Why is our Swedish cloth sponge a genius idea?

Did you know the U.S. alone uses over 13 billion pounds of paper towels every year?
It’s time for a smarter, more sustainable solution!

Our Swedish-style dishcloths are:

• Reusable - Each cloth lasts up to 200+ washes (that’s at least six to nine months of use!)
• Eco-Friendly & Biodegradable - Made from 70% cellulose (wood pulp) & 30% cotton, they break down naturally after use.
• Super Absorbent - Holds up to 15 times its weight in water for effortless cleaning.
• Odor-Free & Quick-Drying - Unlike plastic-based sponges that trap bacteria and smell, our dishcloths dry within an hour, staying fresh longer.

Frequently Asked Questions

First use +

When your dishcloth first arrives, it might feel a little stiff and crispy—that’s normal!
That dry texture is its superpower that helps keep bacteria away.
Just run it under water to soften it up; once damp, it absorbs like a sponge and scrubs like a cloth, making cleaning a breeze.
Use it with your favorite cleaning product, or let it work its magic solo!

How to wash? +

Depanding on your use:

• For everyday use: Rinse with soap + water & hang to dry

Most people have found that our clothes last 9-12 months, or about 200 machine washes. When ready to retire your cloth, toss it in the compost or bin - it’s 100% compostable and biodegradable.

What is the best way to dry my dishcloth? +

They’re meant to dry au naturel, NOT in the dryer!
Here are some ways we like to air dry our Coco Cloths:

• Hang it over the tap or sink
• Lay it flat on the counter
• Put it in your dish drying rack
• Use our clip to hang it on your backsplash or fridge

When you’re ready to use it again, just run it under the tap.

Signs it’s time to send your dishtowel to the compost bin +

• It’s not absorbing as much anymore
• Not getting soft under water
• It’s looking extra well-loved (aka a little too worn out).
