FlexTexture® is a highly engineered polymer foam. It’s scratch-free on over a dozen different surfaces, changes texture based on water temperature, resists odors for 8 weeks, is non-toxic, BPA and latex free.

ResoFoam® is a highly engineered foam that is exclusive to our brand. Unlike traditional cellulose, it remains velvety soft when dry and resists stains and odors. The material is also suds generating and 6x more absorbent than the leading sponge brand.

Our unique foam can remove many stains and debris with water alone, minimizing the need for harsh cleaning agents. Try baking soda, vinegar or mild dish soap for common household cleaning.

None! Only use with warm water.

Test results pending.

You can not recycle them through traditional methods. However, you can through our Recycling Rewards program.

Our products are not kosher certified but absolutely no aspect of their manufacturing processes deem them ineligible to be.

For messes in need of extra scrubbing power, like burnt or sticky debris, a firm texture is best. Use soft for lighter cleaning jobs or when you need absorbency and soap suds.

Tap water is all you need. FlexTexture® is firm in cold water and soft in warm water.

Depending on the time of year and location, some faucets may not produce water cold enough to drastically change Scrub Daddy’s texture. To test this, saturate your scrubber with water and place in the freezer for a few minutes. If no change is noticeable, please contact us.

Hold under warm running water and massage gently. Feel free to add a mild soap if needed.

Yes, all of our products are top rack dishwasher safe with the exception of Eraser Daddy and Screen Daddy.

Scrub Daddy is a scrubber, not a sponge! He will not absorb very much water, especially when cold. Try Scrub Mommy or Sponge Daddy for this instead.

Dampen and microwave for no longer than 60 seconds to sanitise.

Scour Daddy is a scour pad, not a sponge! He will not absorb very much water, especially when cold. Try Scrub Mommy or Sponge Daddy for this instead.

FlexTexture® foam is lab tested to not hold odors for up to 8 weeks under normal conditions.

Unlike the scrubby FlexTexture® side, ResoFoam® is only odor resistant. For best results, we recommend squeezing dry after use and storing in an open holder. Sponge Daddy is also top rack dishwasher safe.

2 weeks is considered the normal lifespan for this product, however, the number will vary depending upon individual use.

Sponge Daddy’s soft ResoFoam® side is odour resistant and can develop an odour over time.

Scrub Mommy’s soft ResoFoam® side is odor resistant and can develop an odor over time.

Eraser Daddy can be used on hard surfaces like walls, baseboards, switch plates, door frames and railings. The eraser side can scratch or dull some surfaces so it is good practice to test a small and inconspicuous area first. Avoid use on soft plastics, non-stick coatings, finished or unfinished wood, automobile finishes, stainless steel, copper, leather and bare skin. After using on a surface that may contain food rinse thoroughly to remove any residue.

Like any soft material, FlexTexture® will deteriorate over time with use. Rough surfaces or harsh chemicals will erode the foam faster than with gentle use. For more help please contact us.

Service life will vary. Eraser material deteriorates as it is used (like a pencil eraser!). To maximize its life span avoid use on highly textured surfaces and use the FlexTexture® side first.

Scent will gradually dissipate over time.

These products are made from the same materials, the only difference is their shape! Sponge Daddy is rectangular and Scrub Mommy is our signature smile face.

Only if you want them to be! Multiple colors make color-coding easier when using several in your home.
