The Humble Co. Floss Picks
These floss picks feature a plant-based handle and shred-resistant floss thread, designed to help clean between teeth and along the gumline in a more eco-conscious way.
Ingredients / Materials:
Handle: ~53% plant-based materials (corn-starch derived) + polypropylene (PP) for durability.
Thread: Polyethylene floss.
Flavour variant: Natural mint aroma (Mentha piperita) in the mint version.
Pack size: 50-count standard pack (also larger counts available).
What I like:
The handle uses a significant amount of plant-based material (~53%), reducing reliance on fossil-based plastics.
The floss picks are vegan, cruelty-free, and free of PFAS/PTFE/BPA, according to the brand's claims.
The thread is described as extra-strong, shred-resistant, and offering solid performance between teeth.
Flavour choice (mint, charcoal) gives a refreshing experience and options for preference.
Better packaging footprint: handles made partly from cornstarch and recyclable packaging, aligning with more sustainable oral care choices.
Things to keep in mind:
Though the handle is partly plant-based, it still includes polypropylene (PP), and the thread is conventional polyethylene — so these picks are not fully plastic-free.
Contains mint flavour/aroma and possibly tea tree or other essential flavour oils in some variants — if you’re sensitive to strong flavours/essential oils, you may find them more intense.
