What is the importance of bamboo cotton buds?
Did you know that plastic cotton buds are among the top 10 most commonly found plastic products on the beach? They pose a great danger to all animals that come across them in their path. By switching to these eco-friendly cotton buds, you will prevent a lot of animal suffering.
And even if plastic cotton swabs just end up in the rubbish, they cannot be recycled. This natural alternative, on the other hand, can simply be disposed of in the organic waste after use. So by switching to bamboo cotton buds, you avoid unnecessary waste at the same time.
Sustainable and animal-friendly bamboo
Like many of our products, these cotton buds consist largely of bamboo. Bamboo is incredibly sustainable for several reasons. For one, it is the fastest-growing plant in the world. The type we use, moso bamboo, grows up to one metre a day under optimal conditions.
In addition, the origin and cycle of a bamboo plant is also very sustainable. This is because it does not grow from seeds, but from one large root system. By using at least five-year-old bamboo, the root system remains healthy and intact, and new branches constantly grow out.
Most importantly though, we do not pose a threat to pandas. After all, bamboo makes up over 90% of their diet. But fortunately, they prefer to eat the leaves that grow close to the ground. That is why their choice is not moso bamboo. The leaves of this species grow too high.
