Cleaning cloths made from double terry cloth are used to disinfect surfaces, absorb liquids and ensure a sterile environment. The two layers of towelling bonded together give the fabric exceptional absorbency and durability, making it ideal for use in hygienically sensitive areas. Additional applications include wiping cloths and gloves for sensitive surfaces, particularly in the automotive industry. The use of antistatic yarns also opens up further application possibilities in the electronics sector.

Material properties of double terry cloth:

  • High absorbency: thanks to the double layer, double terry towelling can absorb considerable amounts of liquid, which significantly increases its effectiveness in cleaning tasks.

  • Soft surface: despite its robustness, double terry towelling remains pleasantly soft and gentle on the skin, which is a particular advantage when cleaning sensitive surfaces.

  • Durability: the double structure ensures an extended service life of the material, even with frequent use and intensive cleaning

The “Terrot I3P 196”, a high-system interlock and fine rib circular knitting machine that enables high production output, is particularly suitable for the production of double terry. It guarantees precise and uniform production, resulting in consistently high quality cleaning cloths. The circular knitting process also ensures cost-efficient production of the knitted fabric.
