Yourstraw Bamboo Straw

Yourstraw Bamboo Straws

Yourstraw was started to replace toxic plastic straws with reusable, biodegradable bamboo ones.  We were prepping fish for dinner one evening and discovered a plastic straw, plastic spoon and chip packets in the fish’s stomach.  Needless to say, that ruined our appetite!  But it also got us thinking about society’ self-defeating love affair with plastic.  Bamboo is a safe, natural alternative that doesn’t endanger marine life or pollute the environment. 

Unlike the production processes of metal, glass and paper straws ours are 100% hand-made and chemical-free.  Zero electricity.  Zero emissions.  In fact, bamboo produces 35% more oxygen than trees so our production processes actually help to repair the environment.  

Our commitment to sustainability is central to our business model and operations.  Our bamboo straws are hand-crafted, zero emissions, all natural.  Free from chemical fertilizers, pesticides, bleaches, detergents or sanitizers.  Bamboo straws are the ONLY compostable reusable straw on the market.  In fact, bamboo produces 35% more oxygen than trees and actually helps to repair the environment.

You can put through the dishwasher, use straw cleaner to ensure no debris builds up in the straws and rinse them occasionally in a vinegar solution between uses.
