What Are Microfiber Cloths?

Microfiber cloths and cleaning products are composed of minuscule synthetic fibers, normally a nylon/polyester blend, that have the following traits:

• Microfibers are split in a manner that forms microscopic hooks with the ability to hold microbes and particles that conventional cleaning tools would leave behind.
• The design gives microfiber cloths greater overall surface area than conventional cleaning tools so they can clean more thoroughly.
• Microfibers are designed to have a positive electric charge, which serves to attract negatively-charged dirt, dust and grease.

Microfiber Cloth vs. Traditional Cleaning Tools

Microfiber cloths and janitorial supplies have multiple cleaning advantages over traditional cotton products. They cost more than other products but offer significant savings over time.

• Their densely packed micro-filaments reach deep into surface cracks and crevices, removing 99% of bacteria compared to cotton's 30%.
• The smoothness of microfiber cloth also makes it much less likely to scratch a surface compared to coarser materials.
• Microfiber cleaning tools like microfiber mops can last for as many as 1,000 washes, five times as many as conventional wet loop mops.
• The effectiveness of microfiber towels and other products at removing dirt and bacteria means they requires less soap or cleaning product.
• Microfiber absorbs water more efficiently than cotton, requiring less water when mopping or performing other tasks.
• Microfiber dries more quickly than cotton, providing less time for bacteria to grow on damp cloth.
• Microfiber leaves no lint behind, making it ideal for cleaning glass and stainless steel without leaving streaks.

Pro Tip: Clean microfiber cloths separately from products made with other fibers.

Microfiber Cloths for Professional Cleaning

Microfiber cleaning tools are ideal for disinfecting high-traffic, high-risk areas in any facility. Whether your crew cleans hospitals, homes, restaurants or offices, you can clean more effectively and save on supplies with microfiber dusters, cloths, towels and mops.

The effectiveness of microfibers allows cleaning staff to service more areas in less time, reducing overall labor costs.

Pro Tip: To avoid cross-contamination, use color-coded or dedicated cloths to clean specific surfaces or workplace areas, such as desks, mirrors, restrooms or hazard areas.

People often wonder: What is a microfiber cleaning cloth?

Microfiber is defined as a fiber that is one denier or less. A denier is a measurement of fineness equal to a unit of fiber that weighs one gram for each meters'.meaning it is really small.

To put it into perspective, microfiber is 1/100 the diameter of a human hair and 1/20 the diameter of a strand of silk. One square inch of microfiber cloth has approximately 200,000 fibers just for cleaning.

• Why microfiber is so good at cleaning with just water
• How to use one microfiber cloth for dusting and wiping
• Why microfiber will never leave streaks and lint on your windows and stainless steel counters

Can you use it to dust?

You can use these cleaning wonders in many areas of your home and office.

Split microfiber is positively-charged which attracts the negatively-charged dust particles like a magnet. This makes it more effective (and safer) than a regular cloth and chemical spray for dusting.

Even better, you can just rinse it when you are done to release all the dust and then you can use it wet, making them the best cleaning cloths for everyday use.

"Using these Microfiber cloth makes cleaning actually fun. I hate cleaning and never thought I would say this, but it's true." - Anke, San Diego, United States

Will it work when it's wet?

When your towel is wet, it works great on smudged dirt, grease and stains. The towel works best when you rinse it and then wring it out as it needs some absorbency to pick up grime.

Cleaning Tip: Use microfiber and water to clean almost anything. It'll even be able to remove a variety of germs and bacteria. Learn More

Will it leave streaks on windows?

Because microfiber is so absorbent, it is perfect on windows and surfaces that tend to streak.

Since these towels can hold up to 7x their own weight in liquid, there is nothing left to streak the surface. This also makes it better than paper towels when cleaning up spills.

We've even made products just for this task, such as our microfiber window cleaning cloths and lens wipes. These are special lint free cloths for smooth surfaces. Go here for some great tips on how to use microfiber to clean glass.

"These are high quality excellent microfiber that lasts. I have paid more I have paid less and this is the best quality and bang for your buck by far. The cheaper ones only make it through a wash or two and don't absorb the way these do." - Crystal, Verified Customer
