Our story

It started at our bathroom sink.

We wanted less plastic in our home. So we started with the things we reached for every day: our toothbrushes, our floss and the everyday essentials around the bathroom sink.

The test was simple. A swap had to work well and be something we enjoyed using enough to keep using.

That became FLON, our small, family-run business. And it is still how we choose everything we sell.

Chapter one

A small detail. A better start.

Our first product was a bamboo toothbrush with a flat base, so it could stand on its own.

Water could drain away, the bamboo could dry and the sink stayed a little tidier. A simple detail that made something ordinary more useful.

It set the standard for FLON: pay attention to the little things. They are the things you live with every day.

Chapter two

The floss runs out. The jar stays.

That same thinking is behind our bestselling silk floss, now at the heart of FLON.

A glass jar that earns its place by your sink. Silk floss for your everyday routine. And a refill when you need more. Keep the jar, replace the floss and carry on.

We like how simple that is. Once the jar is part of your bathroom, refilling it becomes part of your routine. One small change you can keep making, with less to throw away each time.

Care begins with the people who make it.

Our bathroom story also takes us to Nigeria, where our black soap and shea butter come from women-run co-operatives.

Made by hand using techniques passed down through generations, these products carry the knowledge and skill of the women who make them.

We are proud to bring that care into your everyday routine, and to support the people behind it.

What matters to us.

Three things that guide everything we sell.

Every product earns its place.

We keep our range focused on floss and bathroom essentials, choosing things for how well they work and how good they are to use. The details matter, from a toothbrush that stands up to a jar you can refill.

Thought goes into the packaging, too.

Your order arrives packed without plastic, using kraft paper, recycled cardboard, compostable fillers and paper tape. The care we put into choosing our products carries through to how we send them.

Keep what you can. Refill what you use.

A useful container should have a life beyond its first fill. Our silk floss makes that easy: keep your glass jar and top it up whenever you run out.

Your next small change starts here.

Meet our bestselling silk floss. A glass jar to keep, refills to come back for and an everyday habit worth making your own.
