Jack N Jill Toothbrush Children Biodegradable Assorted
A compostable kids toothbrush with extra soft tapered bristles, an ergonomic handle sized for little hands, and adorable characters to make brushing something kids actually want to do.
Jack N' Jill pioneered the use of corn starch for toothbrush handles and packaging in Australia back in 2010, making them one of the first oral care brands in the world to replace plastic handles with a plant-derived, compostable alternative. The corn starch handle meets compostable standard EN 13432 (OK Compost certified) and the packaging - cardboard blister and box - is recyclable. No single-use plastic anywhere in the product or pack.
The bristles are super-fine PBT with a 0.01mm tapered tip, which gives a gentler, more thorough clean along the gumline than standard bristles - particularly useful when kids are still learning to brush with the right pressure. Extra soft rating, suitable from the first tooth.
Note: colour and character are randomly selected from the assorted range. If you need a specific character, check whether Santos stocks individual character options.
Jack N' Jill supports 1% for the Planet, with 1% of all toothbrush sales donated to environmental causes.

Why Santos Organics
Santos has been the Northern Rivers' organic food shop since 1978. As a not-for-profit social enterprise, every purchase supports our work in community food systems, environmental advocacy, and the Grow the Growers project. We stock Jack N' Jill because a compostable, plastic-free kids toothbrush at an honest price is exactly the kind of product our shelves are built for.
Santos Organics is not your average grocery store; it's a not-for-profit social enterprise and environmental charity. Since 1978, we've pioneered the organic wholefood movement. Our stores serve as community hubs where people connect with our team and fellow community members, sharing a journey toward optimal health and wellness. The palpable sense of community forms part of the social and cultural fabric of the Byron Shire and Northern Rivers. Employing over 70 passionate locals, we support hundreds of local farmers, makers, and artisans, promoting the local economy, building community resilience, and strengthening the local food system. Approximately 75% of the food on our shelves is locally grown, produced, or supplied, nurturing interconnectedness and supporting those passionate about clean, wholesome food and sustainable living.
Santos Organics makes conscious shopping easy by sourcing the best organic food and natural lifestyle products. We invest in ethics research through a dedicated Ethics Specialist position, ensuring our products meet rigorous standards before reaching our shelves. Our Care Check process aligns products with our social impact and environmental goals, providing customers with confidence in their purchases. Our commitment to ethical product procurement extends to partnerships with local farmers through initiatives like the Grow the Growers Project. This project helps local farmers establish pathways to the organic retail market, making fresh, locally grown organic food more available and affordable. By incorporating supply agreements and mutual marketing support, we foster connections between customers and the farmers behind their food.
Santos Organics significantly impacts the local community and economy. Over the last three years, our investments in local employment, goods from local suppliers and distributors, rent, and hiring local tradespeople have retained over $26 million within the Northern Rivers. In the past year alone, $5.3 million was circulated back into the local economy through these efforts, supporting over 100 Northern Rivers-based suppliers and distributors. This investment sustains our community's vitality and unique culture. Employing over 70 local team members ensures money stays within the local economy, enhancing opportunities for community interaction and support. Our local suppliers share our vision of promoting creative, sustainable, and healthy product development, strengthening the reputation of the Byron Bay region as a hub for innovation and sustainability.
