A cellulose sponge is a type of sponge made from cellulose fibers, which are derived from plant materials, usually wood pulp. These sponges are highly absorbent, biodegradable, and often used for cleaning and wiping surfaces. They are more eco-friendly compared to synthetic sponges because they decompose naturally. Cellulose sponges are typically softer than synthetic ones, making them ideal for delicate surfaces or tasks where gentleness is important.
They come in various shapes and sizes, often in a rectangular or square form, and can be used in kitchens, bathrooms, and even for general household cleaning. Over time, they may wear out or develop an odor due to bacterial growth, so it’s important to regularly clean or replace them. Some cellulose sponges are treated to make them more durable or to have additional features like antibacterial properties.
