Bamboo chopsticks sold individually (in sets of two) are perfect to add to your zero waste kit or utensil set.
They are non-toxic, healthy and safe. A great addition to your kitchen! Bamboo chopsticks are considered better than traditional wooden chopsticks because trees take much longer to grow than bamboo. Also, wood is more likely to become contaminated (more susceptible to mold and spoilage) compared to bamboo.
Carry them with you to eat your favorite Asian dishes at any time. Note that they will stick out of the carrying bag, but once the bag is closed with a knot, they will stay in place.

Ethically made in China.
Bamboo is a fast-renewing resource with antimicrobial properties. In addition, the moso bamboo used in our toothbrushes is a type of bamboo not consumed by pandas. It grows naturally without the use of chemicals. The handle is 100% biodegradable. The nylon bristles are flexible enough to reach all corners of the mouth to keep your teeth in perfect health. It is a great alternative to plastic.
Our mission is to help reduce plastic waste by offering environmentally friendly products that are accessible and easy to use.
Making a difference means starting with small gestures. Our adventure started with the bamboo toothbrush, because it's an item that we will use for the rest of our lives and that is (almost) always made of plastic! But we weren't going to stop there! A ton of utilitarian objects are disposable and pollute a lot.
Hence the creation of our various other eco-friendly products, such as our reusable bamboo utensils and straws, our reusable makeup remover pads, our eco-friendly dental floss and much more!
Social economy
For OLA Bamboo, social involvement is an integral part of the company's mission. That's why we do business with Re-Source Integration, a social economy enterprise located in Gatineau, which employs more than a hundred people with disabilities, including intellectual disabilities, physical limitations and mental health problems. We also work with Pivot Centre-du-Québec, located in Drummondville, which is a psychosocial rehabilitation service through the medium of work. The participants in recovery are people aged 18 and over living with a mental health problem.
Whether it is for the assembly of certain products and displays or for the engravings of certain corporate products, we are proud to work with these magnificent teams!
We plant trees
When you purchase an OLA Bamboo product, you participate in the planting of trees with CO2 Compensation Québec. It is very important for us to reduce our carbon footprint and to help the health of our beautiful planet. Since the beginning of the adventure, more than 2000 trees have been planted in Notre-Dame des Bois and 1000 others in Stratford, Quebec... thanks to you!
