Frequently Asked Questions

Kelpy Bone is made from Notpla Rigid, a material crafted from seaweed. Unlike most dog toys, it contains no PVC, phthalates, or PVA plastics—just natural, safe ingredients for your pup and the planet.
Because it’s made from seaweed and other natural materials, Kelpy Bone is home compostable. If left alone, it breaks down naturally and returns to the soil; no microplastics, no mess, just the way nature intended.
Kelpy Bones are created to replace the plastic chew toys on the market. However, they are an all natural product so just as a stick would they will crumble away (yes we designed them not to splinter!). They are sturdy enough for everyday play and chewing, but longevity depends on your dog’s play style; gentle chewers will get weeks of use, while super-chewers may wear it down faster. Either way, when it’s done, it’s safe to compost and is a safer alternative than plastic toys.
Yes! We’ve designed Kelpy Bones to be non-toxic and plastic-free. They’re safe for your pup to chew, and you’ll have peace of mind knowing they’re free from harmful chemicals.
Kelpy Bones aren’t food, so they’re not meant to be eaten. However, we know dogs will eat even their plastic toys so if your dog does manage to ingest small pieces, don’t panic—it’s non-toxic and safe. Just be sure to supervise play, as with any toy.
Definitely! Kelpy Bones are great for the backyard, beach, or park. Just keep in mind that if left outside for long periods, nature may start to compost it a little faster.
Every Kelpy Bone is proudly made using sustainably sourced seaweed. Seaweed is one of the world’s most renewable resources, it grows fast, requires no fresh water or fertiliser, and helps absorb carbon from the atmosphere.
When your Kelpy Bone has had its fun, simply pop it in your home compost or green waste bin. Even if it ends up in the environment, it will break down naturally, as nature intended no long-lasting microplastic plastic pollution.
Seaweed is a climate hero and is great for pups health. It grows quickly without fertilisers, cleans ocean water, and stores carbon while it grows. By choosing seaweed-based products like Kelpy Bone, you’re helping reduce reliance on plastics and supporting a healthier planet.
