Why Do We Knit?

100% Cotton

A lot of consumers want 100% cotton rags. However, this is really what they receive because textiles today are poly/cotton blends. There are certain applications that are extremely important that the 100% cotton meets the spec. For example, if a gas company is wiping down a gas line and the rag contains a % of polyester, it could create static electricity and a possible explosion.

Our 100% cotton “STB” meets that necessary requirement.

Consistent Sizes

Tubular rolls of knit can be cut to specific sizes. This gives us the ability to ensure your rags are as expected and never too small or too large.

Rags that Absorb

All new textiles are non-absorbent to water — yes absorbency is critical for most wiping applications. We operate our own industrial laundry that is designed specifically to produce super-absorbent rags. We call this process “PFA” (Processed for Absorbency)

Once our rags go through the PFA process, they are “Simply the Best” rags available in the market today!

Quality

The majority of rags are produced from pre and post-consumer waste. This makes the supply extremely vulnerable to disruption. Our in-house knitting operation provides assurance that we will always have quantities available to you.
