Tackling the pervasive problem of single-use waste, LastObject, the company behind the reusable cotton swab LastSwab, has secured $1.3M in Series A funding. The capital will fuel its ambitious mission to replace everyday disposable items, which are a significant source of marine pollution and carbon emissions.
LastObject's first product, LastSwab, proved its market appeal by selling over 122,000 units through a successful Kickstarter campaign by October 2019. This funding round positions the company to expand its line of sustainable alternatives, moving beyond its initial success with the reusable swab.
