Items you can clean with a Palm Tawashi (Scrubbing Brush)

〇 Kitchen tools – Cutting boards / Mortars / Colanders / Graters
(Effectively removes dirt trapped in fine cuts and grooves made by knives—keeps things hygienic.)

〇 Soil and mud – Vegetables / Gardening tools / Outdoor gear / Dirt floors / Tires
(Perfect for removing soil on vegetables as well as tough outdoor mud and sand.)

〇 Ironware – Iron frying pans / Woks
(The stiff bristles remove stubborn oil residue with ease.)

〇 Wet areas – Washbasins / Tiles
(Useful not only at home but also in schools and public facilities.)

〇 Household dirt – Carpets / Rugs / Ventilation fans
(Brushing lifts the fibers and brings trapped debris to the surface, making vacuuming easier.)


■ Eco-friendly & economical

Palm tawashi brushes can be used without detergent, making them eco-friendly and gentle on your hands.
No need to rinse off soap, so they help conserve water.
Great for removing soil from root vegetables without damaging them—perfect for those who prefer to eat vegetables with the skin on.
Sun-drying improves durability, making them last longer than typical sponges and more cost-effective.


■ About the manufacturing

In Sri Lanka, where tawashi-making has long been a tradition, highly skilled artisans continue the craft.
Masatsumu Kitayama, a renowned Japanese tawashi craftsman known even among Sri Lankan artisans, visited the country to pass on his techniques and knowledge.
This high-quality palm tawashi is the result of that collaboration.

Compared to shuro (windmill palm), palm fibers are slightly firmer, making them excellent for heavy-duty cleaning of cookware and industrial tools.
By eliminating the traditional side bands found on typical palm tawashi brushes, all four sides of this brush can be fully utilized.
