Know before you buy
Because this cloth is durable enough to last over six months and can be washed repeatedly, it replaces approximately 15 to 17 rolls of paper towels over its lifespan.
The cloth is naturally anti-bacterial and quick-drying, which helps prevent odors. If it needs a deep clean, you can safely wash it in your dishwasher or a washing machine at temperatures up to 90°C.
The cellulose and cotton blend is soft and non-abrasive, making it safe for use on countertops, glass, stainless steel, and ceramic surfaces without leaving scratches.
Yes, because it is made from 100% natural materials—70% cellulose and 30% cotton—it is fully biodegradable and can be added to your home compost bin once it is worn out.
When the cloth dries, it will become stiff and rigid, which is normal for this material. Simply wet it with water and it will immediately return to its soft, flexible, and highly absorbent state.
