ACE – Twipes

eco-friendly toilet wipes that disperse within three hours

Pitch

The world currently consumes 5.8 million tonnes of wipes annually. Yet, “flushable” wipes are just marketing gimmicks and they just clog the drainage systems! Twipes are eco-friendly toilet wipes.

They are moist wipes encased in a plastic roll that slides on to your existing bathroom toilet tissue roll holder. Twipes are anti-bacterial, alcohol free and paraben free, they don’t dry out and most importantly, each Twipe is 100% dispersible in water within 3 hours, unlike traditional “flushable” branded wipes that can take up to 3 months or even years. This means that from the moment you flush, to the time it gets to the main waterworks, Twipes have broken down into its basic elements.
