste swap for conventional plastic dish brushes and sponges.
What materials is this plastic-free dish brush made from?
It's composed of three natural materials:
- Bamboo handle: biodegradable, sturdy, and naturally fast-growing
- Coconut bristles: extracted from the coconut shell's outer husk, composed of 45% wood for firmness and durability
- 304 stainless steel: corrosion-proof and made from 60% recycled material
Why should you switch from a plastic dish brush to a reusable one?
A reusable dish brush replaces single-use plastic brushes and sponges that shed microplastics into your sink, your dishes, and eventually the environment. It's a simple zero-waste swap that keeps plastic out of your kitchen and out of landfill.
