SCA, Philadelphia, Pa., USA, producer of the Tork brand of Away-from-Home (AfH) professional hygiene products, this week launched a new, extremely low-lint wiper for technical cleaning tasks involving sensitive surfaces. Designed to meet the needs of clients in lint and static electricity-sensitive industries such as electronics, aircraft manufacturing, printing, vehicle painting, and food processing, the Tork Industrial Low-Lint Cleaning Cloth delivers extremely low-lint cleaning, certified anti-static properties, excellent solvent use, and a high absorption capacity of oil and water.

"At SCA, many of our innovations come directly from customer experience feedback. When our customers who work with highly sensitive surfaces told us low-lint should be as close to no lint as possible, we got to work," said Trevor Kelley, product manager for SCA's AfH Professional Hygiene business in North America. "The Tork Industrial Low-Lint Cleaning Cloth answers this need, enabling professionals to easily achieve pristine results."

Offering softness, strength, absorbency, and low-linting, the new cleaning cloth is designed to improve the process of cleaning, sanitizing, or disinfecting sensitive components, tools, and surfaces across a range of industries. It has been designed and tested to meet the low-lint standards of the Society of Automotive Engineers, the world's largest automotive and aerospace standards setting body.
 
Testing was conducted by the University of Dayton Research Institute. Additional testing performed by the SP Technical Research Institute of Sweden shows that the cloth meets anti-static standards and is therefore suitable for Electrostatic Protective Area environments. Moreover, it is solvent suitable, performing well in chemical reaction testing with the American Standard Test Method ASTM D-543.
 
The Tork Industrial Low-Lint Cleaning Cloth is available this month.
