Rag alternative

This is not just about product contamination from zips, clips and buttons capable of causing surface damage, but about the rag’s specific performance in relation to its absorbency, lint content, reaction to chemicals and so on. It means increased operative time is needed for sorting in order to check the rag, adapt and adjust to its performance rather than merely picking a woven or non-woven wiper with consistent qualities.

In research conducted by Northwood Hygiene Products it was shown that in many instances operatives believed that unless the wiper had sufficient bulk it could not and would not perform the wiping task as well as a piece of rag.

In response Northwood launched Resource Rag to provide a genuine alternative to white wiping rags. With all the expected quality wiper features of consistent size, chemical free and absorbent (up to six times its own weight!) with good strength wet or dry and low lint, it has the added benefit of being a true handful of a product, making it an even more realistic competitor to bags of rags.
