A sustainable and biodegradable towel that cleans you and cleans the world

Story

 

 

We are a new ecological movement founded by Marcos, Wiliam, Juan, and Dean. Four travelers that met last year in Mexico and teamed-up to explore the world together, seeking adventure and pure nature.

 
 

 Unfortunately, every time we found a new beautiful place we also found trash. 

 
 

So we decided to start cleaning and formed a community of people like us who also love the planet and care deeply about the environment. 

We want to expand our movement globally in 2020 to organize more cleanups worldwide and tackle the trash problem from all angles. 

That’s why we created a GREAT travel towel to raise money and to replace microfiber towels that suck.  

Our towels absorb 3 times more water, they dry in half the time than Microfiber towels, and they don’t smell.

DID YOU KNOW?

  • Bamboo reduces global warming. A grove of bamboo absorbs 3-4 times more carbon dioxide than an equivalent stand of trees and releases 35% more oxygen. 
  • One acre of bamboo produces oxygen for 24 people to breathe for a year.
  • Bamboo requires 1/3 the amount of water to grow than is necessary for cotton and yields 10 times more fiber. 

 

THREE FACTS ABOUT MICROFIBER TOWELS

  • Microfiber is mainly made of polyester
  • Polyester takes up to 200 years to decompose and comes from petroleum and coal, two non-renewable resources that contribute to greenhouse gas emissions
  • When washed, microfiber releases microplastics that end up in the ocean and kill Plankton. Plankton is the main food source of the marine ecosystem and its population has dropped by 40% since 1950
