TL;DR: Swedish Dishcloths are 70% cellulose and 30% cotton. Wet under tap water until soft, wring out, and wipe surfaces like a sponge or paper towel. Pair with Universal Cleaner for benchtops and splashbacks, or Dishwashing Liquid for dishes.

What are Swedish Dishcloths made of?

Material
70% cellulose, 30% cotton. Plant-based fibres only. No synthetic plastics, no microfibre, no microplastic shedding. OEKO-TEX 100 certified for skin-safe materials.
What it replaces
One reusable cloth does the work of paper towels, single-use wipes, and synthetic sponges. Absorbs up to 15 times its own weight, scrubs benchtops, and polishes glass without streaks.
How do I use Swedish Dishcloths?
Three steps
Wet the cloth. Run under tap water until it softens.
Wring out. Squeeze out the excess water.
Wipe and rinse. Wipe surfaces, rinse and wring as you go.
Where it works
Benchtops, splashbacks, stovetops, sinks, appliances, glass, and spills. Soaks up liquid mess, wipes greasy splatter, and polishes streak-free.
