This collection comprises absorbent textiles, typically woven or knitted, designed for cleaning surfaces. The set usually includes multiple cloths of varying sizes and textures, often packaged together for convenience and specific cleaning applications. These cloths leverage synthetic fibers, split to create a significantly increased surface area, enabling effective removal of dirt, dust, and liquids.
The advantage stems from the enhanced cleaning power, reusability, and reduced need for chemical cleaners. Unlike traditional cotton cloths, the specialized fabric traps and lifts debris rather than simply pushing it around. The introduction of these textiles marked a shift toward more sustainable and efficient cleaning practices in both domestic and commercial environments, minimizing waste and potentially lowering the environmental impact of cleaning processes.
