HOW TO:
USE 8 SIDED fOLD wITH MICROfIBER CLOTHS
TIPS
• Color coding can help prevent cross
transmission
• Assign each color to a specific area
or task:
- Yellow: Bathrooms
- Blue: General Wet Cleaning
- Red: Hazardous/High Risk Areas
- Green: Dry Dusting
- Light Blue: Glass
• Do not over saturate cloths
PROCEDURE
Using the 8-sided fold approach to cleaning with
a Rubbermaid HYGEN™ Microfiber Cloth ensures that you get the
benefits of maximum effectiveness and productivity.
Cleaning with a fresh portion of your Rubbermaid HYGEN™
Microfiber Cloth as you move from surface to surface is your surest
method of reducing cross-transmission, where contaminants
picked up from one surface can potentially be re-deposited on the
next surface.
1
Fold your clean Rubbermaid HYGEN™ Microfiber Cloth in half, and then in half again,
resulting in a square-shaped pad with 4 layers of cloth. Each layer has two sides, for a
total of 8 sides.
As you clean, keep track of the side with which you are cleaning. By turning the cloth
over to the opposite side, you have a fresh cleaning surface.
Once the front and back of your folded square pad have been used, open the cloth to
expose two fresh surfaces, then refold so that those surfaces are exposed as front and
back of your folded pad.
When those surfaces have been used, you will have utilized all 4 quarters of a single
side of the cloth. Opening the cloth entirely, and refold, with the used surfaces folded
to the inside, and fresh, unused surfaces to the outside.
Repeating steps 2 and 3, you will utilize all 8 of the clean quarters of your microfiber
cloth.
