Materials & Plant-Based Fibers
Materials and Plant-Based Fibers This page explains what Plushwipes wipe material is made from, what the available testing shows, and how to talk about materials without vague claims. Plushwipes uses a cellulose-based nonwoven material designed for softness, strength during use, and dispersal after flushing when used as directed. SGS fiber analysis for the submitted material reported 82.8 percent wood pulp by weight and 17.2 percent lyocell. What that means in plain English Wood pulp and lyocell are cellulose-based fibers. They help create a soft, flexible sheet that can feel substantial in use while still being engineered for breakup in water-based agitation testing. What we do not overclaim We do not describe Plushwipes as universally septic safe, compostable, plastic-free, clog-proof, or 100 percent plant-based unless a specific test supports that exact statement. Flushable wipe performance depends on both the material and responsible use. Why material choice matters Many wipes are designed mainly for strength and convenience. Flushable wipes require a more careful balance: they must stay together while you use them, then disperse after flushing under the right conditions. Material structure, grammage, moisture, perforation, and how many wipes are flushed at once all matter. Use guidance Flush only one Plushwipes wipe at a time in a properly maintained toilet. Do not flush baby wipes, disinfecting wipes, makeup wipes, paper towels, or wipes that are not labeled for flushing.
