Soft Side — Natural Loofah
Dried plant fiber that provides organic exfoliation. A softer, more natural feel suitable for daily use and sensitive skin.
Spongé brings together a natural loofah surface and an exfoliating nylon mesh — a single elongated bath sponge that moves between gentle cleansing and deeper exfoliation without switching tools.
Luffa cylindrica, cotton and hemp.
Soft loofah on one side, nylon mesh on the other.
No fluff, no rigid parts, no markup.
Designed to return to the earth with grace.

An elongated bath sponge designed for everyday use. A flat, flexible geometry with integrated handles at both ends — pull taut, glide across your back, flip for deeper exfoliation.
Rinse thoroughly after use and hang to dry by a handle. Replace every 3–4 months for the loofah surface. The mesh side may be too abrasive for very sensitive skin.
Free shipping over $40. Arrives in plastic-free packaging within 3–5 business days. 30-day returns on unused sponges.
Flip between gentle cleansing and more active exfoliation without changing tools.
Dried plant fiber that provides organic exfoliation. A softer, more natural feel suitable for daily use and sensitive skin.
High-density surface designed for controlled exfoliation. Increases friction against the skin for a deeper, more active clean.
Luffa cylindrica — dried plant fiber that provides organic exfoliation while staying gentle against skin.
A high-density weave designed to add controlled friction on the opposite face of the sponge.
A blend of natural fibers in the perimeter and braided cord handles — reinforcing traction and lifespan.
Each material fulfills a specific role. The loofah acts as the active surface on one side, while the nylon mesh functions as the exfoliating surface on the other. Both layers are joined through a continuous textile perimeter that defines the product's geometry.
The handles are independent textile elements, integrated through reinforced stitching to withstand repeated traction forces during use. The overall construction remains simple — prioritizing flexibility, lightness, and durability.
Primary surfaces are plant-based. Loofah is biodegradable and renewable.
Compatible with conventional manufacturing — no complex tooling, no hidden premium.
Designed to avoid unnecessary components. Simple, honest, long-lasting.
"The loofah side is soft enough for a daily rinse, and the mesh side actually works on my shoulders. I stopped using three different sponges."
"Finally a back sponge I can pull taut without the handles failing. It feels honest — just fabric and loofah, nothing plasticky."
"I expected it to fall apart in a month. Four months in, it's still holding up. Rinses clean, dries fast, lives on my hook."
Spongé began as a single question: could a bath sponge do two jobs well — cleansing and exfoliation — without adding complexity? Concept_01 is our first answer. A flat, flexible geometry with integrated handles, built from materials chosen for their honesty.
We avoid unnecessary components. We don't hide materials behind plastic shells. What you see is what you wash with.
Shop Concept_01With proper drying between uses, the loofah side typically holds up for 3–4 months of daily use. The nylon mesh lasts longer; we recommend replacing the whole sponge together for hygiene.
It can be, especially at first. We recommend starting with the loofah side and introducing the mesh side a few times per week until you find your rhythm.
Yes — Spongé ships in a recycled kraft sleeve with a stitched cotton loop. No plastic bags, no foam.
Our loofah is sourced from a family-run farm, then cut and stitched in a small textile workshop. We're happy to share more on request.
The loofah, cotton perimeter, and hemp cord are compostable. The nylon mesh is not — we're working on a fully plant-based version for Concept_02.
