Punched
Description
Cotton cleaning rags in jersey quality made from colorful T-shirts, fitted sheets, etc. or from white bed linen in calico quality.
The neatly stacked cotton cleaning rags are punched into 40x40cm squares and packed in 10 kg boxes.
Jersey cleaning rags are considered all-rounders and are universally applicable. Due to the fine structure of jersey fabrics, they form a very soft and absorbent rag.
The cleaning rag is primarily used to clean oil and grease-stained machines, systems, tools or similar.
Due to the tight weave of the calico rag, it is better suited than jersey, flannel, or terry cloth for removing stubborn dirt. However, due to this property, it can absorb less liquid.
The smooth surface of the cleaning cloth allows for lint-free cleaning. The rag is therefore ideally suited for polishing work.
Due to the accurate cutting into 38x38 cm rags, they are particularly used in workshops that, for example, are visited by customers or where a clean and high-quality appearance is important. The neatly stacked cotton cleaning rags are punched squarely and packed in 10 kg boxes.
Like all our industrial cleaning rags, the jersey rag also meets the requirements of DIN 61650. The cleaning rags are sorted by color and quality and freed from buttons, zippers, eyelets, etc. They are then punched into 38x38cm cloths.
Properties of colored jersey:
- absorbent
- dirt-absorbing
- durable
- tear-resistant even when wet
Properties of white calico bed linen:
- conditionally absorbent
- robust
- low-lint
- tear-resistant even when wet
- non-staining
- solvent-resistant
How is it made?
1. Collection & Pre-sorting
Unwearable cotton clothing is collected via collection points or take-back systems and sorted by material type, quality, and suitability for cleaning cloths.
Instead of being incinerated, these absorbent and robust textiles enter the cleaning cloth cycle. This allows these materials to be given an additional purpose.
2. Cutting & Preparation
The selected textiles are freed from buttons, zippers, and interfering elements, reconditioned, and then cut into manageable formats.
By dividing them into different fabrics and colors, the right cloth can be used for every application.
3. Quality Check & Packaging
The cut cloths are checked for cleanliness, material quality, and uniform size, and then pressed into cubes or placed in cartons.
Afterward, they are packaged, often with minimal or recyclable packaging materials, and shipped as finished, sustainable cleaning cloths.
From old clothes – a clean future
Our cleaning rags are made from carefully selected used textiles, extending the life cycle of existing materials. Instead of consuming new resources, we use what is already available – for less waste, a smaller carbon footprint, and a truly sustainable cleaning experience.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are the products sustainable?
Yes, reusing existing materials conserves resources.
Are there any deviations in color or texture?
Yes, since we work with repurposed materials, slight deviations are possible.
White or Colored Industrial Cleaning Rags – What's the Difference?
The decision depends primarily on the area of application.
White cleaning rags:
- ideal for delicate surfaces
- no color transfer
Colored cleaning rags:
- cheaper
- perfect for rough cleaning tasks
Many companies therefore use both variants in parallel, depending on the application.
Is the product suitable for professional use?
Yes, all our products are designed for regular commercial use.
Our cleaning cloths comply with the requirements of DIN 61650. The cleaning cloths are sorted by color and quality, freed from buttons, zippers, eyelets, etc., and cut into handy, irregular sizes of approx. 40cm x 40cm.
How fast is shipping?
Shipping usually takes place within one business day.
Sustainably clean
Why our cleaning cloths made from old clothes are so convincing
Made from discarded clothing, for a clean workplace and a clear conscience – without compromising on performance and quality.
Save valuable resources
We transform discarded clothing into high-quality cleaning cloths – this way, fewer textiles end up in landfills and raw materials are conserved.
100% Made in Europe
Our entire production takes place exclusively in Europe. Unwearable textiles from European collections are reprocessed here and given a new, useful life as industrial cleaning cloths.
Strong for everyday life
Cotton cloths are very absorbent, soft, and durable. Due to their structure, they reliably absorb oil, grease, water, and dirt.
In addition, the cloths have usually already been washed multiple times, which opens up the fibers and significantly increases absorbency.
Zero-waste mindset
The used textiles are repurposed in a meaningful way, which saves resources and offers a sustainable alternative to single-use materials.
