BUILT FOR MODERATE CHEWERS
Dogs love traditional bones, but as pet parents we wanted more—like recyclable material, easy cleaning, and a safety guarantee. So, West Paw made Drifty: the dishwasher-friendly bone upgrade that’s responsibly made from non-toxic Seaflex™.
Built Moderate Chewers, Drifty is a chew toy that can be used for fetch on land or in water (it floats!). Safer than a real bone as Seaflex material will not shred. Perfect toy for dogs with excess energy and need to "chew it out". It is also dishwasher safe.
BUILT FOR MODERATE CHEWERS
West Paw is an American Company, which hand crafts a range of eco-friendly and safe pet products, from their factory in Montana.
They stock their extremely durable Zogoflex dog toys which are suitable for activities including chewing, tugging and fetching. Some of their toys can be stuffed with treats and they all float. They have also now bought out Zogoflex Echo and Seaflex made with 12.5% recycled ocean-bound plastic blended with 88.5% zogoflex.
West Paw toys are dishwasher safe, non toxic (approved by the US FDA) and some are freezable.
They are designed to be recycled, creating virtually no waste during manufacturing. Even the packaging is printed on 100% recycled paper with soy based inks.
West Paw Design are so confident with their toughness guarantees that the toys comes with a one-time replacement against dog damage.
What’s the difference between Zogoflex & Seaflex?: Simply put, Seaflex contains post-consumer recycled ocean-bound plastic. Seaflex contains 12.5% recycled ocean-bound plastic (HDPE) blended with 88.5% Zogoflex (TPE). Whereas, West Paw's Zogoflex material is recyclable,100% virgin TPE (Thermoplastic elastomer).
What's the same between Zogoflex & Seaflex?:
Built for Moderate Chewers
Why do the Seaflex toys all have different swirl patterns in the same colorway?: The variation in swirl colors (within a single colorway) visually conveys the variable nature of the material flow within each molded shape. This was intentional in West Paw's product design, as the color mixes within the machine, they produce infinitely unique and beautiful color combinations making each toy unique to its 4-legged owner.
How can you be sure the ocean-bound plastic contained in Seaflex is safe for my dog? Seaflex is safe! As with Zogoflex, West Paw ensure their Seaflex material is safe and non-toxic, latex- BPA- and phthalate-free and FDA Compliant - meaning it’s safe to eat off of.
Seaflex has the same CE certification and safety measures as Zogoflex. CE marking indicates that a product has been assessed by the manufacturer and deemed to meet EU safety, health and environmental protection requirements. It is required for products manufactured anywhere in the world that are then marketed in the EU
ABOUT OCEAN-BOUND PLASTIC: What does "Ocean-bound plastic" mean? And how is it sourced?
Ocean-bound plastic is defined as material collected from communities with no formal waste management within 50 km or 31 miles of the shoreline. This terminology is in accordance with standards and research set by renowned marine debris expert, Jenna Jambeck.
Where do you source the plastic from? And how do you clean it?: Zogoflex is their recyclable, zero-waste virgin TPE material and is sourced in the USA. This is blended with the ocean-bound HDPE (think milk jugs and shampoo bottles) to make Seaflex!
The ocean-bound HDPE material is sourced from coastal communities in Central America within 31 miles or 50km from the shore-line and has no formal waste management system in place.
The ocean-bound plastic is cleaned using a patented, chemical-free cleaning process that removed contaminants and volatile substances and reprocessed into safe and non-toxic Seaflex material.
