What is Ultra Pro Bathroom Mitt made of?Updated an hour ago
TL;DR: Ultra Pro Bathroom Mitt has two specialised microfibre faces (a 600 GSM plush lather side and a 500 GSM ground-yarn scrub side), a 4mm water-resistant PU foam lining backed with tricot, and an elasticated knit cuff. It's a mixed synthetic build, so it isn't kerbside recyclable. Maximise its lifespan with the right wash routine, then give it a second life on grout or outdoor jobs before disposal.
What is Ultra Pro Bathroom Mitt made of?
✓ Lather side
600 GSM plush microfibre weave. 70% polyester, 15% polyamide, 15% polypropylene. Designed to whip Bathroom and Shower Cleaner into rich foam and dry quickly between uses.
✓ Scrub and buff side
500 GSM ground-yarn blend. 75% polyester, 25% polyamide. Striped texture for extra bite on soap scum and mineral deposits without scratching tiles, glass, or enamel.
✓ Water-resistant lining
4mm PU foam panel bonded to tricot fabric on the inside of the mitt. Keeps your hand dry during heavy scrubbing or extended use under running water.
✓ Elasticated cuff
Elasticated knit that hugs the wrist so the mitt stays put during scrubbing. Better control and less water running down your arm.
Made in South Korea to Koh's spec.
Why does each side use different materials?
✓ Built around the bathroom job
The plush lather side maximises soft contact with wet surfaces so cleaner foams up quickly and lifts grime gently. The firmer striped scrub side grips soap scum and mineral deposits without scratching tiles, glass, or enamel. The 4mm PU foam lining stops water soaking through to your hand, and the elasticated cuff locks the mitt in place for control during a full shower clean. One tool, two textures, both non-scratch.
Can Ultra Pro Bathroom Mitt be recycled?
⚠ Not kerbside recyclable
Multiple synthetic fibres (polyester, polyamide, polypropylene) bonded to a PU foam lining make this a mixed-material product. Most kerbside programs only accept single-material textiles, so the mitt goes in general waste at end of life.
✓ Maximise lifespan, find a second life
Machine wash on a cool cycle with Sensitive Laundry Liquid and non-linting items only (no cotton towels). Skip the bleach and fabric softener. Air-dry where possible. When the mitt is past prime for bathrooms, retire it to grout scrubbing, outdoor furniture, or garden jobs before disposal.
Dual-sided microfibre and scrub mitt with glove-style fit and water-resistant lining. Made in South Korea.
