Naturally Sustainable:
The NATIVES CO. Natural Sea Sponges are wild-harvested using sustainable practices and maintaining industry regulations. The Grass Sea Sponge grows in tropical seas and is sustainably harvested from the sea bed at shallow depths. Natural Sea Sponges have the amazing ability to constantly renew themselves; wild-harvest divers can take part of a sponge without damaging the whole and it quickly grows more of itself to replace the part that was taken. In fact, harvesting sea sponges actually helps them to live longer, encouraging regeneration and self-renewal. It makes sea sponges a renewable natural resource – and a great choice for the environment.
Due to Australia’s strict quarantine laws importation of raw and untreated natural sea sponges is prohibited. Our natural grass sea sponges have been cleaned and treated prior to importation. This in no way limits or changes the effectiveness of the sea sponge, but it does protect our precious Australian eco-system.
Sea sponges are produced in nature. They are delicate and may contain inherent natural variations and flaws that are not considered faults. To protect the durability and prolong the life of your sea sponge we recommend you care for your natural sea sponge using the information provided in our Ritual section. The durability of your sea sponge will naturally degrade with use. Once your sea sponge is too fragile for use in the shower it can be returned to the earth in your compost or garden waste.
