Make small changes by using these toothbrushes made from recycled materials

Created for you with the environment in mind, Jordan’s Green Clean initiative believes sustainability is key and wants to make it easy for consumers to make greener choices.

Part of the Orkla group, Jordan was created in 1927 in Norway and is the leading oral care brand in Scandinavia. Jordan’s range of high-quality award-winning products are designed to help people keep their teeth healthy for life. From the first tooth, they have tailor made products; made with purpose, to fit different needs and preferences.

Jordan believes that we all share a common responsibility in becoming more sustainable, with their main mission to keep improving their products, ensuring the high quality that they are known for, and always aim towards more sustainable solutions in their entire portfolio. Since they introduced their sustainability initiative, Green Clean, starting with just one toothbrush, Jordan has developed and expanded the range to include toothpaste and a child friendly line, to take care of your teeth and the environment.  

“Scandinavian design is as much about aesthetics as it is about functionality. To me sustainability is also a big part of it”, says Norwegian designer Andreas Engesvik, the designer behind Jordan’s Green Clean toothbrush. The range includes:

Green Clean Adult Toothbrush (€3.49/£3.00)

With its modern design, ergonomic handle and quality bristles, Jordan Green Clean combines great functionality and sustainable materials.

• 90% of the total product (including packaging) is made of recycled materials, minimizing resource use and giving materials a new life.
• For instance, the toothbrush handle is made of recycled plastic originating from food containers, and the packaging is made of recycled paper fibres from paper-based products.
• The remaining 10% mainly consists of the bristles, which are 100 % bio-based, and the packaging label, which is made of FSC-certified paper from responsible managed forests.

The Green Clean toothpaste contains fluoride and xylitol to give you the best protection against cavities and is sweetened by using natural stevia and has added green tea extract known for its antioxidant properties.
