The swab comes with a biodegradable corn-based carry case, so you can swab on-the-go and for easy storage.
LastSwab features premium materials and a clever design. Like your typical cotton swab, it is two-sided. Surprisingly, the swab doesn’t feature cotton at all, instead it uses a soft-feel tip made of TPE (Thermoplastic elastomers).
LastSwab chose TPE (instead of silicone), because the melting temperature between the rod and the TPE is closer and for that reason the bonding is much better.
The bonding is crucial, because without good bonding the tips will end up detaching from the rod ending up in places you don’t want it.
The swab ends are TPE, the rod is plastic, and the case is PLA which is made of corn and is biodegradable.
When creating a product to last for thousands of uses, durability is key. LastSwab replaces thousands of single-use cotton swabs. Even if LastSwab does end up in the ocean, it’s damage is less than 0.1% of its single-use counterparts, simply because there will be much less of them.
Available in a Basic version also.
