Maker Story
Hi! I’m Wang Xiaopeng. One of the artisans who helped to make the metal dish brush and also the bottle brush. I’m 35 years old and this is my 6th year working here. We like to develop products with the concepts of environmental protection, affordability and good design.
I’m an artisan and I like to express my inner feelings through making good things for the planet. This work makes me happy. I live in Ningbo with my lovely family. This work allows me to provide for my family, which makes me grateful. I hope that you love the dish brush.
The production partners facility is based in Zhejiang province in China.
The minimum wage of this province is 2,100 RMB per month, but the artisans are paid above minimum wage at 2,700 RMB per month.
Makers work 40 hours a week, 5 days a week and are off on all holidays.
The bottle cleaners are shipped via ship to minimise the carbon footprint of the product. We more than offset the emissions by planting a tree for every item we sell.
The product does not have any animal derivatives and no single use plastic waste was produced in the production process.
For the health and safety of the artisans, they are ensured to wear gloves, face masks and hats. Also regular health checks are done at the expense of the factory.
