Every reusable head that replaces a bag of single use picks is one less thing headed for landfill. Here's the short, honestly sourced version of what switching actually saves.
Nylon floss never breaks down, so every strand ever binned is still out there. A Flossei™ head is reusable, so there is no loose string to cut, use or throw away in the first place.
45 cm is the ADA's "about 18 inches" per session, times 365 daily sessions, converted. Olympic pool taken as 50 metres. The 60% figure is our own estimate from the two to three uses per head stated on our FAQ, not an audited figure.
Flossing daily with disposable picks means throwing out 365 of them a year. A Flossei™ head typically lasts two to three uses; take the middle of that and a year of daily flossing needs around 146 heads instead of 365 picks. That's roughly 60% fewer plastic pieces in the bin.
Our own estimate, built from the usage range on our FAQ, not an independently audited figure.Traditional floss and floss picks are made of nylon. Most kerbside recycling won't take it: the wax coating gums up the machinery, and the strands are too small to sort. So it goes to landfill. Nylon isn't biodegradable, so once it's there, it stays there.
Source: citizensustainable.com, "Is Dental Floss Recyclable?"Every kit ships with 60 heads, and each one typically lasts two to three flosses. That's months of daily flossing before a refill even crosses your mind.
A 50 pack of replacement heads covers up to 150 flosses, while a same size pack of single use picks covers 50.
Because each head is reused instead of binned after one pass, you refill roughly a third as often. Lighter on the planet, and on how often you're paying for a refill.
Buy the head that lasts, not the pick that doesn't. One Flossei™ kit replaces months of picks.
