TePe is committed to the details that make all the difference… so as part of its commitment to achieving carbon neutral products and packaging in 2022, it has launched a more sustainable Interdental Brush (IDB).

Manufactured in Sweden using 100% green energy, TePe's new Interdental Brush is the next step in helping the dental industry to be more environmentally friendly.

In addition to being made with 100% green energy, the new TePe IDBs come in 100% recyclable packaging, made from plant-based renewable sources.

TePe maintains the high quality that professionals have come to expect from its products.

On its journey towards carbon neutrality, TePe has reduced its interdental brushes' carbon footprint by 80%. This has been achieved by using the existing plastic manufacturing infrastructure but with more sustainable raw materials. Pine oil is a by-product of the paper industry which is mixed with oils from other sources - a process called the Mass Balance Method, which has been independently audited by the ISCC.

TePe is committed to having a sustainable impact on the professional dental sector. TePe's efforts go beyond its own product range as it looks to educate and support consumers on making more planet conscious choices, through top tips and advice and working with third party sustainability experts.

The more sustainable interdental brushes from TePe are now on sale from your dental wholesaler; the new soft bag contains eight IDBs and now with easy opening.
