Toss them in your home or industrial compost — they return to the earth, not the landfill.

Everything breaks down naturally over time, leaving no microplastics or lasting waste behind.

100% Plant-Based

Made entirely from natural loofah plant fiber — no synthetic ingredients, just pure plant power.

Why Scrub & Throw

Loofah solves a problem every household still has: keep using a sponge that's gone sour, or throw plastic into a landfill every week. It's a gourd — you grow it, dry it, cut it, and it scrubs harder than foam. When it's done, it goes back into the ground. No microplastics, no guilt, no ceremony.

We're the team now carrying that idea forward — a small family-run operation in Florida. We earned the USDA Certified Biobased status because "eco-friendly" is a word anyone can print on a box, and we wanted proof instead.

Three to five days of regular kitchen use, which is roughly when any sponge stops being sanitary. Ours is cheap enough and compostable enough that swapping it doesn't feel wasteful.

We ship via standard carrier, with most orders processed within 1–2 business days. Right now we ship within the US only.

It's a federal program that requires third-party lab testing of carbon content. Our loofah tested at 98% biobased and our packaging at 100%. It's verified, not self-declared.

Free on orders over $35. Below that, shipping is calculated at checkout based on your order and location.
