It grows quickly and re-grows quickly after harvesting, up to three feet in a day. It’s actually a type of grass that has natural antibacterial qualities, dries out quickly and has a tensile strength that rivals steel. The VirtueBrush Bamboo Toothbrush is a Sustainable Alternative to plastic toothbrushes that are hard to recycle and often end up in landfill, our waterways and oceans where they break down into smaller and smaller pieces of plastic causing harm to the environment. Moso Bamboo is a great replacement for plastic and is recommended by the Zero Waste Lifestyle Movement. Activated Charcoal is also very on trend at the moment due to its antibacterial and teeth whitening qualities.
