Dust cloths have traditionally been made of cotton, and used with an oil- or water-based treatment to improve dust retention. Microfiber dust cloths are made from extremely thin synthetic fibers that are more absorbent than cotton, non-abrasive, lint-free, and generate an electrostatic charge that attracts and retains dust to reduce the need for treatment. Dust cloths are sometimes attached to the frame of a dust mop or hand tool to extend their reach. Polymer Group manufactures engineered nonwoven materials under the brands Chicopee and MediSoft, among others. The company, founded in 1992, is headquartered in Charlotte, NC.
