SUSTAINABILITY FEATURES
SUSTAINABILITY SCORE
| Sustainability | Score | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Non-Toxic Materials | 10/10 | Made from 100% recycled components of the coconut tree, guaranteeing a natural, non-toxic, and chemical-free product. |
| Lifetime Durability | 9/10 | Coconut fiber is naturally tough and moisture-resistant. This broom is built as a permanent tool to withstand heavy outdoor use for many years. |
| Recyclability | 10/10 | The entire broom is made of natural fiber and wood (if applicable) and is completely biodegradable at the end of its lifespan. |
| Reduced Waste | 10/10 | Acts as a 2-in-1 tool (rake/broom) and replaces numerous plastic and synthetic outdoor tools, providing maximum waste reduction. |
| Overall Sustainability | 9.9/10 | A near-perfect score for utilizing recycled natural materials, being 100% biodegradable, and maximizing multi-functional use. |
LIFETIME PLASTIC AVOIDED
SWITCHING SAVINGS/COSTS
| The multi-functional coconut broom is a smart long-term investment that provides the most cost-effective solution, saving consumers approximately $125.00 USD over a 50-year period by eliminating the need to purchase two separate, short-lived plastic tools (a rake and a broom). |
CHEMICALS AVOIDED
| Choosing the 100% natural and recycled coconut fiber broom ensures zero contact with petrochemicals, directly avoiding the synthetic plastics, low-grade dyes, and microplastic shedding associated with conventional plastic yard tools. |
Risk Assessment Comparison
| Coconut Broom: Product Benefits | Conventional Plastic Rake/Broom Drawbacks |
|---|---|
| Superior Health & Safety. | Hidden Health Risks. |
| Made from 100% natural fiber (recycled coconut), eliminating toxic petrochemicals, synthetic glues, and microplastic shedding. | Made from petroleum-based plastics that can degrade, snap easily, and introduce synthetic waste into the garden ecosystem. |
| Guaranteed Lifetime Durability. | Short Lifespan & High Waste. |
| The natural coconut fiber is tough and built to last, providing a single, permanent, multi-functional tool for decades. | Prone to bristle warping, snapping, and structural failure within a few seasons, requiring frequent, unnecessary replacement. |
| Best Long-Term Value | False Economy. |
| A 2-in-1 tool (rake/broom) that saves money by eliminating the need to buy two separate single-function plastic tools. | The low initial price hides the compounding cost of having to replace the tool every year or two due to plastic degradation. |
| Zero-Waste Commitment. | Significant Environmental Impact. |
| Completely biodegradable at the end of its life, returning harmlessly to the earth. | Contributes significant volumes of non-biodegradable plastic waste that will pollute landfills for hundreds of years. |
| Effortless Cleaning. | Maintenance Headaches. |
| Naturally effective on wet or dry debris, requiring no specialized cleaning and resisting mildew better than synthetic alternatives. | Poorly suited for wet debris, often retaining water and becoming heavy, making cleanup slow and difficult. |
