Save money by buying just one sponge a year
Machine washable or dishwasher safe
Dries very quickly = more hygienic
3 kg of waste avoided per household

If we followed the health recommendations, we'd have to change our sponges every week. What do you mean you don't? 99% of French people are like you!

With the INGA sponge, say goodbye to disposable sponges full of germs: a quick run in the washing machine (or dishwasher) and you've got a sponge that's completely clean. And as well as being hygienic, this washable sponge is super efficient and won't scratch. Not bad, eh?

This sponge has 2 different sides and is made in Portugal. One side is made from 100% recyclable polyamide (nylon), the side that scratches without scratching. The other (the green side) is made from 100% recyclable polyester, the side that wipes and absorbs. All on a base of 100% recyclable polyurethane foam.

Your banker will thank you...
4 INGA sponges = 100 disposable sponges

This sponge lasts 1 year. It's made from quality, well-sourced and well-worked materials, resulting in a product that lasts a long time without making ANY CONCESSION on quality. It won't blacken, warp or show any signs of wear. If you put it through the dishwasher several times, it retains its shape and doesn't look damaged.

What's more, this sponge dries more quickly and therefore develops fewer bacteria, so it lasts longer ! Finally, its thickness is an asset, providing a solid grip while ensuring effective cleaning.

With a yellow side made of foamed plastic resin stuffed with chemicals (to give it colour and increase its resistance) and an abrasive green surface made of aluminium and titanium oxide, synthetic sponges are anything but environmentally friendly.

As well as consuming a lot of energy and petroleum fuels during manufacture, it is neither recyclable nor biodegradable, and releases tiny fragments of plastic each time it is used. And yes, the more you scrub, the more you wear out the sponge and the more tiny fragments of plastic come off, contributing to the pollution of water and soil with micro-plastics. You don't have to wait for the sponge to fall apart for this to happen - small grains are already coming off the first time you use it. Fragments that will seep into the soil and then the water. A real disaster!

It really is time to change your cleaning habits and opt for an ecological sponge.

Just like a conventional sponge. Its scrubbing side won't scratch, so you can use it on glass-ceramic hobs or any other fragile surface.

A sponge needs to be treated with a lot of love. We therefore recommend that you use it gently on objects such as knives, graters or sharp objects. Even if you're the chef, we recommend putting it through the washing machine once a week (between 30°C and 60°C, 1200 rpm max for the spin cycle) to keep it really clean. It can also be put in the dishwasher on a standard cycle (as long as you spin it well afterwards).

To preserve the durability and performance of the INGA sponge, avoid using the tumble dryer. It is preferable to leave the sponge to dry in a dryer or on its stand. Also note that there is a risk of discolouration if the detergent used contains bleaching agents (optical brighteners).

100% recyclable polyamide and polyester faces; 100% recyclable polyurethane foam.

INGA is the story of the maniac, the skinflint and the slacker (no, it's not the title of a new Sergio Léone film) who all wanted to consume better and throw away less, but not at any price!

Realising the disasters caused by the manufacture and consumption of household paper (billions of litres of waste, litres of water consumed, CO2 emitted, trees cut down...), the three founders of INGA wanted to offer a sustainable solution.

Sustainable, yes, but not at any price. The maniac wanted it to be as efficient as disposables, the skinflint wanted it to cost less and the lazy person wanted it to be... That it be easy to use.

And so, with INGA, they embarked on a mission to encourage people to switch from disposable to sustainable products that are effective, long-lasting, practical and economical..." .
