The DEBETOOL sponge utilizes oxygen-bleached white cellulose, which offers a clean aesthetic and high absorbency for household chores. Measuring approximately 11cm by 7cm, it fits comfortably in the hand and is designed to provide a reliable grip for scrubbing. The unit uses a thermal bonding process to attach the coconut coir scrubbing side, which helps the layers stay together during standard dishwashing cycles.
The white cellulose is derived from wood pulp and is designed to dry faster than traditional foam, which helps prevent the buildup of bacteria that cause odors. Tests show that the coconut fiber side is a "soft-abrasive," meaning it is suitable for cleaning cast iron and non-stick pans without the risk of deep scratches. When the sponge is completely dry, it becomes quite rigid, but it quickly regains its flexibility and utility once immersed in water.
If you prefer a sponge with a sisal-based scrubber instead of coconut coir, the Isshah plant-based sponges offer an alternative texture for your cleaning routine.
