Know before you buy
The Arenga bristles are soft and best suited for sweeping leaves, dust, and light dirt from porches and decks. They are not designed for heavy-duty construction debris or large, wet piles of garden waste.
The broom features a built-in hanging loop, which is the best way to store it. Hanging the broom prevents the bristles from bending or deforming over time, ensuring they maintain their shape and effectiveness.
While designed for outdoor use, the soft bristles are safe for indoor tile floors. However, because the bristles are natural fibers, they may shed slightly during the initial uses.
To keep the wood in top condition, avoid leaving the broom exposed to harsh weather for extended periods. You can occasionally apply a light coat of wood oil to the handle to nourish the birch and prevent it from drying out.
Yes, the broom is crafted from sustainable, natural materials. The Arenga palm bark bristles are fully biodegradable, and the handle is made from responsibly sourced, oil-treated birch wood.
