Cleaning With
Microfiber - What Is Microfiber
Cleaning With
Microfiber
Today’s
cleaning techniques and products have changed from the days of the old
feather duster, cotton mops and dust mops. With the emphasis being on green,
cleaning with microfiber makes it the green
product of choice for better cleaning.
What Is Microfiber?
Microfiber comes in a variety of naps, sizes, weights and weaves for
different applications.
Microfiber products are often a blend of polyester and
microfiber polymer, and blends vary.
Microfiber cleaning materials are a blend of microscopic polyester and
polyamide fibers, which are split in such a way as to create microscopic
“hooks” which act as claws that scrape up and hold dust, dirt, and grime.
They are 1/16 the thickness of a human hair and can hold six times their
weight in water.
So
just what makes cleaning with microfiber better than using traditional type
cleaning products? In a nutshell, they clean better, reduce the
amount of cleaning chemicals required and last longer than traditional
products. Though they may have an initial higher price, the overall cost of
cleaning is reduced.
Prevent Cross Contamination
Cleaning with microfiber mops will reduce the cross contamination by
preventing the spread of germs from one room to another as in a hospital
situation. Simply load your
chemical bucket and place the mops into it using one per room. Once the
room is completely mopped, place the used one in the discard bucket, which
will be washed, and ready to use again.
How
Does Microfiber Clean
Microfiber dusters are also much better at capturing dust than the
traditional feather dusters. The dust particles have a negative charge while
the microfibers are positively charged therefore, they will attract the dust
to them as do the opposite poles of a magnet attract each other.
If
you have not started cleaning with microfiber I suggest you take a
closer look at the products and put some into use in your facility or home.
Once you use them for just a short time you will better understand their
value and the benefits, a cleaner environment in which you work and live.
