Nevertheless, we see the same mistakes in practice time and time again: incorrect use, no clean separation of the cloths - and therefore unnecessary spread of germs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Time for a proper categorisation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why microfibre at all?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Microfibre cloths consist of extremely fine fibres (usually polyester\/polyamide), which:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Pick up dirt mechanically instead of spreading it<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dissolve grease without aggressive chemicals<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Efficiently bind liquid<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Clean surfaces gently<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>When used correctly, microfibre significantly reduces the use of chemicals. This makes economic and ecological sense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But microfibre is not a magic cloth. The effect depends on technique and systematics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Colour separation - not a detail, but a hygiene standard<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The colour coding serves to clearly separate areas of use. It prevents cross-contamination - particularly important in offices, sanitary areas or medical facilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A tried and tested scheme:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Red<\/strong> \u2192 WC, urinal, direct ceramic sanitary ware<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Yellow<\/strong> \u2192 Washbasin, tiles in the sanitary area<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Blue<\/strong> \u2192 Office, surfaces, furniture<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Green<\/strong> \u2192 Kitchen or general areas (depending on the system)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Important: The system only works if it is consistently adhered to. A blue cloth in the toilet area cancels out the entire logic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Typical errors in practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Cloths are used across all areas<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>No clear training for employees<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Improper washing (fabric softener destroys the fibre structure)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Too wet application - microfibre works best when damp<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The washing process in particular is often underestimated. Fabric softener sticks the fibres together - then the cloth just pushes the dirt in front of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Economic advantage through systematics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Clean colour separation means:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fewer complaints<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Greater hygiene safety<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Consistent cleaning quality<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Longer service life of textiles<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In short: structure saves money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Microfibre and colour separation are not a trend. They are a professional standard - if they are implemented correctly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The technology is well known. It's the discipline that makes the difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Putzvogel GmbH - Cleanliness with a system.<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mikrofaser &amp; Farbentrennung \u2013 Bew\u00e4hrte Technik, oft falsch umgesetzt Mikrofaser ist seit Jahren Standard in der professionellen Reinigung.
