What is Ultra Pro Cloth made from?

Ultra Pro Cloth is a 1000 GSM microfibre blend, 80% polyester and 20% polyamide, knitted in a twisted loop-cut circular weave and sized approximately 30 by 30 cm. The edge is bound with faux suede to stop fraying, and the cloth is treated with nano-silver for antibacterial and deodorising properties. It absorbs more than 11 times its weight in water.

✓ Edge and treatment

Faux-suede binding stops the edges fraying without risking scratches on glass or polished stainless steel. A nano-silver treatment gives the cloth antibacterial and deodorising properties, so it stays fresher between washes.

✓ Why these choices

The dense loop-cut pile maximises surface area for liquid uptake and dust trapping, which is what drives the high absorbency. The nano-silver treatment keeps the cloth fresher for longer between washes, useful on high-use cleaning days.


How absorbent is Ultra Pro Cloth?

Ultra Pro Cloth absorbs more than 11 times its own weight in water. The dense 1000 GSM loop-cut pile pulls liquid into the fibres and holds it, which is why it leaves benchtops, mirrors, and stainless steel streak-free. If the cloth drags instead of glides, the surface is too dry, so add a little more cleaner or water to lubricate the pile.

✓ More than 11 times its weight in water

It absorbs more than 11 times its weight in water. The 1000 GSM loop-cut pile pulls liquid into the fibres and holds it there, which is why it leaves benchtops, mirrors, and stainless steel streak-free in a single wipe.

✓ Pro tip: keep it gliding

If the cloth feels like it's dragging instead of gliding, the surface is too dry. Apply a little more Universal Cleaner or water and the loop pile will grip and move smoothly. Microfibre needs liquid to lubricate, not soak.

Add product Lubricate, don't soak

Universal Cleaner

The everyday all-rounder. The all-purpose pairing for everyday surfaces around the home.

Bathroom and Shower Cleaner

Wet-area soap scum and limescale. Pair for streak-free glass and polished tapware.

Kitchen Grease and Oil Cleaner

Stove-top, range hood, and cabinet grease. The cloth absorbs the foam and leaves no streaks.


How do I wash and care for Ultra Pro Cloth?

Wash it before first use to unlock full absorbency. Machine wash with a mild liquid detergent free of dyes, fragrances, bleach, and softeners. Wash with non-linting materials only, no cotton, and wash darks separately for the first few washes to limit dye bleed. Tumble dry low and do not iron. Never use fabric softener, since it clogs the microfibre and reduces absorbency.

✓ Good habits

1

Wash before first use. Microfibre ships with a light protective finish. A first wash unlocks full absorbency.

2

Mild detergent only. Machine wash with a mild liquid detergent free of dyes, fragrances, bleach, and softeners, like Sensitive Laundry Liquid or Sensitive Laundry Sheets.

3

Wash darks separately for the first few washes to limit dye bleeding onto lighter cloths.

4

Tumble dry low. Do not iron. Wash with non-linting fabrics only.

⚠ Avoid

Fabric softener coats the fibres and reduces absorbency. Bleach breaks down the weave. Cotton sheds lint that the microfibre will grab. High heat and ironing damage the loop pile permanently.

No fabric softener No bleach No cotton wash No iron
