Micro-fiber is a single fiber with a thickness less than a human hair that has been split 16 times and woven into various products. The surface area of the micro-fiber product is increased over 15 times, creating millions of spaces between the fibers which trap dirt, grime or liquids, making this product one of the most absorbent materials. These āVā shaped splits, while less than a micron in size, have edges that collect debris as opposed to pushing debris away. The particles are trapped in between the fibers and can be rinsed or machine washed to release heavily embedded particles. Micro-fiber products can be washed up to 300+ times without losing cleaning and trapping abilities. Micro-fiber products save you labor time and additional costs of multiple cleaning products and chemicals.
