In fact, the loofah fruit looks like a large squash. Each vine produces between 5-25 fruits per crop.nn• When ripe, the inside of the loofah fruit develops a network of fibres that are perfect for cleaning and exfoliating purposes when dried.nn• Loof Co loofahs are grown in Egypt and our products are made from a variety that is rich in fibres, durable yet soft and flexible.nn• To get the best texture, the loofahs are carefully harvested, peeled, cleaned of seeds and dried. (Some seeds may be impossible to remove).nn• The dried loofahs are cut into lengths and processed by hand to create a long lasting, yet biodegradable plastic-free range of washing-up, cleaning and body products.
