Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Fragrance allergens or undisclosed additives and Microbial growth if floss is stored damp on the Floss & Ploss and not on the Radius.
  • We flag Microbial growth on natural fiber storage on the Radius and not on the Floss & Ploss.
  • The Floss & Ploss is Dental floss (plant-based or silk) and glass case where the Radius is Silk fiber, plant-based wax coating, which is most of the difference in these two grades.

Both products run through the same public rubric: materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
