Norwex HistoryNorwex "clean without chemicals" began in Norway in 1994, soon after microfiber was first manufactured in Sweden. Norwex entered the home party market in Norway in 1995 and the business grew quickly. The Canadian branch of Norwex was founded in 1998 by Debbie Bolton. In the spring of 1999 Norwex expanded the US and expanded their business and product line to include personal care without chemicals. Norwex Mission:The Norwex Mission is to improve human life by radically reducing the use of chemicals in cleaning and personal care.

Norwex is committed to radically reducing the use of chemicals in cleaning and personal care to promote health and to reduce the risk of poisoning and disease. More and more we are strongly emphasizing the positive environmental impact of reducing chemical use. Over the past several hundred years, human activity has significantly altered our global environment, and the negative effects of this are becoming alarmingly clear. We cannot ignore the warning signs from nature any longer. This negative trend can be changed if we all work together and take honest responsibilty for our planet. It is a fact; household pollutants negatively impact our environment. A radical reduction in the use of chemicals is an important step to improve the health of our planet and our quality of life.

Our deep central theme is reverence for the value and beauty of all life on a healthy planet. Join us in our effort to improve quality of life in a profound way. What is Microfiber?Microfiber is the perfect blend of polyester and polyamide. This fiber is 1/100th the size of a strand of human hair. When this high quality microfiber is combined with the right knitting process it creates an extremely effective cleaning material. This material can hold up to seven times its weight in water. Unlike many other types of cloths that smear dirt across the surface you are trying to clean, the microfiber cloths act like bionic sponges removing the dirt and bacteria to leave you with a clean, highly polished surface.
What are the benefits of cleaning with microfiber?Microfiber cloths are environmentally friendly. They can reduce the consumption of cleaning chemicals in your home up to 90% while at the same time cutting down your exposure to toxic fumes. This can make a big difference for anyone with allergies and chemical sensitivities. In important areas of our home like bathrooms and kitchens, microfiber cloths remove 99% of the bacteria from surfaces, resulting in a cleaner, healthier environment. Microfiber cloths are very durable. They are widely used in commercial cleaning environments and can withstand the rigors of everyday use. What is antibacterial microfiber?Our new Antibacterial Microfiber is the most innovative product in the industry! Norwex has developed a unique technology that combines an antibacterial silver-based agent with our microfiber. The antibacterial agent is actually embedded inside the tiny microfiber, so when the cloth is used to clean surfaces, it will remove 99.9% of the bacteria on that surface, and destroy that bacteria after a few hours. The Antibacterial agent within the Microfiber demonstrates its effectiveness against strains of pathogenic bacteria, yeast and viruses, for example:
How are microfiber cloths used?Microfiber cloths can be used wet or dry. Dry: The static effect when using microfiber dry enhances the ability to attract dirt and dust particles. As you lightly wipe the surface, the microfiber attracts and draws up even the smallest particles of dust, trapping them in the fibers until the cloths are laundered. Wet: The microfibers work together to give an excellent cleaning effect. Moisten with clean water and wipe away grease, chalk, impurities and bacteria from all washable surfaces. For spot removing, spray water on the surface being cleaned. How to use the window cloth: On less dirty surfaces, spray water on the surface and polish with the dry window cloth. For extra dirty surfaces, clean the surface with a wet enviro cloth first, then use the window cloth to dry and polish. Caring for your microfiber productsTo save the environment and reduce the use of detergents, we suggest that slightly dirty cloths and mops be washed with a little dish detergent under warm running water and used again before laundering. Use our Rubber Brush to remove dirt and debris from the mops between launderings. Launder microfiber cloths with other lint-free laundry. Do not use bleach or fabric softener on microfiber. Bleach and fabric softeners destroy the product's ability to clean effectively. Use only detergent without bleach additives to clean our products. The Norwex Ultra Power Plus Lanudry Detergent is the perfect choice for norwex cloths and all your laundry. |
