Reusable Paper Towels
Isn’t it just a kitchen towel?
Unlike dish towels, our zero waste paper towels are all natural, antibacterial (so they don’t get that mildew smell) and even compostable! They’re also wayyy more absorbent than average towels which tend to just move the mess around. Would you reach for a kitchen towel to clean an oil spill? Probably not, because you’d have to throw it straight in the laundry! With reusable paper towels, you can get down and dirty like a paper towel, then just rinse out the mess and hang to dry!
What makes it antibacterial?
Bacteria thrives in damp environments. So unlike dish towels, wash cloths or sponges that tend to stay damp for hours, our eco friendly paper towels dry so quickly they don't allow time for bacteria to breed (especially when hung on the Papaya hook!). This means no more mildewy dishcloth smell! Plus, the ultra absorbent material doesn’t just move the mess around. It actually absorbs all the icky bacteria, germs and pathogens from your surface and transfers them to the waste water when cleaned.

What are they made of?
Our sustainable paper towels are made from a combination of two natural materials: 70% cellulose and 30% cotton - both of which are renewable resources! This also makes them 100% compostable and biodegradable, so you can throw them in your compost bin at the end of their lifecycle and start a new one guilt free :)
How long does one sheet last?
One washable sheet replaces 17 ROLLS of regular paper towels, and at the end of its lifecycle, it’s 100% compostable! Most people like to compost and start a new one after 2-3 months of average wear and tear, but it can actually last up to 9 months depending on use.
3 ways to wash your paper towels :)
For regular, everyday use, a good old fashioned hand-wash with soap and water does the trick. For a deeper clean, either throw them in your washing machine and air dry. Or, place them on the top rack of the dishwasher during a cycle. Washable paper towels have never been so easy!
Can I use them with cleaning products?
Yes! Your paper towels can be used with water alone, but are also compatible with any cleaning product or spray you normally use. After you're finished with them, give them a quick rinse, wring out the water and hang back up to dry!
