Regular kitchen sponges were proven to represent the biggest reservoirs of active bacteria in the whole house. A dishwashing sponge is 200,000 times dirtier than a toilet seat. Researchers found 362 different species of bacteria, located in sponge’s porous structure, with bacterial density of 45 billion per cm2.
Get rid of the nasty kitchen sponges and replace them with a better alternative!
Spongik is zero plastic 3-in-1 dishwashing set. It’s smart feature notifies when it is time to replace the sponge, avoiding the bacteria to reach incubation stage in the sponge.
Designed to reduce all the unnecessary dishwashing plastic items, Spongik is an environmentally friendly and a zero-waste alternative to conventional polyurethane kitchen sponges and plastic dishwashing liquid bottles. The Spongik set includes a versatile sponge dryer and cellulose sponges infused with chemical-free dishwashing soap. All made from natural and biodegradable materials.
Smart Sponge is infused with chemical-free soap and is designed to last 20 washes. Which is approximately 2-3 weeks depending on the amount of dishwashing. The soap reduces the breeding of bacteria in the sponge and sanitizes it between washes.
Natural soap is tough on grease yet gentle on hands, and the waste water is harmless for the planet and safe for plants, marine and aquatic life. No need for one-time-use plastic bottles with dishwashing liquid.
2-in-1 Smart Sponge is perfect for travelling & camping.
Ergonomic water drop shape perfectly fits in the hand, while the pointy edge is designed to clean hard-to-reach corners of glasses and bowls. The sponge tackles the toughest jobs, yet it is gentle enough not to scratch the dishes and the non-stick layer of the pans and pots.
All Spongik sponges and dryers are made out of natural materials that have unique properties. Cellulose sponge is naturally compressed and expands in contact with water. And Diatomaceous dryer instantly absorbs moisture.
Spongik set is 100% biodegradable. Basic Sponge is made out of 100% cellulose – a natural and sustainable material that biodegrades without any harm to the environment. Pro Sponge is made out of 100% natural cellulose with the scouring pad that is made out of hemp and cotton blend. Smart Sponge is made out of the same materials as Pro Sponge (cellulose + hemp) and it is infused with natural dishwashing soap.
Spongik set includes a dryer, which is made out of diatomite material that instantly absorbs moisture from its surface. Diatomaceous earth is a naturally occurring mineral that is made of microscopic skeletons of algae that have fossilized over millions of years. Diatomaceous earth has versatile benefits and is a widely used in household and hygiene products including toothpastes, skin scrubs, dietary supplements, pet nutrition products, etc.
When the wet sponge is placed on the Spongik dryer, the moisture and bacteria get pulled out from the sponge. Diatomaceous material attracts and binds bacteria, causing it to dry out and die. The remains of moisture rapidly evaporate by being exposed to greater surface area through millions of pores. Quick elimination of moisture helps the dishwashing sponge to dry faster and reduce breeding of the bacteria.
Neutral colors of the dryer complement the kitchen interior and add a designer’s touch. Choose among fire shades for warm woody interior, water blues for a fresh look, air for bright and modern kitchen environment, and earthy grey for any kitchen interior.
Spongik dryer is versatile in its design and could be placed in various ways around the kitchen sink: standing upright, laying horizontally, or attached to the wall.
To help minimize the space in the small kitchens, Spongik could easily fit between the sink and the wall.
