Green Oil Massive-Brush

Plastic vs Plant and Wood

What happens to your brush at the end of it's life. Can it be recycled? Usually not. Do the bristles clog up with grime? Yes if made of plastic. The Massive-Brush is different.

The Green Oil Massive-Brush is Eco Friendly

The Massive-Brush is built to last. The bristles used are strong and durable, designed to last a long time, yet plant based and natural. Tampico is a Mexican plant, it is grown and harvested sustainably.

The handle was made from sustainably sourced wood. Beech wood specifically, from and FSC certified supplier. The finished product is not yet FSC certified, but we will renew our FSC liscence and get certification in the near future - the Beech Wood used is 100% sustainably sourced.

The Massive Brush is fossil fuel free! No plastics are used to manufacture it. Even the handle uses linceed (flax) oil instead of varnish. The bristles are plant based, so when there is wear and tear, little pieces of plastic are not going into the environment which don't biodegrade. Any bristle waste will break down safely in the environment.

Even the print on the brush is biodegradable, so theoretically if your brush did ever wear out, you could put it in your compost bin! It is durable though, so a well kept brush should not be heading to the compost bin any time soon. The Massive-Brush is designed to last more than a decade. Some wear will occur, but built-in obsolescence is not something we do at Green Oil. Massive-Brush is designed to last over a decade.

There are two versions of the Massive Brush. Massive-Brush 1.0, and Massive-Brush SLR. The SLR has a metal badge and upcycled leather strap on it.


We recommend drying out your brush indoors, or in the sun after use to keep it in good condition. Hair conditioner can be used to make the bristles last even longer, wash it like Boris Johnson would his hair.
