FAQ
Q1: Are your cleaning gloves reusable and eco-friendly?
A: Yes! Most of our cleaning gloves are reusable and made with eco-friendly materials (latex-free silicone, recycled polyester) that are durable and reduce single-use plastic waste. They are dishwasher-safe (top rack) for easy cleaning and can be reused hundreds of times with proper care. We also offer a small line of disposable gloves made with compostable materials for specialized cleaning tasks (e.g., handling harsh chemicals).
Q2: What types of surfaces are your wipers suitable for?
A: Our wipers are designed for multi-surface use, with different options for specific cleaning needs:
- Microfiber Wipers: Gentle on glass, mirrors, stainless steel, and hardwood floors; ideal for dusting and light spills.
- Sponge Wipers: Perfect for scrubbing kitchen counters, bathroom tiles, and sinks; absorbent and durable for heavy-duty cleaning.
-
Lint-Free Wipers: Designed for glass and electronic screens (e.g., phone, TV); leave no streaks or residue.
Product pages list specific surface compatibility details, and our support team can recommend the best wiper for your needs.
Q3: Do your brooms work well on pet hair?
A: Yes! We offer a specialized pet hair broom with electrostatic bristles that attract and trap pet hair, dust, and lint from carpets, hardwood floors, and upholstery. The bristles are flexible enough to reach into carpet fibers and tight corners, and the broom comes with a built-in squeegee edge for cleaning spills on hard floors. Regular brooms (with dense bristle packs) also work well for pet hair on hard surfaces.
Q4: Are your products safe for use in homes with kids and pets?
A: Yes! All our products comply with CPSC safety standards and Prop 65 regulations:
- Broom handles have rounded edges and non-slip grips to prevent accidental injuries.
- Cleaning gloves are made with non-toxic, latex-free materials that are safe for kids to handle (supervision recommended for young children).
- Wipers are free of harsh chemicals and dyes, safe for use on high-touch surfaces (e.g., toy boxes, pet bowls) that kids and pets interact with daily.
We recommend storing cleaning tools out of reach of young children and pets when not in use.
Q5: Do you offer bulk discounts for businesses or organizations?

Q6: How should I care for my broom to maximize its lifespan?
A: Follow these care tips to keep your broom clean and durable:
- Shake off excess dust and debris after each use to prevent bristle clogs.
- Rinse bristles with warm water (and mild soap if needed) for deep cleaning; air dry completely before storing.
- Store the broom upright (bristles facing up) to prevent bending and mold growth.
- Avoid using the broom on wet surfaces for extended periods (except for models labeled "waterproof").
- Replace the broom when bristles become loose, frayed, or ineffective at picking up debris.
