These toothbrushes are made from bamboo. 

Each brush has a bamboo handle that's a nice shape, and feels comfortable in the hand.  They have been manufactured from bamboo, since it is the world's fastest growing natural renewable resource.  Bamboo also has anti-microbial, anti-fungal and anti-bacterial qualities making it perfect for an item that gets wet and needs to dry out between uses.  The charcoal coloured medium soft bristles are made from nylon - still a plastic, but there aren't many natural resources that can used in the manufacture of toothbrushes that work without damaging the teeth.  At least only a tiny part of each brush is nylon, making these brushes far more eco-friendly than traditional plastic handled tooth brushes.   They are cruelty-free and vegan friendly.

Each tooth brush is packaged in a recyclable cardboard box.
