Production
Our partner takes the local ridge gourds that for various reasons are not edible and turns them into loofahs by drying them under the sun, peeling them, and cleaning them. Our partner runs a small facility that provides work opportunities to people in the surrounding areas.

Loofah maintenance
It's important to clean your loofah after use. The shower environment which is often humid can result in the growth of bacteria. Here are a few steps you can take to avoid these bacteria:
Let it dry: hang up your loofah to dry after use, ventilate your shower area, and allow enough airflow for the loofah to dry properly.
Replace on time: ideally, when used with care, natural loofah lasts for a long time, but it's recommended to replace it after about 6 months or when it starts smelling or changes color. The loofah can then be fully composted.
