Using this knowledge, the products are expertly designed and manufactured in Sri Lanka and Egypt. We ensure that local farmers and production workers have a happy place to work and are treated fairly with wages and benefits such as medical insurance, higher hourly rates than normal rates.

LoofCo coconuts are not harvested in this way and we are registered with the Vegan Society. The loofah plant is a vigorous growing plant from the cucumber family that is rich in sustainable fibres yet soft and flexible. When ripe, the interior of the loofah fruit develops a network of fibers that are perfect for cleaning and exfoliating when dried. Our loofahs are harvested, peeled, deseeded, dried, cut into lengths, and hand-processed in Egypt. This processing is a natural tradition passed down through generations. Coir Fiber is the naturally bacteria-resistant, fibrous material found between the hard, internal shell and the outer brown husk. LoofCo uses coir fiber, which is a byproduct of coconut feed and oil production that would otherwise be burned. We twist coir fiber around a 100% recyclable, galvanized, rustproof metal core and add a metal hanging loop for easy handling and draining. Coir fiber stays stiff when wet, holding liquids well, and adds extra scrubbing power to the coconut husk.
