Join the Microfiber Movement: Why People are Switching from Cotton Cleaning Tools to Microfiber Cloths, Dusters, and Mops

For nearly every cleaning application, microfiber cleaning tools are a better option than cotton-blended tools. Here are a few reasons why:

Microfiber is better at attracting and holding dust and soil.

The tiny hooks in microfiber attract more dust and soil than cotton tools, which means dusters offer better dust containment, and cloths and mops are very effective at picking up and removing soil from a surface.

This illustration from shows how microfiber cloths are made of very thin fabrics woven together, making them perfect for catching even smallest grains of sand or dirt. To make them work even better, microfiber cloth manufacturers split fibers into even thinner strands, producing asterisk-like fibers.

Microfiber is extremely absorbent.

Microfiber cleaning tools can hold seven times their weight in water! That means fewer trips to the bucket, and you can use less water and cleaning chemicals for each job.

That’s especially helpful when working on particularly difficult surfaces, or applying floor finish!

Microfiber mops release soil easily when rinsed.

A simple rinse of your microfiber cloth or mop releases all that soil quickly and easily. That means no cross-contamination and no redepositing soil onto your surfaces.

Plus, mops stay fresh longer – no more “sour” mop smells!

Microfiber material is strong and long-lasting.

Microfiber cloth is made of durable polymers (plastics) so they do not disintegrate under long-term use, or leave strands on your surfaces as you clean, like cotton-based fabrics tend to do.

Microfiber helps you stop spreading dirt, and start cleaning!
