Pot Scrubbing Brush
The Casa Agave™ Pot Scrubber
The Casa Agave™ pot scrubber helps you replace plastic pot scrubbers in the kitchen! This heavy-duty scrub brush has a sturdy Moso Bamboo handle, with stiff plant fiber bristles.
Replaces: plastic scrub brushes. Designed for stuck-on food and heavy stains, including for cast iron pots. Can be used on non-stick pans, just be more gentle with it.
Storage and Care: To reduce cracking, keep the wood parts dry and do not soak or submerge them in water. Cracking is normal for wooden brushes if you tend to get the wooden parts very wet. You can oil your brushes to reduce the potential of cracking if you regularly submerge your dish brushes in water.
Place in a completely dry spot: Hang to dry or place in a completely dry spot after using it. Do not rest the brush on top of your solid dish soap between dishwashing sessions, the natural bristles will wick up excess water and cause the handle to crack.
End of life: Once worn out, the wood and agave fiber parts can be composted or buried in the garden.
Why it matters: Plastic bristle scrub brushes shed tiny pieces of plastic called microplastics. Unfortunately, these tiny plastic pieces are not filtered out fully by sewage treatment. So when you hear about the "Great Pacific Garbage Patch" the majority of this garbage patch in the Pacific Ocean is actually tiny pieces of plastic that aren't even visible to the human eye.
These tiny plastic pieces are being eaten by marine animals and ending up in the food chain, being consumed by humans in sushi restaurants around the globe! And if you're vegan, they are ending up in our tap water too. Help us turn off the plastic tap and choose a more sustainable option for humans and the planet.
Sustainability: Moso bamboo, known as the giant bamboo or timber bamboo, has been used for centuries to fashion buildings, flooring, and culinary tools. The young shoots are often prepared into Asian dishes. The plant fiber bristles are made from agave fiber mixed with palmyra fiber. Lightly coated with a non-toxic wood coating to reduce cracking and splitting. FSC certified by TÜV SÜD Czech, Prague.
Agave Fiber: Casa Agave™ agave fiber bristles are grown, harvested, sun-dried, and processed in Mexico using traditional techniques to ensure high quality and strong natural fiber.
