When practicality meets craftsmanship, even the most ordinary garden tasks feel better. The Burgon & Ball RHS Large Dustpan and Brush Set is a beautiful example of that balance — a thoughtfully made tool that turns everyday tidying into a satisfying finish. Designed in partnership with the Royal Horticultural Society, it combines quality materials, sustainable design, and enduring comfort.
The wide dustpan is made from fifty percent recycled polypropylene, offering durability without unnecessary weight. It’s built to handle compost, soil, leaves, or dust, while its smooth front edge helps collect debris neatly in a single sweep. The pan is finished with a subtle curve and raised sides, so nothing escapes once gathered.
Paired with the pan is a sturdy brush featuring stiff synthetic bristles made from one hundred percent recycled PVC fibres. They’re densely packed to give firm sweeping power, yet soft enough to avoid scratching smoother surfaces. Whether clearing up after potting or brushing down a patio, the bristles strike the right balance between strength and control.
The brush head is crafted from FSC certified hardwood with a natural wax coating that enhances water resistance and protects against wear. The wooden handle is shaped to fit comfortably in your hand and attaches neatly into the dustpan’s handle when not in use. This clever design keeps your workspace organised, ensuring both pieces store together — simple, effective, and elegantly practical.
This RHS endorsed set carries the assurance of long-lasting quality. It reflects Burgon & Ball’s Sheffield heritage of toolmaking excellence, with nearly three centuries of crafting for gardeners who value both purpose and beauty. Whether you use it daily in a greenhouse or keep it by the back door for light clean-ups, this dustpan and brush set delivers the kind of reliability that makes small chores genuinely enjoyable.
It’s the combination of good design and honest materials that sets this tool apart. Made responsibly, built to last, and shaped to feel right in the hand, it represents the best of modern sustainability meeting traditional British craftsmanship.
