1. HOW LONG DO THE SPRUCE CLOTHS LAST?
These high quality patented Swedish Dishcloths will last over 200+ washes, and 12 months of use around your home.
2. ARE SPRUCE AS EFFECTIVE AS OTHER CLOTHS?
Absolutely! The texture of the cloth is soft, and super absorbent. They hold 20 x their weight in liquid.
Wipes like a dream and soaks up spills and crumbs with ease. Easy to wring out and quick drying. They are safe on all different surfaces and much loved by kitchen companies for their bench tops to stainless steel to glassware.
Thicker cotton or knitted cloths can take a long time to dry resulting in bacteria flourishing in that wet environment. AND no microplastics compared to microfibre cloths and plastic sponges!
3. WHY SHOULD I USE A HANK?
It’s estimated we blow our nose 1233 times a year and overuse tissues for many tasks on top of that. The result - the waste of virgin trees towards a single use product. Add in the fact tissues are full of chemicals, can’t be composted or recycled. HANK replace wasteful tissue and serviette use. Blowing your nose is only 1 of 99 jobs a HANK can do. For people who have allergies, a tissue can aggravate their skin and sinuses. Think of all the fluff that comes out of a tissue box, and learn in our BLOG here about the chemicals hidden in your everyday tissue.
4. DO YOU DESIGN ALL YOUR OWN PRODUCTS?
Yes. All our product ideas are created in our workshop in Nelson. We manufacture all our bags locally, and keep our printing, packaging and shipping as local and sustainable as possible. Our textiles are imported from Sweden and India as none of our materials are made / available in New Zealand.
