The world consumes 3.6 billion toothbrushes every year, and most of these toothbrushes cannot be recycled, ending up in landfills and oceans. The Humble Co. has taken up the fight against this massive and unnecessary use of plastics. Their best selling product, a bamboo based toothbrush, can biodegrade when disposed of correctly! When the bristles get worn out, simply take a pair of pliers, remove the bristles from the end of the handle, and dispose of the bristles in the trash. Then, you can either reuse the handle, or throw it in the compost bin, where it will biodegrade within 6 months!
The Humble Co’s entire collection of products utilize similar sustainable materials, from bamboo, to biodegradable cotton, to plant based plastics. Plus, they utilize plastic-free packaging whenever possible, making toothbrush boxes out of recycled paper, and saying no to plastic sleeves and unnecessary plastic add-ons.
In addition to their use of eco-materials, The Humble Co. is FDA approved, meaning that it’s safe for you and your loved ones to use. Plus, all Humble. Co products are Vegan, and Cruelty Free, so you can use their products with the peace of mind that no animals were harmed in the process of making them!
The Humble Co. also manages initiatives to create even more good across the globe. A portion of their profits support The Humble Smile Foundation, a coalition of dental professionals and academics committed to providing education and resources to communities where kids are lacking proper oral hygiene. From product donations, to clinical oral procedures, to education and nutrition care, The Humble Smile foundation allows kids to stay in school, stay healthy, and share oral hygiene practices with their families and communities.

As a member of the grass family, bamboo is one of the fastest growing plants on earth. It requires no irrigation, pesticides or fertilizers to grow, and can be harvested within 3-5 years, as compared to approximately 30+ years for traditional hardwoods. Bamboo is extremely adaptable and produces more oxygen per acre than large tree species, while using a fraction of the water to grow. Its durable and lightweight qualities make bamboo a great alternative for hard wood products!
