Plastic is found in many everyday products and we are trying to reduce it as much as possible. We are therefore offering you a nice version of bamboo to replace the colorful plastic plates that our children love so much! They will fall in love with these cute and very trendy elephants and cubs!
We kept the silicone pacifier for safety, as it helps solidify the plate well. Note that this silicone is BPA and phthalate free.
- Plate made from natural bamboo
- Silicone pacifier - Without BPA and without phthalates
- The plate is treated with an oil made from corn and soy, see below for maintenance
- Without packaging
- Bamboo cultivation is done without the use of pesticides or insecticides.
- Bamboo forests absorb 35% more C02 than a regular mixed forest.
- Does not contain melamine-formaldehyde
Dimensions:
Placemat open: 17.5 cm / 21.7 cm
Straw: between 19.5 and 20 cm long, variable width
Utensils: 15 cm longUse & care:
Wash the plate by hand and make sure to dry it well before putting it away. You can remove the silicone pacifier to make sure you thoroughly dry the area under the silicone.The plate is treated with corn and soybean oil, to maintain quality we suggest applying a thin layer of natural vegetable oil occasionally.
Use a brush or a rag to coat the plate with oil and wipe off the excess with a clean rag.
Note that laser-etched designs can fade with wear, but also with rubbing and washing.
Important: Do not put the plate in the dishwasher or in the microwave.
How to dispose of it:
Properly maintained, the plate should last for years, so don't hesitate to give it to the next one and give it to another child, if yours is too old.At the end of its life, you can place it in the trash, as the majority of composting facilities cannot process the larger pieces of bamboo / wood.

Bamboo is a resource that renews itself quickly and has antimicrobial properties. In addition, moso bamboo, used in the manufacture of our toothbrushes, is a type of bamboo not consumed by pandas. It grows naturally without the addition of chemicals. The handle is 100% biodegradable. Nylon bristles are flexible enough to reach all corners of the mouth to keep your teeth perfectly healthy. 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 things. Our adventure started with the bamboo toothbrush, because it is an element that we will use all our lives and which is (almost) always plastic! But we weren't going to stop there! A ton of utility items are disposable and pollute a lot.
Hence the creation of our various other ecological products, such as our reusable bamboo utensils and straws, our reusable makeup removal pads, our ecological dental floss and much more!
Social economy
For OLA Bamboo, social involvement is an integral part of the company's mission.This is why we are doing business with Re-Source Intégration, a social economy company located in Gatineau, which employs more than a hundred people with a disability, either an intellectual disability, physical limitations or mental health disorders. We also work with the company Pivot Center-du-Québec, located in Drummondville, which is a psychosocial rehabilitation service through the medium of work. 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; it is a pride for us to work with these wonderful teams!
We plant trees
When you buy an OLA Bamboo product, you at the same time, participate in tree planting with Compensation CO2 Québec. It is very important for us to decrease our carbon footprint and to help the health of our beautiful planet. Since the start of the adventure, more than 2,000 trees have been planted in Notre-Dame des Bois and 1,000 more in Stratford, Quebec ... thanks to you!
