What are the different ways to use a Spruce Swedish dishcloth in the kitchen?

 

Our dishcloths are our top selling product, and here are 8 reasons why ... and this is just the kitchen!
1. Soak Up Spills
2. Dry Wet Dishes
3. Clean Appliances
4. Meal Napkins
5. Non-slip Mat
6. Messy Eaters?
7. Clean Counter Tops
8. Keep Produce Fresh

1. Soak Up Spills

STOP - don't reach for a wad of paper-towels to clean up that spilt milk, broken egg, toast crumbs. SPRUCE is the thirstiest dishcloth on the market.

When wet it transforms from a thin board to a mighty, super absorbing cloth. It can hold 20 x its weight in liquids & catch crumbs amongst the textured surface.


2. Dry Wet Dishes

Do your plates come out of the dishwasher wet? Cup ends filled with dishwater that spills over everything else?
Use a SPRUCE to wipe dry before storing away.

3. Clean Appliances

Think oven, toaster, fridge and stovetop.
Our cloths have superior abrasion / scouring resistance.
Streak free stainless steel shine. Lint free on your fridges glass shelves

4. Meal Napkins

Dampen SPRUCE before a meal and use instead of paper napkins.
They look great rolled into a water glass or lay on the plate with cutlery on top.
Sticky fingers be gone!

5. Non-slip Mat

Pop a damp SPRUCE under a mixing bowl, kitchen whizz or chopping board.
It will hold everything above secure and safe.

6. Messy Eaters?

Clean up after messy eaters of all ages.

100% natural so safe to use on faces & hands. Wipe down highchairs, floors and maybe the ceiling?

7. Clean Counter Tops

After meal prep, there can be a lot of mixed mess.

Cutting boards, back of the stirring spoon spills, splash-back splatter and crumbs all need tidying up.

One cloth for all? YES - the SPRUCE can do it. Safe on everything from tiles, marble, wood, & stainless steel.
Non abrasive, however it has a handy trick up its sleeve.  When used dry the texture acts like a scourer and can loosen tough baked-on or dried messes.

8. Keep Produce Fresh

Line the veggie drawer, place into bags of salad greens, pop under berries and add between fruits + veggies to absorb moisture.

Enjoy the tips.

About The Green Collective:

The Green Collective: Sustainable products designed in Nelson, NZ since 2014

Every product we sell gets used in our house. Every single day. But I was so bored of beige, boring reusables.

That’s where it started. Back in 2014, we couldn’t find eco products that were actually built for real family life. Tough enough to survive three boys, a cat called Kiki and our five chickens (Maudie, Bertha, Honey, Sheila and Mabel). 10+ years ago everything eco was beige. Think back to stainless steel drink bottles and the original totes. All were plain to signify that they were in fact ‘eco’. We discovered certified eco inks and processes that allowed colour to be added safely so we could create art on our sustainable designed products.

The rules were simple: we had to want to use the products ourselves, and they had to handle our months of testing and trials.

Our Impact:

Since 2014, The Green Collective has:

Kept 174 tonnes of waste from ending up in landfill!

Taken over 9 million single-use plastic bags out of circulation. That’s nine million plastic bags that didn’t end up in oceans or blowing down our streets. Mind blown.

Cut down on more than 143,000 plastic sponges - meaning no more microplastics sneaking down your sink. (Your dishes, and the fish, say thank you.)

Saved 17.7 million single-use tissues from being used once and tossed. Who knew tissues could add up like that?

The impact of these achievements is significant. They demonstrate that small actions can lead to substantial change over time. Every plastic bag that is kept out of circulation contributes to a healthier environment. It’s a reminder that conscious choices matter.
