The Problem with Green Cleaning Recipes

Green cleaning recipes are all the rage and many people are making the switch to green cleaning products to try and get away from the toxic chemical cleaners that have been shown to have an adverse effect on people’s health.

The problem with these green cleaning recipes though is they are a hassle to make, they don’t smell great and they don’t really work that well!

Like every good mechanic knows, you have to have the right tools to do the job and even though the green cleaning recipes are better than their chemical counterparts for your health, you are still going to have a hard time cleaning without the right tools.

Most families in their homes are still cleaning with cotton cloths, paper towels or even newspapers on the windows.

Now, paper towels can do a good job with absorbing liquids and cleaning up lint from windows, but there is a lot of waste and part of the green cleaning movement is to be eco-friendly and protect the environment.

The use of paper towels does not help that and in fact Americans use over 3,000 tons of paper towels a DAY! It takes 51,000 trees a day to replace those paper towels.

The problem with cotton cloths is they don’t remove bacteria without having a chemical agent to kill it. Bacteria that does get on the cloth stays there and that is where you get the smell from, even after rinsing it out.

If you use the cloth again, it still has the bacteria on it and it spreads to other surfaces.

And as for newspapers…let’s just stick to reading the headlines instead of wiping the black print all over our windows.

 

So the solution?

 

The E-Cloth

 

Ecloth is a top quality microfiber cloth that uses microfiber technology to grab dirt and bacteria and trap it between the tiny fibers in the cloth. This actually lifts the bacteria from the surface and keeps it in the cloth so it doesn’t go back on the surface or get pushed around like cotton cloths do.

You don’t need any green cleaning recipes and especially no toxic chemical solutions, all you need is water and a quality microfiber cloth.

It has been shown to remove over 99% of bacteria from hard surfaces and with a quick rinse in hot water it releases it all down the sink, so there is no transfer to other surfaces if you are to use the same cloth again.e-cloth microfiber technology

The cloths don’t hold the bacteria, so if you have the problem of stinky kitchen cloths, then you have a bacteria problem. It is the bacteria in those used cotton cloths that make them smell. Not so with microfiber cloths from E-cloth. They don’t hold the bacteria, so they don’t smell, even after using them regularly for days.

In fact, just one wash a week for a regular household is enough to keep the ecloths fresh and new and they are guaranteed for at least 300 washes. That is 6 years of daily use from one cloth.

Just how many paper towels and cleaning supplies do you think you would save in 6 years?

E-cloth has been manufacturing microfiber cloths since 1995 and is the world’s leader in quality microfiber cloths.

They have the highest amount of fibers per square inch of any microfiber dues to their advanced manufacturing procedures and can pack 1.6 million fibers per square inch compared to 200,000 from most of their competitors.

What does this mean for you?

More cleaning power!

Microfiber Cleaning Cloths from Ecloth

Microfiber Cleaning Cloths are a revolutionary, environmentally friendly, and extremely effective way to clean.  Microfiber cloths are made of tiny fiber which catch and hold dirt, grease and grime and pull it away from your surfaces. There are approximately 200,000 fibers in one square inch of a high standard store bought microfiber towel. Top level microfiber cloths have 1.6 million fibers per square inch and that really makes a difference!E-cloth Cleaning Products Ecloth is the world’s leading producer of microfiber cloths and have been manufacturing since 1995. Nearly 500 million fiber strands are in each e-cloth resulting in 1,246 miles of e-cloth fibers in each cloth.  To put this in perspective, fibers from one e-cloth would stretch from New York City to Minneapolis or Seattle to San Diego.It is e-cloth’s composition (highest quality polyester and polyamide), fiber size (smallest diameter in the world), fiber processing (highest density in the world), that allows e-cloth to outperform all other microfiber and cleaning cloths.

e-cloth’s filaments are so small and so strong; using just water they break up, lift, lock in, and clean deep down into the tiniest grooves and crevices.  Dust, grease, oils, grime, dirt and bacteria are quickly and easily removed and locked away deep inside the fibers until the cloths are rinsed or washed.

Surfaces are cleaned so effectively that there is nowhere left for bacteria to grow.  Surfaces are left polished and totally smear and lint free.  e-cloths rapidly absorb 7 times their weight in water.

In addition, scientific research carried out by world renowned Silliker Group, has proven that e-cloths also remove over 99% of bacteria.

High quality microfiber cleaning cloths feature split microfiber, after the splitting process each fiber towel looks like an asterisk if you’re looking at a cross section. The open spaces in the microfiber created by the splitting process allow it to pick up and hold dirt as well as absorbing liquid.

You can use microfiber cleaning cloths dry as a duster instead of using a cleaning cloth treated with chemicals or a (chemical) spray and wipe method. Split microfiber is positively charged which makes it work like a magnet attracting negatively charged dust particles. This characteristic along with the microscopic open spaces created by the splitting process allow the cloth to attract and hold dirt and dust rather than just pushing it around like a cotton cloth would. Depending on the size of the cloth you may want to fold it. For instance, when using a 16×16 cloth it’s probably best to fold it into fourths. This gives you 8 cleaning surfaces on one towel. When using a smaller cloth, like a 12”x12”, you may want to just use it unfolded like you would use a wash cloth while bathing. Once you’ve collected the dust around the house you can release the dust from the cloth by rinsing it out then you can go on to use the same cloth using the damp method described below.E-cloth Microfiber Cleaning ClothsWhen used damp, microfiber towels are great for removing smudged dirt, grease or stains. When using the microfiber towels damp, the squeegee like edges of each microfiber in a microfiber cleaning cloth scrape up the dirt while the open spaces keep the dirt in the microfiber towel. You can accomplish all of this with a microfiber towel without adding any chemical cleaners. When using the cloths damp it’s usually best to get it wet and then ring it out. You don’t want it to be dripping as the towel needs to have the capacity to absorb whatever you’re trying to clean off of surfaces. Like with a dry cloth, when using a larger cleaning cloth it’s probably best to fold it to give you multiple new cleaning surfaces on the same towel. This damp method works best for scrubbing bathrooms, cleaning appliances, wiping down kitchen counters, cleaning car interiors and hundreds of other cleaning applications.
The absorbency of microfiber make it great for cleaning windows, even when just using the cloth with water. Microfiber cleaning cloths hold up to 7 times their own weight in liquid which allows them to clean glass while leaving no streaks. This feature also makes them great for cleaning up spills. This will allow you to cut down on the use of disposable cleaning products like paper towels.
Microfiber cleaning cloths are machine washable! When cared for properly you can expect to get several hundred washes out of a single cloth and it will be as effective as it was the day it was new.e-cloth microfiber technology
