·FSC certified — independently verified against environmental and social standards.

Cost Per Use

·Recycled — Often priced comparably to virgin materials. You get the same performance while diverting waste.
·Koala is known for products that hold up over years of use — which typically means a lower cost per use than cheaper alternatives that need replacing.
·Priced around $275 (midpoint of $150–$400 for Home). At ~30 uses/month, this hits the $1-per-use "worth it" mark in 9 months — and falls to roughly 15¢ per use across a 5-year lifespan.
