Selecting The Correct Wet Mop |
|
Construction |
Looped
End:
Looped ends add longer life and better performance to wet mops. Looped ends allow for an
open more absorbent twist that does not lint, fray or unravel. Ideal when a facility
wants to launder their wet mops. |
Cut End:
Popular because of their low initial cost. Functional and affordable, they are ideal for
almost any application from general mopping to applying finishes. |
Headbands:
Available in 1 1/4" and 5" widths. Extra stitching holds mop strands securely.
All headbands on looped end wet mops are color coded by size for quick identification of
inventory and department use separation. |
Tailbands:
Tailbands improve coverage control. They enable the mop to cover a wider path saving
time and labor. Tailbands prevent tangling and permit laundering. |

Yarn
Types |
Cotton:
Cotton fibers are popular because of their low initial cost, limited shrinkage and great
absorption. Cotton picks up 2 to 3 times its weight. We offer several piles of cotton each
designed for particular tasks from everyday mopping to highly abrasive surfaces. |
Rayon:
Rayon fibers have fast absorption. They are mildew resistant, lint less and dry fast. Rayon
is designed to pick up 6 to 7 times its weight but it has no retention capabilities and,
therefore, is an excellent finish mop. |
Blends:
Blends combine all the advantages of several different fibers to provide the ideal balance
of price, performance and appearance. Highly absorbent. Blends pick up and hold 6 to 7
times their weight. They require no break-in. |
Microfiber:
Deep cleaning using fewer cleaning chemicals and water. Extreme liquid and dirt pick up. Floors dry faster.
Non-streaking. Reduces bacteria by 96% compared to traditional mops. |
