These Swedish Dishcloths are made from the same sustainable material as Lindquist's original invention in the same eco-friendly manufacturing process. They are 70% sustainably sourced cellulose from forests and 30% organic cotton. The material is certified by international organizations to ensure a positive environmental impact, combining wood pulp from Forest Stewardship Council certified forests with organic cotton that is free from harmful chemicals (GOTS and OEKO-TEX Standard 100-certified). All are 100% natural, biodegradable, and printed with eco-friendly water-based inks. How Do They Work? Replaces Sponges & Paper Towels - Each dishcloth replaces 17 rolls of paper towels (saving money and reducing waste)! - Absorbs 20 times its weight. - Is more hygienic than a sponge and won't crumble or pill. - Is sturdier than a paper towel and won't easily fall apart. - Air dries quickly, preventing bacteria growth and mold
