The rag revolution
Published: 23 June, 2017
NORTHWOOD HYGIENE PRODUCTS says its Resource Rag continues to challenge long held beliefs that using bags of rags is more than adequate for most wiping needs. The company reports well-known and forward thinking lift manufacturer, Stannah is the latest major company to conduct trials comparing the two options and Resource Rag was an immediate success with wastage halved.
Northwood says effective dispensing of the individual wiper from the cleverly designed box and the consistent performance of each wiper in use ensured reduced usage without loss of effectiveness and the durability and versatility of the wiper was far superior to the recycled rags, proving to be a much more cost-effective option.
