A simple design, yet so incredibly functional. This bamboo soap dish is designed to keep your soap bars elevated and out of water pools to extend their life, while the angled slots allow water to drain away, preventing pools from ever starting. And the little lip on the front helps your soap stay where it should — especially handy for dish soap bars that tend to get quite jostled in use! Plus, the bamboo wood and simple design add a touch of elegance to any sink, tub, or shower.

Care

To prevent mold, mildew, and soap buildup, regularly clean your soap dish by gently scrubbing it with a soft brush or cloth and water and allowing it to fully air dry. Store in a well-ventilated spot so it can dry between uses. Do not soak the soap dish, as the bamboo may warp and crack. Do not put in the dishwasher.

Packaging + End of Life

These bamboo soap dishes will be packaged in a simple paper wrap that can be curbside recycled with paper.

With proper care, this soap dish should last you many years to come. When it does reach the end of its life, it can be backyard composted.

🌎 You care about the planet. So do we.

Look. I get it. It’s HARD to be an EcoWarrior. Someone who cares about the planet and wants the most sustainable products available - from the ingredients to the packaging to the way that product gets to your hands.

It seems like everywhere we turn, someone, somewhere, is greenwashing us.

But our superpower at A Drop in the Ocean is sorting through the BS, calling it out, and making sure our products are the absolute most sustainable and truly zero waste products we can find.

So on top of all the things we mentioned above about what makes our bamboo soap dishes so sustainable, here’s a few other things you should know:

We’re actually practicing what we preach behind the scenes. Each year, we track and record all of our trash, and even wrote a whole blog post on it. The tl;dr version is this: on average, we produce less than 0.5 pounds of trash each month. Everything from the packaging our products come in down to the Sharpie we use to write “Fragile” on your box is zero waste to its core.
We’re an online-only zero waste store - which is highly intentional. It may seem counter-intuitive, but online shopping is actually more sustainable than in-person. I’m a data nerd at heart and I love diving into the research, and there are countless studies that have shown that online shopping is the most sustainable way to get your everyday essentials. Don’t believe me? Check out our whole blog post on the sustainability of online shopping.
We ship ugly boxes. Your order from A Drop in the Ocean is not going to arrive in a pretty, branded box. It’s gonna show up in a reused tea box, or a donated Amazon box, or maybe even an inside-out Girl Scout Cookies box. All of our shipping materials are always 100% plastic-free and reused as much as possible, with curbside-recyclable paper tape and a post-consumer recycled paper shipping label. It won’t be pretty, but it will be zero waste.

Got more questions about our zero waste products or our practices behind the scenes? Just send us an email! I’m always happy to chat all things eco.
