MicroRoll is the latest addition to Vileda Professional’s microfibre cloth range, a 100% microfibre, disposable wipe - on a roll.

Independent tests on MicroRoll have proved that it in just one wipe it achieves over 99.9% reduction of both C.Diff and MRSA bacteria - without the need to use any chemicals. What’s more it delivers the same low linting, streak free cleaning performance as Vileda’s Quickstar Micro durable microfibre cloths.

MicroRoll can be used as a disposable in hygiene sensitive areas or can be machine washed up to five times. Available in five colours, each MicroRoll contains110 perforated cloths measuring 35cm x 25cm. The rolls can be incorporated on Vileda’s Origo trolley so they can be carried around easily when working in a number of different areas.

We are all trying to cut down on the amount of waste we produce as the environmental message hits home. So how can we prevent the over-consumption of disposable wipers in the industrial workplace? SCA Tissue Europe’s Mark Riley explains how an efficient dispensing system can reduce waste wipers - and costs - in the workshop.

An increasing number of companies these days are showing a renewed respect for the environment. They are urging their employees to recycle wherever possible, they are saving energy where they can and they are also striving to reduce the amount of waste produced on their premises.

New from Tork are compact packs of Tork Premium 530, 520 and 510 multipurpose cloths. These 32cm x 39cm wipers are designed for cleaning, wiping and polishing tasks in environments such as manufacturing, food industry and office cleaning.

The new format is ideal for mobile engineers and smaller workstations where there is insufficient space for a wall-mounted dispenser. Each pack gives out only one cloth at a time to control consumption, and the plastic wrapping of the packs helps to prevent product contamination.
