According to the dentist`s suggestion, we should change the new toothbrush less than three months. Actually. Everyone will change the the new toothbrush fourth times every year. Given that there are about 7.5 billion people on the earth, human beings will use totally 30 billion toothbrushes each year.

Each toothbrush weight is between 20g and 30g based on the different material and size. There are about 7500 tons waste toothbrushes each year. However, lots toothbrushes on the market are made of plastics material which is difficult to degrade, leading to the serious environmental pollution.

Faced with the serious environmental pollution, many toothbrush manufacturers begin to explore and research the degradable material. The toothbrush materials gradually transition from non-degradable to partially degradable. Because wood is the rapidly growing renewable resources that can be biodegradable, toothbrush manufacturers begin to use wooden handle instead of plastic handle. Due to the current lack of the fully Biodegradable Filament in the market, the toothbrush industry is eagerly awaiting for the biodegradable filament.

In order to solve the difficulty that filament can not achieve full bio-degradation, Tai Hing officially launches full-biodegradable filament- BioFil. BioFil includes the certain proportion of renewable bio-based resources and it can be degraded into water, carbon dioxide, compost and other natural harmless substances, which achieves real full bio-degradation.

Fully Biodegradable

BioFil fully biodegradable Brush Filament not only tested for the biodegradability, proving that the degradation rate of the product reached over 90% after 145 days (higher than the standard 180 days), but also undergone biological disintegration test, confirming that the brush filaments can disintegrate to the specified size within 14 weeks.

BioFil has been demonstrated that it is harmless without heavy metal through the chemical composition test, not releasing the harmful substances during the use process and after degradation. According to the plant ecotoxicity test, plants are grown in the degradable soil containing BioFil, and its generation rate and the growth can reach the level of conventional soil. According to the Australian standard AS4736, There is no obvious difference in the growth of earthworms in the degradable soil containing BioFil and conventional soil.

Excellent Performance

Conventional polylactic acid material is hard, brittle and transparent at the room temperature, and its filament product is easy to be broken and to bent. Its poor product performance of bending strength, impact resistance and flexibility immensely limits its application in brush industry. With better impact resistance and flexibility, Tai Hing`s BioFil can solve the difficulty of brittleness, and it is suitable for toothbrush, the degradable Hairbrush and makeup brush and false eyelashes products ect.

Wooden toothbrush with BioFil filament is the fully biodegradable toothbrush product. The whole toothbrush can be degraded naturally, not polluting environment and not harming aquatic organisms. BioFil filament has moderate softness and hardness to remove the dental plaque and bacteria effectively, and filament will not hurt the teeth and gums.
