Casa Agave™ sustainable dish brush helps you replace plastic dish brushes in the kitchen!

This replacement head is made of white teakwood and stiff agave fiber (vegan) plant bristles. It is the replacement head for our Casa Agave™ Long Handle Dish Brush.

Replaces: plastic handled dish brushes. Can be used to wash general dishes as well as to loosen stuck on food. 

Longevity: Each brush head can be used for 1-3 months, if not longer. Make sure to not submerge or soak the wooden parts in water. Hang to dry or place in a dry spot after using it.

If you find your brush head is not staying dry, dip the bristles in vinegar occasionally to help kill bacteria. 

Continue using this brush until the bristles no longer work or the brush head falls apart, then compost, bury in garden, or dispose in a green waste bin.

Stop using the brush and replace it if you see any mold growth.

Storage and Care: To reduce cracking, keep the wood parts dry and do not soak or submerge them in water. Cracking is normal for uncoated brushes if you tend to get the wooden parts very wet. You can oil your brushes with walnut or mineral oil to reduce the potential of cracking if you regularly submerge your dish brushes in water. 

Replacing the brush head: The first time, it is a little stiff to bend the wires and you may need to use a pair of pliers to loosen it. (use caution). The subsequent times, you can use strong fingers to squeeze the wires together, loosen the metal grip, and pop off the brush head. Just slide a new brush head on and replace the metal grip that holds it tight. 

End of life: Once worn out, the wood and agave parts can be composted or buried in the garden. 

Why it matters: Plastic bristle brushes shed tiny pieces of plastic called micro plastics. 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! 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: These replacement heads are made of white teakwood. White Teakwood is very fast-growing (similar to bamboo) and even considered a weed in some countries because it grows so fast.

Agave Fiber: Casa Agave™ agave fiber bristles are grown, harvested, sun-dried and processed in Mexico using traditional techniques to ensure a high quality and strong natural fiber.
