Description
The Cose Nuove Swedish Dishcloth features the "Snowman and Stuga" design by Swedish artist Katarina Hamilton. This highly absorbent, reusable cloth is a sustainable household cleaning tool and a fantastic alternative to paper towels and sponges.
Material and Construction
- Composition: Made from 100% natural materials: 70% wood cellulose and 30% cotton.
- Origin: Designed, manufactured, and printed in Sweden using water-soluble, environmentally friendly inks.
- Dimensions: The cloth measures 7 7/8 inches by 6 5/8 inches (20 cm x 17 cm).
Performance and Use
- Absorbency: It can absorb up to 15 times its own dry weight, allowing one cloth to replace up to 17 rolls of paper towels over its lifespan.
- Texture: Soft and pliable when wet for scratch-free cleaning. It becomes firm when dry, which allows it to air-dry quickly and helps prevent odor-causing bacteria.
- Durability: Designed for extended use, this cloth can be washed and reused over 200 times.
Care and Longevity
Proper care extends the cloth's life. For cleaning and sanitizing, you can choose several methods:
- Washing Machine: Launder with regular loads at temperatures up to 194°F (90°C).
- Dishwasher: Place on the top rack of your dishwasher for a sanitizing cycle.
- Boiling: For a quick sterilization, boil the cloth in water for one minute.
Sustainability
This dishcloth is a fully sustainable product from creation to disposal.
- Reusable: Its long-lasting nature significantly reduces waste from single-use paper towels and sponges.
- Biodegradable: At the end of its useful life, the cloth is 100% biodegradable and compostable, breaking down in approximately 6-8 weeks.
