Microfibre (also spelled Microfiber) is a very fine synthetic, man-made textile fibre.

By comparison, a microfibre thread can be more than twice as fine as a silk thread and more than 100 times finer than a human hair!  

To make microfibre suitable for use in cleaning products, the fibre is subjected to a splitting process. A unique blend of polyester (for absorbancy) and polyamide (for strength) is split and separated into multiple, wedge shaped strands which are then woven into cloth which features amazing softness, absorbancy, and incredible cleaning power. 

When used dry, these cloths can clean much more efficiently than traditional cloths because of the static charge of the shaped woven fibres.

When the cloth is damp, it uses capillary force to draw the dirt and moisture deep into the cloth.
