Typically a kitchen sponge is manufactured from cellulose. Cellulose is the most common organic compound on Earth. About 33 percent of all plant matter is cellulose (the cellulose content of cotton is 90 percent and that of wood is 50 percent).

Cellulose is the major constituent of paper and cardboard and of textiles made from cotton, linen, and other plant fibers.

Most kitchen sponges are usually made of cellulose wood fibers or foamed plastic polymers. Sometimes you can buy natural sponges, but they are used as body sponges or painting sponges.
