With the advent of microfibers, industrial wipes & mops have gone through a major makeover from moist cloths and towels which at times fail to remove contamination on reuse. From an iPad to boiler installed at a power plant, wipes have been customized as per the product and requirement – making them more specific in cleaning quality control. |
| Colour coding has been done in accordance with their applications and the requirement of hygiene level which differs as per the industry. |
| Using wipes & mops to clean a surface is nonetheless an Art & Science. If done properly 16x16in microfiber wipe/mop can be used to clean four times larger surface area. Along with palm & frame area, selection of cloths/wipes does depend on the contamination level, type and so on. |
| One of the largest consumers of wipes & mops in terms of volume and applications is the facility service sector. Some of the main factors that determine the kind of wipes & mops to be used include the type of surface, area to be cleaned and hygiene requirement. Indeed, an end user need to gather all the data regarding exact requirement before placing an order for wipes & mops. This includes: Diameter of the particles that need to be removed, particles’ property that correlates the absorptiveness needed, area and volume of the space to be cleaned, hygiene level requirement, endurance needed and capital allotted to the cleaning. But in India, the cost factor plays an even bigger role in the purchase of wipe. |
| Despite the various determining factors, Liju Mathai, Director, Vema Hospitality Inc prefers to use easy mops for floor cleaning, as they can be refilled on a monthly basis. “For window cleaning and office maintenance, we prefer cloths & towels. Especially during the monsoons, we avoid microfiber material as it leaves behind moisture.” |

Satish Kumar, Quality assurance Manager, MTR Foods Pvt Ltd says, “We make use of normal dry cotton wipes & mops to clean our facility. These mops are cleaned with cleaning chemicals and disinfectants before being used in different areas. They are discarded on a weekly basis.” |
