A well-made dustpan and brush is one of those tools you reach for daily. This Iris Hantverk set pairs thoughtful design with more responsible material choices.
The dustpan is formed from bio-polyethylene — a durable plastic derived from renewable raw materials rather than fossil fuels — offering the strength and lightness of conventional plastic with a reduced environmental footprint. Its thin front edge sits close to the floor, allowing debris to be gathered cleanly and efficiently.
The matching hand brush features an oil-treated birch handle and densely set bristles for control and effective sweeping, whether in the kitchen, hallway or workshop.
Available in Moss Green and Ochre, both muted, practical tones.
Functional Scandinavian design — durable, responsible, and built for everyday use.

Iris Hantverk was founded in Stockholm in the late 1800s as a brush-binding workshop employing visually impaired craftsmen — a model that continues today. A core part of their production is still carried out by blind and visually impaired artisans trained in traditional brush binding techniques.
Brush binding is a highly tactile craft. Small holes are drilled into the wooden handle and bundles of natural fibre are pulled through and secured by hand using wire. It’s skilled, repetitive work that relies on touch, rhythm and precision rather than sight — one of the reasons the trade historically provided meaningful employment for blind craftsmen across Scandinavia.
Today, Iris Hantverk works with visually impaired artisans in Sweden and Estonia, maintaining both the social mission and the craft integrity of the brand.
Each brush — whether for vegetables, dishes or body care — reflects that heritage: oil-treated birch handles, natural fibres, and careful hand assembly. Practical tools, made slowly and with purpose, designed to last for years rather than seasons.
