This product is produced through fair trade with Bangladesh. We use items on a daily basis that unknowingly have a negative impact on the environment and the human body in our daily lives. This time, we will focus on dishwashing sponges, shopping bags, plastic bottles, straws, etc., which are attracting attention as they affect marine pollution. The occurrence of microplastics is due to synthetic fibers, which are petroleum-derived fibers Currently, the main dishwashing sponges in Japan are made of synthetic fibers. In other words, every time you wash, you are flushing microplastics through the kitchen into rivers and seas. The only way to eliminate this phenomenon is to use materials made of natural fibers. Among them, jute was used as the most suitable material. The main origin of jute is Bangladesh. Jute is a type of hemp that absorbs more carbon dioxide than ordinary wood, and is an eco-friendly material that returns to the soil without generating harmful substances when disposed of. In addition, the materials used in the edging are upcycled sarees used in Indian and Bangladeshi national costumes, and we are committed to reusing resources. This TAWASHi is handmade by Jute Works, a fair trade production organization certified by the WFTO (World Fair Trade Federation). By conducting fair trade with Bangladesh, we not only consider the environment but also realize fair trade. By simply making the items you use in your daily routine a little more ethical, you can change from an act that has a negative impact on the environment and the human body to a daily life that can contribute to the global environment, the human body, and labor, and contribute to the realization of a sustainable society.
