Norwex Microfiber Cloths vs Others

People often ask what the difference is between Norwex Microfiber Cloths and the ones you can buy elsewhere for a fraction of the price.

Quality is the biggest difference. Norwex Microfiber is the perfect blend of polyester and polyamide. The fibers are 1/100th the size of a strand of human hair, and 2.9 million meters of microfiber is used to make one small Enviro Cloth. When this high quality Microfiber is combined with the right knitting process, it creates an extremely effective cleaning cloth that has the ability to hold up to seven times its weight in water. Unlike many other types of cloths that smear dirt across the surface being cleaned, our Microfiber cloths act like bionic sponges, removing the dirt and bacteria to leave a clean, highly-polished surface. 

A comparative example is the thread count of bed sheets - a thread count of 180 is a nice set of sheets; however, 600-thread count sheets are higher quality, feel softer and last longer than sheets with a lower thread count. A good test for the amount of microfiber in a cloth, and consequently the cloth quality, is a stretch test – the easier a microfiber cloth stretches the less actual microfiber in the cloth. Norwex cloths have very little stretch.

Another advantage to Norwex Microfiber is the antibacterial properties that make our cloths one of the most innovative products in the industry! The unique technology imbeds a silver-based agent inside each microfiber strand that results in germ-killing, ionic activity. In independent testing, Norwex Antibac Microfiber has been proven to be effective against strains of pathogenic bacteria, yeast and viruses.

A third major advantage is the Norwex two-year warranty.
