Description

RICINE wooden toothbrush: a sustainable and effective option for optimal brushing

The RICINE wooden toothbrush is an eco-friendly and high-performance alternative to traditional toothbrushes. Designed to meet the expectations of environmentally conscious consumers, it stands out for its use of natural and sustainable materials. The handle is made from FSC-certified Swiss beech wood, guaranteeing responsible forest management. The bristles are made from castor oil, offering a vegan and nature-friendly option. What's more, this toothbrush is not tested on animals, in line with the ethical values of committed users.

The medium-soft bristles of the RICINE toothbrush are ideal for those who prefer a firmer brushing action while ensuring gentle care for teeth and gums. Thanks to their rounded tips, the bristles clean effectively without damaging enamel or irritating gums. This optimizes the removal of plaque and food debris while preserving oral health. The absence of mineral oil in the bristle design reinforces their eco-friendly nature and helps reduce the environmental footprint associated with traditional toothbrushes.

A meticulous finish for prolonged and pleasant use

The RICINE toothbrush has a layer of vegetable wax that provides a smooth and comfortable finish. This wax not only protects the handle from moisture, extending its life, but also prevents mouth and gum irritation. The combination of these features ensures a pleasant and safe brushing experience every day. In addition, the design is enhanced by three creative engravings, adding a personalized aesthetic touch to each toothbrush.

To maximize the longevity and effectiveness of the RICINE wooden toothbrush, it is advisable to dry the handle after each use and avoid leaving it in a humid environment. Occasional maintenance with a vegetable oil, such as sunflower or olive oil, is recommended to maintain the flexibility of the wood and provide additional protection against moisture.

An ethical and eco-friendly choice to reduce plastic waste

A commitment to sustainability is at the heart of the RICINE wooden toothbrush design. By choosing this toothbrush, users are actively contributing to the reduction of plastic waste. The plastic-free packaging reflects this environmental commitment, while ensuring optimal product protection.

After two to three months of use, it is recommended that the toothbrush be replaced to maintain optimal oral hygiene. The brush head can be disposed of with household waste, while the fully biodegradable handle can be composted or reused according to your preferences. Manufactured in Switzerland, the RICINE wooden toothbrush combines quality, durability, and respect for the environment, offering a responsible and effective solution for daily oral hygiene.

Frequent questions

What is a RICINE toothbrush?
Liebwerk’s RICINE toothbrush features semi-soft nylon bristles made from castor oil, a mineral-oil-free bioplastic. It is suitable for people without sensitive gums or enamel who prefer a firmer brushing action or a more durable nylon alternative.

What materials are used in the RICINE toothbrush?
RICINE toothbrush bristles are made from castor oil–based nylon (PA 10.10), a mineral-oil-free bioplastic.
Liebwerk toothbrush handles are made from FSC-certified Swiss beechwood. Known for its strength, wear resistance and flexibility, beech wood is an optimal material for toothbrushes.

Which Liebwerk toothbrush is right for me?

  • SOFT model – for sensitive teeth and gums: Soft bristles guarantee gentle yet effective brushing and are ideal for people with sensitive teeth and gums.
  • RICINE model – for normal teeth and gums: Semi-soft castor-oil nylon bristles are ideal for those who prefer a firmer brushing action and a more durable nylon.

How do you keep the handle in good condition for as long as possible?
To prolong the life of your toothbrush’s wooden handle and preserve its quality, follow these tips:

  • Apply vegetable oil regularly: Once a week, apply a small amount of vegetable oil (such as olive oil or coconut oil) to the wooden handle. This protects the wood from moisture and creates a protective film.
  • Keep dry: After each use, rinse the toothbrush thoroughly and shake off excess water. Store it upright so it can air-dry completely between uses. Avoid soaking it in water or leaving it in a damp environment.
  • Replace if necessary: Despite proper care, wooden handles naturally wear over time. If you notice cracks, splinters or major changes in texture, replace the toothbrush to maintain hygiene and avoid injury.

How do I dispose of a Liebwerk toothbrush at the end of its life?
To properly dispose of your Liebwerk toothbrush:

  • Separate the head: Cut or break off the toothbrush head and dispose of it in the trash. Nylon and bioplastic bristles, as well as the metal hooks, are not compostable.
  • Discard the handle: The wooden handle is fully biodegradable and can be composted, where it contributes to soil enrichment and renewable energy production.
  • Reuse creatively: The wooden handle can also be reused as a plant marker, label or for other creative projects.

Is Liebwerk toothbrush packaging environmentally friendly?
Liebwerk toothbrushes are packaged in a cardboard box. The packaging contains no plastic and is 100% recyclable.
