One Papaya paper towel replaces 17 ROLLS of disposable paper towel! Most people like to compost and start a new one after 2-3 months of average wear and tear, but one can last up to 6-9 months depending on use!

Your Papaya paper towel will feel a lil’ stiff when dry. Simply wet to soften, use it like you would a paper towel, rag or sponge, and then hang after use for our no-smell, quick-dry, easy-storage solution!

Papaya paper towels are made of 70% cellulose and 30% cotton - both natural and renewable materials! So you can toss them in the compost at the end of their lifecycle and start a new one guilt free :)

For regular everyday use, hand-washing with soap and water does the trick. For a deeper clean (approx. once a week) you can machine wash & air-dry or place them on the top rack of your dishwasher during a cycle!

Papaya’s materials are super quick drying (especially when hung on our hook!). Most bacteria thrives in damp environments, so unlike dish towels, wash cloths or sink sponges that tend to stay damp and never get fully dry, Papaya paper towels dry so quickly, they inhibit the growth of that icky bacteria!

Your Papaya paper towels will start to dry within 1-2 hours and are typically fully dry in 3-4 hours! Unlike other materials that stay damp overnight, allowing bacteria to breed and develop that icky mildew smell.
