There’s plenty of floss in the sea.
We’re not here to add ours

Join us on our mission to toss the floss.

Shop products

Every piece of dental floss ever used still exists in the world today.

So where is it now?

The ugly truth is that most floss ends up in landfill — that’s the best case scenario. When landfill is the best option, you know you’ve got a big problem.

More likely though, it finds its way into our water supplies and eventually the ocean, where it threatens and destroys precious marine life.

Even the small bits can be swallowed by sea creatures, or tangled up in coral causing irreversible damage to our marine ecosystems. Please, think of the turtles.

Trigger warning

The yearly wrap-up didn’t prepare us for this.

Every year in the US, 42 million rolls of dental floss are sold. That’s enough to wrap around the Earth more than 120 times.

There was something fishy about the sea.

By 2050, it’s predicted there will be more plastic in the ocean than fish.

The planet can’t afford a field day.

The ADA recommends 18 inches of floss per use. That’s nearly two football fields of floss, per person per year.

Real ways we’re reducing our impact

Did you know aluminium is infinitely recyclable? That’s why we’re infinitely proud to use sustainable aluminium for our Flaus Electric Flosser handle. It’s not only durable but makes it effectively reusable, so you can use your Flaus for a lifetime.

Each Flaus Head is fitted with high-performing "glide floss" and can reduce the average amount of floss per use by up to 90%. They’re also made from recyclable plastic, so you can drop them straight into your home recycling bin when you’re done.

Our packaging is fully recyclable. It's custom-designed by sustainability experts and made entirely of paperboard — not a hint of plastic in sight.

The bag you'll receive your Flaus order in is fully-compostable and made from sustainably-sourced plants. That means you can chuck it in with your food scraps and garden waste — even worms love Flaus.

We're also working to reduce our carbon footprint by minimizing the frequency of shipments and using non-rush shipping. It does mean your delivery will take a little longer but, on average, it'll have a smaller footprint than if you drove to the store or received it express. The planet will thank you for your patience!

The search continues...

We are on the hunt for planet-friendly and mouth-friendly floss that’s effective, non-toxic and can break down in home composting systems.

The sad truth

There isn't a sustainable, non-toxic floss out there that we’re currently comfortable using.

The ones that are compostable shred and tear easily when used (ughh). The ones that perform well and are most common are made of harmful chemicals. They also don't break down in the environment or your body — so please, don’t swallow.

If the answer isn’t out there, we’ll create it.

We are hard at work to find or develop a strong and sustainable alternative to PFAS floss that performs just as well. Stay tuned.

Switch to Flaus. Save 6000+ inches. Impressive by anyone’s standards.

Let’s take it slow

According to an MIT study, online shopping is more sustainable than buying from a brick and mortar store as long as it isn’t rush-shipped. We are battling this by shipping Flaus products using existing postal routes and non-rush shipping. It may take a bit longer, but on average, will have a smaller carbon footprint than driving to the store or two-day shipping. The planet appreciates your patience.

In partnership with our friends at PlasticBank, we pledge to prevent 100 plastic bottles from reaching the ocean for every Flaus sold. To date, we’re just shy of 400,000 — that's almost half a million bottles we’ve kept out of our precious marine ecosystems. Even fish love Flaus!

By becoming a Flauser, you help prevent plastic bottles from reaching the ocean. For every Flaus sold, we pledge to prevent 100 plastic bottles from reaching the ocean through our partnership with PlasticBank. So far, we have prevented nearly 400,000 plastic bottles from polluting our oceans and killing cute sea animals - go us!
