How to Use & Care For Swedish Dishcloths

Use Wet or Dry

Use Dry: for absorbing spills or scrubbing stubborn messes.

Use Wet/Damp: for wiping surfaces, cleaning dishes, dusting, and more.

Between Uses

After cleaning with Swedish dishcloths, simply rinse them, wring them out, and hang up to dry.

Washing Instructions

These dishcloths are easy to wash with multiple effective methods.

Washing Machine: Wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors. No fabric softeners or bleach.

Dishwasher: Place the dishcloths on the top rack during a wash cycle.

Microwave/Boiling: They can be boiled in a pot of water or microwaved in a bowl of water. We recommend boiling/microwaving for about 3 minutes.

Disposing of Cloths

When a dishcloth reaches the end of its lifespan, it can be composted.

The natural blend of cellulose and cotton materials will biodegrade in as little as 8 weeks* under ideal conditions.

A warm, damp environment with sufficient oxygen and diverse microbial activity helps improve biodegradability.

These environmental factors can influence how long it takes the cloth to degrade.

*Tested by an external institute in accordance with DIN EN ISO 11721-2:2003 and EN ISO 846.

Frequently asked questions

Find answers to your questions about our Swedish Dishcloths below. Still have questions? Our customer service is here to answer them!

What are Swedish dishcloths?

Swedish dishcloths are durable cleaning cloths with many different uses. They are a spongy, reusable alternative to traditional paper towels.

Each cloth is made from a blend of natural materials – 70% cotton and 30% cellulose. This blend creates a sturdy and absorbent cloth that can take the place of paper towels, standard kitchen sponges, and dish towels.

What surfaces can I use these cloths on?

Our dishcloths are safe to use on any surfaces including:

Countertops
Appliances
Dishes & Kitchenware
Glass
Mirrors & Windows
Marble & Stone
Wood
Tile & More

How do I wash a Swedish dish cloth?

Between uses, we recommend thoroughly rinsing the cloth, wringing it out, then hanging it to dry.

To fully wash these dishcloths, there are 3 different methods that you can use:

Washing Machine: To clean in a washing machine, run the cloths on a gentle wash cycle with similar colors. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners.

Dishwasher: You can put Swedish dishcloths on the top rack and run them with your dishes on a normal wash cycle.

Boil/Microwave: Boil a pot of water and place the cloth inside. Or you can pour a bowl of water and place the cloth in it, then microwave. We recommend boiling or microwaving the cloth for about 3 minutes.

How do I keep these dishcloths odor-free?

The best way to prevent odors from forming on Swedish dishcloths is to rinse them, wring them out, and hang them up to dry between uses. You can hang them over your faucet spout, the edge of your sink, or on a sink caddy.

Although Swedish dishcloths dry quickly and have some natural odor-resistant properties, leaving them wet between uses can cause odors.

Are these cloths biodegradable?

Yes! The 70% cotton 30% cellulose materials are biodegradable in as little as 8 weeks* in an ideal environment.

Environmental conditions play a large factor in how quickly the dishcloths will biodegrade.

For composting, warm, moist areas with adequate oxygen supply can help improve the biodegradability. The existing microbial environment in your compost can also affect how quickly the cloth breaks down.

Horrible and terrible

Ibrahim – January 29, 2026

I have no words, I’m so frustrated that this literally did nothing to improve my cleaning abilities. They are marketed to be magic, but they are not better than everyday paper towels or washcloths. Will not buy again
