Disposable microfibre cloths help prevent cross-transmission between cleaning areas. Each HYGEN™ disposable microfibre cloth is colour-coded to assign a different colour to each area or task. This system removes the risk of carrying germs from one surface to another. Because each cloth is single-use, there is no risk of bacteria surviving a laundry cycle and re-contaminating surfaces. Single-use disposable application makes HYGEN™ microfibre cloths ideal for high-risk cleaning areas where environmental hygiene is critical, such as hospitals, aged care facilities and infection prevention programmes.
Healthcare-associated infections remain a serious risk in hospitals and residential aged care. Removing dead microbes from surfaces eliminates the food source for live pathogens, which is a critical step in breaking the chain of infection. HYGEN™ disposable microfibre cloths have been tested against common pathogens by an independent third party. The results confirm that these microfibre cloths remove 99.9% of tested viruses and bacteria with water alone. For facilities with no access to commercial laundry, disposable microfibre is a practical and efficient option. Stock cloths on your cleaning cart and replace them after each room or area to reduce cross-contamination.
Compatible with common disinfectants, including Quat (does not bind), Chlorine Bleach and Hydrogen Peroxide

Yes. Disposable microfibre cloths remove the risk of bacteria surviving a laundry cycle and being transferred to the next surface. Each HYGEN™ disposable microfibre cloth is used once and discarded, ensuring every application starts with a clean, uncontaminated item. This makes disposable microfibre cloths the preferred choice for high-risk cleaning areas in hospitals, aged care and food service environments where cross-contamination must be avoided.
HYGEN™ disposable microfibre cloths are effective on a wide range of surfaces. Use them for wet cleaning benchtops, tables and medical equipment, or for dusting shelves, ledges and window sills. They also provide streak-free results on glass, mirrors and stainless steel. The built-in zigzag scrubbers help remove stubborn dirt from hard floors and VCT surfaces without scratching.
HYGEN™ disposable microfibre cloths are compatible with common disinfectants. They work effectively with Quat-based solutions (and do not bind with Quat, unlike many reusable cloths), chlorine bleach and hydrogen peroxide. While these microfibre cloths have been proven to remove 99.9% of tested viruses and bacteria with water alone, pairing them with a disinfectant adds a chemical-kill step for facilities that require it.
Colour-coded disposable microfibre cloths assign a specific colour to each cleaning area or task. For example, blue cloths can be designated for general cleaning, red for bathrooms and dirty utility rooms, green for food preparation areas and yellow for infectious isolation zones. This system prevents germs from spreading between areas and supports infection-prevention protocols in commercial and healthcare settings.
Hospitals choose disposable microfibre cloths because they eliminate the risk of cross-contamination. Reusable cloths can harbour bacteria if not laundered correctly, which contributes to healthcare-associated infections. HYGEN™ disposable microfibre cloths are discarded after a single use, so every surface is cleaned with a fresh cloth. They also work without harsh chemicals, making them safer for patients with sensitivities. For facilities without on-site laundry, disposable microfibre is the most practical and efficient product available.
