Did you know that traditional dental floss is actually made of plastic? If everyone in just the US flossed as recommended by the American Dental Association, the used floss would circle the planet more than 1,200 times. And the plastic containers? We'd fill a landfill the size of a football field six stories high (the equivalent of 2,184,000,000 canisters). No, thank you.
(Thank you to Viajar & Amar for doing that math so we didn't have to.)
This refillable silk dental floss is our go-to solution to keep our teeth healthy and bright. The floss itself is silk coated in vegan candelilla wax, and is packaged in stunning glass and stainless steel canisters that can be continually refilled.
This floss has been made even better! This new, stronger version is less likely to break during use.
Pair it with our bamboo toothbrushes and check out our full line of zero waste oral care products for a beautifully sustainable oral care routine.
Size
Each glass canister comes pre-filled with one 33-foot spool of silk and includes a stainless steel cap.
Refill packs include two 33-foot spools, without the canister.
Materials
Our zero waste floss is made with 100% biodegradable silk coated in vegan candelilla wax and organic peppermint essential oil.
Packaging + End of Life
Our Refill zero waste floss is packaged in a 100% recycled cardboard box with a certified compostable bioplastic sleeve.
The box can be curbside recycled or composted, while the sleeve can be industrially composted. If you do not have access to industrial compost, the sleeve should be thrown away.
Our Earth, Starburst, and Seafoam zero waste floss and glass canisters are completely unpackaged.
The floss itself can be composted, either industrially or in your backyard compost, and the canister can be endlessly refilled. If it does come time to retire the canister, the glass body and the stainless steel top can be curbside recycled.
