These aren't your average disposables. The Jantex HT492 cloths have a satisfying weight and texture that just works, grabbing dirt instead of pushing it around.

- Con: Not machine washable; designed for heavy use and hygienic disposal.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Salty Squid, a popular fish and chip shop in Brighton, was struggling with standard cloths that couldn't handle the grease and were disintegrating mid-shift, leading to waste and frustration.
“We made the switch to the Jantex HT492 blue cloths and the difference was immediate. They are incredibly tough, they cut through the grease brilliantly, and a single cloth easily lasts an entire service. It’s a small change that has made our end-of-day clean-up so much faster.”
Robert Davies – Owner
The move resulted in their weekly cloth consumption being cut by over 40% and improved staff satisfaction with the cleaning process.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Unpack and store in a clean, dry dispenser or container for easy, hygienic access.
- Assign the blue colour to a specific cleaning zone (e.g., general front-of-house surfaces) to support your HACCP or colour-coding plan.
- For best results, give a new cloth a quick rinse under warm water before its first use to 'activate' the fibres and maximise absorbency.
Keeping It Going
- Rinse thoroughly with warm water after each major use to remove food debris and grease.
- These are heavy-duty disposable cloths; replace once they become heavily soiled or begin to show signs of wear.
- Avoid using with harsh, neat bleach, as it can degrade the fabric and the anti-bacterial treatment over time.
- Allow cloths to air dry between uses where possible to prolong their effective life during a shift.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these cloths machine washable?
A: No, these are designed as single-use or single-shift disposable cloths to ensure maximum hygiene and convenience. They should be discarded when heavily soiled.
Q: What exactly does 'non-woven' mean?
A: It means the fibres are chemically and thermally bonded together rather than woven into a thread. This process makes the material stronger, more absorbent, and less likely to leave behind lint.
Q: How big are the individual cloths?
A: Each cloth measures a generous 490mm x 380mm (49cm x 38cm), providing excellent coverage for cleaning large surfaces like tables and countertops.
Q: Can I use these with my usual brand of sanitiser?
A: Yes, absolutely. These cloths are durable and designed to be used with all standard commercial-grade sanitisers, disinfectants, and multi-purpose cleaners.
Q: How many cloths are in a pack?
A: Each pack contains 25 heavy duty Jantex HT492 cleaning cloths.
Q: Is the blue colour significant?
A: Yes, the blue colour is widely used in the catering industry for general, low-risk cleaning, helping you maintain a clear and effective colour-coded hygiene system.
Q: Are they suitable for food preparation areas?
A: Yes, they are perfect for wiping down and cleaning food prep surfaces as part of a regular, robust hygiene procedure.
Q: Do they absorb greasy spills well?
A: Yes, the viscose and polyester blend is highly effective at absorbing both water-based spills and greasy residue from cooking.

Explore more from JantexMore Than Just Clean: How Anti-Bacterial Properties Protect Your Kitchen
You often see 'anti-bacterial' on cleaning products, but what does it really mean for a cloth? It's not about the cloth killing germs on your counter; it's about preventing the cloth itself from becoming a science experiment. The fibres in these Jantex cloths are treated to inhibit the growth of bacteria *within the fabric*. This is crucial in a warm, damp kitchen environment where germs can multiply rapidly.
Think of it like this: a normal damp cloth left on the side can become a breeding ground for germs, developing unpleasant odours and spreading contamination every time you use it. It's like having a tiny, unwanted petri dish in your kitchen. These anti-bacterial cloths, however, make the fabric an inhospitable place for bacteria to thrive. This means they stay fresher and more hygienic for longer between rinses, giving you an extra, unseen layer of food safety protection.
