FINEMEGURU Bamboo Toothbrush with Boar Bristle (Firm) is an eco-friendly toothbrush made from sustainable materials derived from Japanese bamboo, which is biodegradable and returns to the soil.

It is a biodegradable toothbrush made from biomass pellets created from bamboo powder and bamboo fibers.

In an effort to reduce disposable toothbrushes and promote environmentally friendly manufacturing, a revolutionary toothbrush has been developed that addresses both the plastic waste problem and the issue of abandoned bamboo groves within Japan.

The handle of the toothbrush is made from a blend of polylactic acid resin (biodegradable resin) and bamboo micro-powder, resulting in a product with low combustion calories when incinerated after use, and reduced CO2 emissions compared to conventional resins.

The natural material gives the handle a gentle, familiar feel, making daily brushing a more comfortable and pleasant experience.

A sustainable toothbrush made from plant-based materials that grow within one year.

- The handle is made from a blend of polylactic acid resin (biodegradable resin) and bamboo micro-powder.
- Manufactured carefully in domestic factories using domestically managed bamboo.
- Easy to grip and gentle to use, thanks to plant-derived materials.
- Available in four different bristle types to suit preferences and needs.
- Packaging has been changed from OPP bags to a bag made entirely from "bamboo paper," which uses 100% Japanese bamboo.
- Due to the natural materials, the product comes with a 2-year usage guarantee from the date of manufacture.
- A portion of sales is donated to green fund initiatives.

◆ Reason for the usage guarantee period

Since the materials are natural raw ingredients, they begin to decompose over time. Therefore, a usage period of 2 years from the time of resin molding is set, with the expiration date printed on the handle and packaging.

Additionally, safety standards are tested according to the food safety criteria established by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare.

◆ Four types of brush materials

- Boar Hair

Natural and well-suited for interdental cleaning, with self-wear properties that prevent damage to enamel and gums as the bristles gradually shorten. Recommended for those who prioritize eco-friendliness and natural materials.

- Hanama Hair (Horsehair)

Moderately soft, with bristles that wear down with use, making it less likely to damage enamel or gums. Each bristle has flexibility, providing a gentle brushing experience.

- Castor Resin Bristles

Made from 100% plant-derived resin obtained from castor seed. Castor oil has been used historically in cosmetics and soap. The bristles are clear, flexible, and comparable in feel to petroleum-based nylon, maintaining consistent performance.

- Ultra-fine Bristles

Made from saturated polyester, offering excellent flexibility, resilience, and durability. The ultra-fine bristles easily reach between teeth and into periodontal pockets, providing high cleaning efficiency. The familiar, gentle material offers a refreshing sense of cleanliness.

＜FINEME＞
A sustainable toothbrush with minimal environmental impact

Every year, approximately 8 million tons of plastic waste are dumped into the world's oceans, causing significant environmental pollution.

Fish that ingest marine debris can introduce these plastics into the human body through the food chain, posing health risks.

What can we do to curb the wave of environmental destruction and protect the future of our planet? We want to create products that cherish Earth's resources while promoting health, happiness, and a rich life for people.

Since its founding, Fine Corporation has kept this philosophy in mind, continuously researching and experimenting.

As a result, we successfully developed a handle material made from a blend of polylactic acid resin and bamboo micro-powder. This led to the creation of the "Bamboo Toothbrush."

Utilizing biomass (plant resources), this toothbrush produces less CO2 during disposal due to its low combustion caloric value, and it does not contribute to increased greenhouse gases.

Furthermore, because it is made from plant-based materials that grow within one year, it helps conserve precious resources. Over time, users may develop a sense of gratitude for nature, and the product's gentle feel can foster a kind and soothing mood.

If a single toothbrush can contribute to protecting the Earth, that would be a wonderful thing.
