Mewa reusable cleaning wipes contribute to employee safety
15 June 2020
A complete service cleaning wipe system from textile management company MEWA ensures hygienic industrial cleaning wipes are available at any time and safely stored after use, ready for collection, cleaning and re-delivery.

Today, hygiene and cleanliness are more important than ever for industrial companies and workshops. No aspect should be overlooked here, including wipes and rags for cleaning tools and machines.
The coronavirus epidemic is affecting not only the availability of some types of cleaning wipes, but also how they are used in the workplace. Paper towels, especially blue roll, are currently in high demand, leading to limited supplies and longer delivery times.
MEWA's approach to managed rental ensures workplaces receive their cloths in an airtight MEWA security container, the SaCon. After use, a cloth is simply thrown into a second safety container. When it is full, it will be picked up and fresh towels and containers will be provided.
At MEWA’s advanced washing facility, the towels are washed at a temperature of 90°C for at least 15 minutes, whereby all germs and microorganisms are completely deactivated.
Günes Yenen, MEWA UK Country Manager, adds: “The Coronavirus has not impacted our door-to-door delivery and because the towels are washed, and reused up to 50 times in our own facility, there are no supply chains issues. We can ensure that workplaces have a permanent supply of hygienic cleaning wipes and a safe storage system for both clean and dirty wipes.”
The MEWA system not only offers reliability in terms of delivery and security, it provides full cost control thanks to price transparency and predictability from the start. MEWA cleaning wipes are extremely absorbent and are said to save up to 30% cleaning time compared to paper towels.
