Correcting Your Flossing Habits

We live in a world that has conditioned us to believe that “luxury” and “disposable” are the same. They have been selling us a life of convenience. The industry didn’t want you to reduce or reuse because that would mean their profits would decline. They reinvented the word ‘trash’ and called it ‘recyclable’.

This has made the whole world slowly shift into a life that is filled with plastic that you use for all of 30 seconds before you toss it into a recycling bi, hoping that it will get recycled into something useful. It hardly ever does.

The statistics alone show that between 1950 and 2017, the human population has produced over 9 billion metric tons of plastic. And get this: more than 6 billion tons of that end up in landfills or in our oceans. Our most healthy habits have even fallen victim to the plastic frenzy. Think about your teeth for a second; most dental floss is just super-thin strands of nylon, which is just a fancy word for plastic. Not only that, it is also coated in synthetic chemicals.

This is where SINAMARK steps in. This product was designed to be a catalyst for change. It is a way to bring us back to the non-synthetic era.

A Mark of Integrity

There is a widespread idea that products made in China are usually cheap and disposable. Considering that it is the Western corporations that saturate the market with non-degradable trash, don’t you think that this is ironic?

Sinamark doesn’t believe that excellence is something that you strive for; it’s a standard that is either there or it isn’t.

The Chinese name is 卓越龍牌 (Zhuóyuè Lóng Pái), which literally translates as “The Excellent Dragon Mark.” This reflects the very belief that surrounds the brand: a product is only finished when it is perfect. The true quality of a product comes with completeness.

The logo is a fish scale chop. It is only applied to products that meet their standards.

This standard of excellence is not a new trend; it’s over 5000 years old. Empress Léizǔ was the first to see the potential of the silkworm. This was how she created a material that we still use all over the world today: silk.

The brand sources it’s Sinasilk from Hangzhou, Huzhou, Jiaxing, and Suzhou. It is not just about fabric; it’s about creating a legacy of natural quality and strength that the synthetic materials and plastic can never replicate.

Living A Life Of “Green”

Most modern companies are still trying to navigate “green” marketing, while the people of Zhejiang Huzhou have been living sustainably for over 2500 years.

Sinamark supports the Mulberry-Dyke and Fishpond System. Which is basically a masterclass in sustainability.

It’s not just a farm that spans 10,000 hectares. It’s a perfect little circle of living where absolutely nothing goes to waste. This is an efficient way to balance nature and human needs and is recognized by the United Nations as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System.

What makes this so great?

·    Instead of being in a battle with nature, the system encourages it.

·    Mulberry trees grow on the banks, which feed the silkworms.

·    The waste from the silkworms provides the fish in the ponds with food.

·    This creates nutrient-dense pond sediment that is used to fertilize the trees.

This is the ultimate self-sustaining loop.

Why Do We Floss?

I’m sure you’ve heard before that brushing your teeth only does half the job because it skips gaps between your teeth, which leaves almost 50% of your tooth’s surface untouched. Flossing is important, but we need to focus on the materials used.

Most modern commercial floss is made from synthetic plastics coated with Teflon and PFAS. These are the kind of chemicals that will remain in the environment for decades to come. And not only that, it will stay in your body indefinitely. You’re basically rubbing your sensitive gums with industrial chemicals.

Sinamark believes we already have the perfect tool, designed by nature. No independent testing was conducted at the UNLV School of Dental Medicine. This test found that waxed silk is more effective at grabbing and removing plaque than standard unwaxed nylon floss.

Your oral health is a gateway to your overall health. There is research to back this up.

• Harvard Health research suggests that the bacteria that come from gum disease can actually travel to the brain, which compromises your long-term cognitive function.
• The American Heart Association has linked microplastics to an increase in cardiovascular issues.

By consistently flossing with natural, plastic-free materials, you will lower your body’s overall inflammation.

Sinasilk Standard

Sinamark has designed a product that is for health-conscious individuals who refuse to compromise. They move away from plastic and give you a tool that is efficient and natural for your daily routine.

This is what makes the Sinasilk 100% Natural Dental Floss a product of excellence:

• Silk is a protein fiber, unlike nylon or polyester, which means that it eventually returns to the earth. The floss and packaging are both compostable, so your daily hygiene routine doesn’t compromise the earth for the next few decades.
• Silk is praised for its tensile strength. Sinasilk gives you the durability you need to get into those smaller gaps between the teeth without fraying or snapping.
• This product comes in a high-quality, reusable glass bottle that is secured with a stainless steel lid. It has been perfectly designed to ensure it can be refilled rather than tossed away and replaced.
• Sinasilk uses no Teflon or PFAS. This ensures that you can clean your teeth with a product that is both natural and chemical-free.
• Every strand of floss supports the Zhejiang Huzhou Mulberry-Dyke & Fishpond System. This is a heritage site that has practiced economic balancing for more than 2500 years.
• Because this is a natural fiber, it also has a unique texture that is perfect for grabbing plaque. It is also, less harsh on the gums.

The Ritual for Ultimate Resilience

Choosing a product like Sinasilk is your way of saying that you value the “excellent dragon mark” over the convenience of modern-day products. This is an acknowledgment that your oral health is just as important as your overall well-being and also the planet.

By making the change, you are contributing to less plastic waste piling up in the landfills and our oceans.
