Microfibre and Polishing Cloths

Microfibre and Polishing Cloths are essential for fast, hygienic cleaning in professional kitchens, bars, hotels and contract catering sites. This range includes colour coded microfibre cloths, heavy duty options, glass polishing cloths and microfibre scrubbing sponges. Designed to lift grease, dirt and bacteria with minimal chemicals, they help you maintain spotless surfaces and streak-free glassware. Durable, absorbent and quick to rinse, these cloths support efficient cleaning routines and high hygiene standards across your operation.

• Colour coded microfibre cloths in blue, red, green, yellow and pink to help prevent cross-contamination between kitchen, washroom and front-of-house areas.
• Heavy duty and XL microfibre cloths for tackling tougher jobs such as greasy cooklines, prep areas and high-traffic surfaces.
• Specialist glass polishing microfibre cloths for streak-free results on glassware, mirrors and stainless steel.
• Washable microfibre scrubbing sponges that combine abrasive power with high absorbency for pots, pans and stubborn residues.
• Recycled and eco-conscious microfibre options to support greener cleaning policies without compromising performance.
• Multi-pack formats to suit busy restaurants, hotels, schools and facilities teams needing reliable day-to-day cleaning supplies.

How to choose the right Microfibre and Polishing Cloths

• Match cloth size and thickness to the task, using lighter cloths for general wiping and larger, heavier grades for deep cleaning and heavy soiling.
• Select colours to align with your hygiene plan, keeping separate cloths for food prep, washrooms, public areas and bar service.
• Choose specialist glass polishing cloths where presentation matters, such as wine glasses, bar counters and stainless steel equipment.
• Decide between standard and heavy duty microfibre depending on how frequently the cloths will be used and how tough the cleaning jobs are.
• Consider washable versus single-use options based on your laundry capacity, infection control requirements and staff workflows.
• Look for recycled or eco-labelled microfibre where sustainability targets are a priority for your business.

Care and maintenance

• Wash reusable microfibre cloths separately from cotton textiles and avoid fabric softeners, which can reduce absorbency and cleaning performance.
• Launder at the temperature recommended by the manufacturer to remove grease and bacteria while protecting the fibres.
• Allow cloths and sponges to dry fully between uses to minimise odours and bacterial growth, using ventilated storage where possible.
• Avoid bleach and harsh chemicals unless specified as suitable, as these can damage microfibre and shorten product life.
• Retire cloths that show signs of wear, thinning or loss of absorbency and relegate them to lower-risk tasks if needed.
• Store clean cloths in clearly labelled, dry containers to maintain colour coding and prevent cross-contamination before use.
