Agave plants are typical semi-desert shrubs of the subtropics. Their uses are varied; some species are used to make tequila, while others are used to produce sisal fibers or cords, brushes, or scrubbers. Importantly, agave fibers are a significant alternative to synthetic fibers.

This brush is made from the leaf ribs of the agave tampico plant. Its fibers have specific properties compared to other materials. They are very durable yet have a soft texture. They are also resistant to high temperatures, acids, and alkaline substances.

Did you know that mats, nets, and bags were woven from agave by the ancient Mayans? Now it's time to return to the roots and start using these sustainable alternatives again.

Lontars are large, thorny, dioecious palms reaching heights from 15 to 25 meters. Almost all parts of it are utilized. Wood is used to build houses, canoes, or fences. Leaves serve as roofing materials, and petioles are used to make fibers suitable for brooms, brushes, or scrubbers.
