The Future of Cleaning

I really believe high quality Microfiber, already popular in Europe, is the future of cleaning.  I'm hoping the U.S. will break its addiction to artificial chemical smells and a unique concoction of pesticides for every cleaning job.  Microfiber & water have been proven time and again to pack a punch cleaning while sparing your health and pocketbook.

Here's a cool news story on the green cleaning technology, Norwex.  Unfortunately this consultant was not properly informed about what can be claimed about Norwex.   The results however line up with other research published in scientific studies.

To be clear the studies I've read contradict Fisher's sentiments. Silver does not help remove bacteria.  As she said initially, it is antimicrobial.  The studies have shown that it is the quality of the microfiber that determines effectiveness of removing bacteria.  Fisher also has not qualified her claims about whether bacteria and viruses were killed within the cloth, as far as we know, she did not test the cloth. Or if she did, she should have certainly shared the results.

However, the test was for effectiveness and the results speak to that for themselves.
