People have used natural sea sponges for thousands of years due to their unique qualities and durability. All our sea sponges are 100% sustainably sourced. Divers respect the environment by following ethical and sustainable methods of harvesting. When they cut the sponges from their root, they ensure that a part of them remains intact at the seafloor so that a new sponge can be generated. Additionally, the divers squeeze the sponges during harvesting, causing the seeds to drop. This method allows new sponges to grow in the next months and years.
Directions for use and care:
Use with water only as sea sponges are stiff and hard when dry. After use, carefully rinse the sponge to remove all soap residue or detergents which may cause the silk sponge to become weak. Do not use hot water and let the sponge dry naturally until the next use.
After every five uses, place the sponge in a baking soda solution with water for two-three minutes and rinse it well to remove soda residue.
This process revitalises the sea sponge while any remaining dirt is fully rinsed away from the sponge.
Caution: All our natural sea sponges are thoroughly cleaned of shells and sand during and after harvesting, however, we recommend that you check the sponge before first use.
