May 1st 2005

With a EUR15million turnover in 2004, Easiwipes is a European leader in the supply of nonwoven wipes for professional use.

The company, established in 1978 and based in Kent, has just launched a new range, with more than 130 products, under its Easitex brand.These products have been designed for specific tasks within the janitorial and maintenance sectors and come under the Easiwipes price guarantee – which promises to beat any like-for-like price (terms and conditions apply).

Easiwipes’ R&D team, which has over 80 years’ experience collectively, began developing the range by investigating some of the common problems associated with specific cleaning tasks.These included static development, floor wipes that pushed dust around, cleaning wipes that disintegrated when wet and poor antibacterial performance.The new range is designed to counter these issues and to deliver optimum cleaning and hygiene performance while ensuring value for money. Easiwipes offers next day delivery from stock and supply chain reliability.

Easiwipes services a diverse range of industries, from manufacturing to medical and reprographics to automotive, across the UK, Eire, Europe, US and Middle East. Some of the new products use Dupont’s latest Sontara nonwoven technology. Easiwipes has been Dupont’s exclusive UK partner for its Sontara fabrics since 1992.

Robert Cooper, Easiwipes’marketing manager, says:“We have used our extensive knowledge and experience in designing and supplying wipes to produce a set of products that can undertake specific tasks with maximum efficiency and economically.

“For example, our extra absorbent Best Wipes are soft enough for delicate surfaces and can clean glass and shiny surfaces without smearing.They remain strong when wet and are washable, reusable and long-lasting. Our smear-free, antistatic Office Swipes are ideal for computer screens.We know that repeated use of wipes containing alcohol can crack plastic, so our wipes have been designed to prevent this. In addition, our anti-bacterial Floor Swipes are effective against MRSA, HIV and all common bacteria.” All products are developed and manufactured in-house to stringent requirements.
