Cleaning Cloths & Scourers

The right cleaning cloth depends on the task. Microfibre cloths are ideal for general surface cleaning and dusting, dish cloths and tea towels suit kitchen tasks, disposable wipes are useful where convenience or single-use cleaning is preferred, and heavier industrial wipes or rags are better suited to tougher jobs.

Colour-coded cloths help separate cleaning tasks and areas, reducing the risk of cross-contamination. Different colours can be assigned to washrooms, kitchens, general areas or other zones according to your site’s cleaning procedures.

Microfibre cloths are reusable and can provide effective cleaning with good dirt and dust pick-up. Disposable wipes are designed for convenient single or limited use, making them useful where laundering reusable cloths is impractical or where hygiene procedures require frequent replacement.

Scouring pads and sponge scourers are useful for removing more stubborn soil and deposits. The level of abrasion varies between products, so always check that the scourer is suitable for the surface being cleaned to avoid scratching or damage.

Colour-coded cleaning cloths can help reduce the risk of cross-contamination by keeping cloths used for different tasks or areas separate. In food preparation environments, assigning specific colours to designated zones or cleaning tasks can support clearer hygiene procedures and make it easier for staff to use the correct cloth in the correct area.
