The straws come in a cotton pouch for all straws and a separate pouch for a single straw. This way, you can keep one straw in a handy place like your car or purse and refuse single-use straws on the go.

“It’s just a straw” – said 8 billion people. Plastic straws are such a problem because of their sheer magnitude. It is estimated that 170 to 390 million straws are used per day in the USA. That is enough to wrap them around the world at least once.
Most plastic straws are disposed of after a single-use. After enjoying your drink with them for a couple of minutes, they end up in landfills or nature for centuries to come.
Refuse single-use straws
The best option is to refuse straws altogether. But not everyone can or wants to give up on straws. Then, a reusable straw is an eco-friendliest alternative. Most are made from bamboo, metal, glass or silicone.
Cheer with reusable straws
Having reusable straws at home will enable you to drink with them sustainably, whenever you feel like it. Keeping them at a handy place, where you can easily reach them at any time like your purse or backpack will empower you to say no to single-use plastics.
BambooEach bamboo straw is made of a natural bamboo stem harvested by local farmers on their properties. The bamboo doesn't come from farm fields but is a non-timber forest product harvested by cutting out invasive bamboo plants on the farmers' properties. This provides extra incomes for farmers who were burning this invasive bamboo before. The bamboo is then sanded to be smooth and splinter-free. Finally, bamboo is boiled and washed. It only takes a couple of hours to produce a Bambaw straw as the bamboo grows so fast. Thanks to its robustness, the bamboo can go into the dishwasher while still biodegradable, making it the perfect component for reusable straws. Pineapple bristlesThe straw brush bristles are made of pineapple leaves which allow the straw brush to be resistant and long-lasting. An excellent example of upcycling as these leaves are usually discarded after the pineapple is used for food. 304 stainless steelThe 304 stainless-steel wire's flexibility enables bending the brush easily in any shape to clean hard to reach areas. It is highly durable and lasts a long time. On top of this, it's a champion of recycling. One of the world's most recycled material, ahead of paper and glass. 60% of the new stainless-steel production comes from recycled material. |
