Bamboo Straw

We all know that if we want to use a straw, we need to swap to a reusable one

As well as metal straws, there is another option. Why not try bamboo? 

The benefits of bamboo:

• It is grown where it's meant to grow, so all it needs is rainwater!
  
• It is one of the fastest growing plants in the world
  
• It’s grows back quickly once it has been cropped
  
• It has natural bacteria-fighting capabilities
  

Specification

• Each unique bamboo straw has a smooth interior
  
• Unlike the making of a metal straw, the crafting process of bamboo is chemical-free
  
• Clean them with hot water and dish soap using a straw brush which we recommend you buy too. They are just 50p
  
• Bamboo straws usually lasts from 6 months to a year. With proper care, they can last for several more years
  
• Since bamboo is biodegradable, these straws can be composted in a home composter
  

Size: 18 cm length, 6mm inner diameter. Both sizes are approximate as this is a natural product. We source our bamboo straw from a zero-waste supplier called Plastic Phobia. Their supplier is in Vietnam. They state that the supplier is proud to be creating local jobs, and to be running a sustainable production system. They describe their workers as being like family, and that everyone is happy to help each other. Why not add a fabric or cork storage pouch. A range of metal straws are also available on the website; silver, gold, copper and coloured
