How Bamboo Toothbrushes are Made?
Our bamboo toothbrush was born in the beautiful city of Tonggu, Jiangxi Province. Most wild bamboos grow very fast in mountains and summits, where sunlight and rain provide an ideal environment for organic growth, free of chemicals and pesticides. The following is an introduction to the manufacturing process of bamboo toothbrushes.

#1 How the bamboo for our toothbrush is harvested
In this handmade process, every step of the way, local farmers have incredible bamboo skills:
Bamboo is cut to fixed lengths - 120cm / 160cm / 200cm
Divide the cane into pieces
Smooth surface
Bamboo high-temperature carbonization to remove impurities
Evaporated sugar
The bamboo gets a little dark
Drying
#2 Shape the bamboo brush handle
The next step is the handling facility where our toothbrush begins to take shape. The workers all have specific tasks, either cutting the bamboo or polishing the bamboo. Often women are responsible for more detailed tasks. Quality inspection is a visual inspection based on sampling:
Cut out the appropriate length of bamboo toothbrush
Put into the machine to complete the side shape first, then the front and back
Polishing
Punch holes in the handle
#3 Tufted and carved bamboo toothbrush
This is where our bamboo toothbrush journey begins:
Tufted bristles (soft or medium).
This pressure- and glue-free process guarantees the sustainability of our products as it enables the subsequent separation of materials for recycling.
