What is Non Woven Cleaning Cloths

Use these lint-free cloths as an alternative to paper towels for wiping surfaces, cleaning and drying dishes, and dusting. They have enough abrasiveness to cut through grime without damaging delicate or scratch-prone surfaces.

Made using a process known as hydro-entanglement (or jet entangled), this nonwoven cloth feels like traditional woven microfiber. Its isotropic properties give it remarkable strength measured in different directions.

Type A

Designed to clean greasy and oily surfaces, this cloth has an open, wavy texture that quickly picks up dirt particles and spills without leaving lint or streaking. It's also highly absorbent and resistant to tearing and sagging. J cloths are typically color coded in accordance with national coding systems, making them easy to designate for specific cleaning tasks and helping prevent cross-contamination.

Made of a blend of polyester and polyamide, this non-woven cleaning cloth is durable enough to be used for wiping and cleaning up spills. The high percentage of polyamide increases the strength and scrubbing power, while the polyester helps maintain the cloth's soft feel and wicking properties.

If you're looking for a microfiber that is gentle on delicate surfaces but strong enough to hold up to heavy use, consider Norwex. Their cloths are said to sanitize with just water and have silver embedded in them to really grip messes. They're also machine washable and will retain their softness for hundreds of washes.

Type B

The nonwoven commercial products were characterized with several techniques including thermal analysis (TGA and DSC), FT-IR, and SEM to categorize them according to their raw materials, web structures, and manufacturing factors. Optical microscopic images were also taken to analyze the fiber width and the morphology of the materials.

The staple fibers used in the study included mechanically cleaned greige cotton, polyester, and viscose rayon. In addition, the raw materials were characterized by evaluating their chemical properties and pricing (i.e., polypropylene and cellulose).

The physical properties of the commercial products and the meltblown samples were analyzed by using a textile softness analyzer (TSA, Emtec, Germany). Other methods to characterize the nonwovens include the determination of their basis weight, thickness, and density. The results of the airborne microfiber generation were also compared with water-based ones. The results showed that the commercial wipes of natural fibers generated more microfibers in the air environment whereas the double-bonded commercial meltblown samples produced significantly less in the air environment.

Type D

These cloths are usually made of a blend of polyester and either polyamide or nylon. The polyester gives the towels their durability and scrubbing power, while the polyamide or nylon adds absorbency. The wavy texture of these microfiber towels allows them to pick up dirt particles and suck it in to leave surfaces clean and dry.

These microfibre cleaning cloths are often colour coded in line with the National Color Coding System, allowing different cleaning staff to use them for their specific tasks to eliminate the risk of cross contamination. They are also machine washable, reducing costs and making them an eco-friendly choice.
