Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The team at 'The Northern Pie Co.' in Sheffield needed to streamline their cleaning process. Their old cloths were falling apart when used with sanitisers, creating more waste and slowing down their end-of-day clean-down.
"We were constantly having to double-up on cloths just to get a surface properly clean without them tearing. The Jantex wipes are in a different league. They're tough, they absorb everything, and they just make the whole process less of a faff. Proper job."
Robert Miller – Owner
By switching to Jantex HT491 cloths, the bakery reduced its daily cloth consumption by nearly 60% and made their cleaning routine significantly more efficient.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Store the pack in a clean, dry area away from chemicals to keep the cloths pristine until use.
- Assign your green cloths exclusively for kitchen and food preparation zones to maintain a strict colour-coding system.
- For maximum efficiency, place open packs within easy reach of key work stations.
Keeping It Going
- For optimal hygiene, treat as a single-use item and dispose of after each major cleaning task.
- Rinse the cloth with clean water if moving between similar surfaces to prevent smearing dirt.
- Avoid direct contact with very hot elements, like oven interiors or active hobs, to prevent damage.
- Keep an eye on stock levels to ensure your team is never caught short during a busy service.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these cloths suitable for food contact surfaces?
A: Yes, they are perfect for wiping down food preparation surfaces, chopping boards, and kitchen equipment as part of a regular cleaning schedule.
Q: What does 'non-woven' actually mean?
A: It means the fibres are heat-bonded or pressed together, not woven like traditional fabric. This process makes them stronger, more resistant to tearing, and lint-free.
Q: Can I wash and reuse these cloths?
A: For maximum hygiene in a commercial setting, we strongly recommend them for single-use. They are designed for durability during one cleaning session, not for machine washing.
Q: Will they leave streaks or lint on stainless steel?
A: No, the non-woven construction ensures they are virtually lint-free, making them great for leaving surfaces clean and clear.
Q: How do they perform with sanitisers and cleaning sprays?
A: They are made from a polyester/viscose blend that is highly resistant to standard cleaning chemicals and sanitisers, so they won't break down during use.
Q: Why are they green?
A: Green is the industry-standard colour for cloths used in kitchen and food service areas, helping staff easily identify the right cloth for the job and prevent cross-contamination.
Q: How many cloths are in a pack?
A: Each pack contains 25 individual Jantex HT491 cleaning cloths.
Q: Are they absorbent enough for spills?
A: Absolutely. The viscose content in the material blend gives them excellent absorbency for tackling spills on worktops and floors quickly.

Explore more from JantexWhy a Viscose/Polyester Blend Matters
Ever wondered what makes a good cleaning cloth? It's all in the blend. Think of it like a specialist tag team. In these non-woven cleaning wipes, polyester is the tough guy; its synthetic fibres provide incredible strength and tear resistance, so the cloth won't fall apart when you're scrubbing a stubborn spill. But polyester on its own isn't very absorbent. That's where its partner, viscose, comes in. Viscose is derived from natural wood pulp and acts like a sponge, drawing in and holding onto liquid effectively. By blending them (70% polyester for strength, 30% viscose for thirst), Jantex has created a cloth that's both tough enough for commercial use and absorbent enough to clean efficiently in one go.
Who Should Buy This?

- Cafés & Bakeries: Ideal for daily clean-ups of coffee machines, display cases, and kitchen surfaces.
- Schools & Care Facilities: A must-have for colour-coded cleaning systems in canteens and kitchens to protect vulnerable individuals.
- Mobile Caterers: A reliable and compact cleaning essential for maintaining hygiene standards in a food truck or trailer.
