What the heck is Microfiber? Microfiber is a technique for manufacturing synthetic fibers only 1/16th the width of a human hair with microscopic "hooks" that act as claws to scrape up and hold dirt, dust, grime and even bacteria. The fibers are so small they're able to penetrate the microscopic surface pores of materials.

Microfibers can hold 6-8 times their weight in water which is many times more than other materials. Microfiber mops are very durable and can be washed hundreds of times. Microfiber mops also require 95% less chemicals and are lighter in weight which reduces fatigue. EPA testing has shown that microfiber mops can reduce bacteria by 99%!

Our microfiber products are Heavy-Duty Professional grade, made from the highest grade textiles and have the maximum absorbency.

"I use our microfiber mops both here in the store and at home and really like and believe in them. They're twice as fast and less work to boot!"

I especially like the fact that I can use the light weight handle and pad holder for both dust mopping and wet mopping. Also, since the mop is flat, I can easily mop under the edges of the fridge and stove. At home, we have a cat and a dog that both shed during the spring and summer. I use the dustmop pad first and can pickup all the hair and dust in the kitchen and dining room in about 3 minutes. When I'm through, I step on one side of the pad and pull the handle up and grab the pad by the little strap and drop it in the washer. Since I don't have a mop bucket at home, I take the wetmop pad and put it in the sink and dribble a very small amount of floor cleaner like pine-sol (at the shop, I use a good neutral cleaner since we have waxed floors) on the pad and then run water on it. I'm still amazed at how much water microfiber absorbs. Then I pick up the pad and drop it on the floor and slap the holder on top. It only takes about 3 minutes to wet mop the kitchen and dining room. I usually don't wash the wetmop pads after every mopping at home since our kitchen and dining rooms aren't very big. I just prop the pad on it's edge and let it dry. The next time I mop, I just spray a little water on the pad with the vegetable squirter. I can usually mop several times before I wash it.

I also use our microfiber wipers at home although my wife gets mad when I use them for washing our cars. (They work great for car washing).

Rubbermaid Commercial microfiber wet mops are superior to their competitors like Tuway, White, ACT, PerfectClean and CleanSystem. Here are the tests to prove it: Microfiber wet pad durability tests.
