Our handy microfibre cloths are fully customizable on both sides and useful!
They measure approximately 12” x 12”.
Microfiber cleaning cloths and mops work well for removing organic matter (dirt, oils, grease) as well as germs from surfaces. Microfiber’s cleaning ability is the result of two simple things: more surface area and a positive charge. They are also great for cleaning glasses and electronics and won’t scratch the surface.
What is microfiber?
- Microfiber is a synthetic material. Microfiber used for cleaning is called split microfiber. When microfibers are split, they are 200 times thinner than a single human hair. These split microfibers become much more absorbent. They can remove large quantities of microbes, including hard-to- kill spores.
- Split microfiber quality varies. Microfiber that catches slightly on the surface of your hand is better quality. Another way to tell is to push a water spill with it. If the microfiber pushes the water instead of absorbing it, then it’s not split.
- A microfiber cloth has the same surface area as a cotton cloth four times as large! And it is very absorbent. It can absorb seven times its weight in water!
- Microfiber products are also positively charged, meaning they attract negatively charged dirt and grease. These characteristics of microfiber allow you to clean surfaces without chemicals.
- Another advantage of microfiber is that, unlike cotton, it dries fast, making it hard for bacteria to grow in it.
Why use microfiber tools for cleaning?
- They reduce exposure to chemicals in the ECE environment and reduce pollution from cleaning chemicals.
- Microfiber is durable and reusable.
- Microfiber is made from synthetic fibers, usually polyester and nylon, which are not treated with chemicals.
- Microfiber saves the ECE provider up to $100.00 per year in cleaning costs because they are reusable and durable.
- Microfiber lasts longer than cotton; it can be washed a thousand times before losing its effectiveness.
