TePe GOOD toothbrush

TePe Oral Hygiene Products launches a toothbrush made from renewable sources – the first step towards increased sustainability in the company's entire range of oral health products.

The TePe GOOD toothbrush is first out in a new product range made of bio-based plastic – without compromising on quality, design or hygiene. TePe’s Product Development Manager Patrik Werius explains the benefits of the material:

“A bio-based plastic is made from a renewable resource, in this case, sugar cane, which absorbs carbon dioxide from the air as it grows, thus helping to prevent global warming.”

The production of the GOOD toothbrush takes place at TePe’s manufacturing plant in Malmö, Sweden, by use of green energy, partly generated by the company’s own rooftop solar power facility.

“Our long-term goal is to make all of our products more sustainable. It’s a long journey, but we’re making good progress,” Patrik Werius concludes.
