I was visiting my sister a few weeks ago and we got to talking about recycling and what can and cannot be recycled. The conversation was happening while trying to get the young ones ready for bed (brush your teeth and put on your PJ's) and she turned and said "what about toothbrushes" Can I put them in the recycle bin? I did not know the answer. But a little googling later and I did find some interesting information.
Radius Toothbrush "our cellulose handle is processed from sustainable yield forests into 100% renewable resource plastic." There is a lot of information on their website on each of the individual products.
Recycline This company makes more than toothbrushes, and they use post consumer yogurt containers for the handles. They also have a built in recycling program for their products to make it easy for us.

Howdy Island Girl Salvage,
Thank you for mentioning our toothbrushes in your post.
The particular Radius brush you mention is our Original brush. It is our most famous and one we have been producing for at least 22 years. The cellulose handle is only the beginning. It has a wide head for easily reaching top and bottom teeth including gums and it also has the most comfortable grip handle! Yes, no skinny stick handles here!
Not only does the brush last longer than the average brush once you are finished with it you can use it for cleaning jewelry, shoes or the grout between bathroom tiles!
Our Source brush handles are made from 100% recycled wood fiber and plastic from Nebraska corn maize.
Again thanks so much for the blog mention we are always interested in what people have to say about our products.
Happy Blogging!
Genie :-)
