The Benefits of Using Microfibre Cloths in Your Commercial Cleaning Process

The Benefits of Using Microfibre Cloths in Your Commercial Cleaning Process

By admin inBusiness Improvement, Innovation

The microfibre cloth has tiny fibres that are highly efficient in capturing dirt, dust and bacteria, making them highly valuable for commercial cleaning tasks and more.

These versatile cloths find applications in multiple sectors like healthcare, hospitality, education and others. They can be used for wiping down surfaces ranging from countertops to metal surfaces, making them a go-to choice for many businesses in their cleaning process.

In this blog post, we will be exploring the benefits of adding microfibre cloths for commercial cleaning.

We will explore how these cloths reduce the need for cleaning chemicals, their durability, and how they can save businesses money. Additionally, we will provide several examples of how microfibre cloths are utilized in different industries and how effectively they perform during the cleaning process.

What are microfibre cloths?

Microfibre cloths are cleaning cloths composed of synthetic fibres that are extremely fine.

Typically, these fibres are produced from a mixture of polyester and nylon, resulting in a fabric that is exceptionally proficient in cleaning surfaces. Microfibre cloths, as opposed to cotton cloths or paper towels, are crafted to capture, and confine dirt, dust, and bacteria rather than just redistributing them over the surface.

One of the key features of microfibre cloths is their size. The fibres are tiny, so much so that they are measured in microns, which is one-thousandth of a millimetre! High-quality microfibre clothes will never scratch surfaces either.

Microfibre cloths are also extremely absorbent. They can hold up to seven times their weight in water, compared to traditional cotton cloths. Additionally, microfibre cloths can be used over and over again, which makes them a sustainable product for companies looking to increase their sustainability.

Overall, these cloths are a adaptable and effective tool for cleaning. Their small size, absorbency, and durability make them a great choice for a wide range of industries and cleaning applications.
