It absorbs up to 15 times its own weight, machine washable at 95 degrees Celsius. Can be boiled, and is 100% biodegradable. Invented in Sweden in 1949, the dishcloth is now exported to more than 70 countries worldwide.<\/p>\n<h2>What Is a Swedish Dishcloth?<\/h2>\n<p>A Swedish dishcloth is a thin, flexible cloth that becomes soft and pliable when wet and stiff when dry. It was invented in 1949 by civil engineer Curt Lindquist in Norrk\u00f6ping, Sweden. Frustrated with cloths that would not dry surfaces properly, he used a meat grinder to press cellulose, cotton and salt into a cloth that met his expectations.<\/p>\n<p>Today, there are only two factories in the world that manufacture the base cloth \u2014 one in Sweden and one in Germany. You can tell the origin by looking at the back: a diamond pattern means Germany, a smooth back means Sweden.<\/p>\n<p>At TekoTryck in S\u00f6lvesborg, Sweden, we have been screen-printing customised designs on Swedish dishcloths since 1994 \u2014 the first company in the world to do so. We have since printed more than 15,000 unique artworks for over 800 customers across 70+ countries.<\/p>\n<h2>What Are Swedish Dishcloths Made Of?<\/h2>\n<p>Swedish dishcloths are made from two natural materials:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>70% cellulose from well-managed forests \u2014 sourced from wood waste, converted into viscose<\/li>\n<li>30% cotton from textile industry byproducts \u2014 repurposing waste material<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This composition makes the dishcloth 100% biodegradable and our printing colours are water-based, blended in our own colour lab.<\/p>\n<h2>Key Properties of Swedish Dishcloths<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Absorbs up to 15 times its own weight<\/li>\n<li>Dries quickly between uses<\/li>\n<li>Machine washable at 95 degrees Celsius. Can be boiled<\/li>\n<li>Can be reused many times<\/li>\n<li>100% biodegradable<\/li>\n<li>Made from renewable, natural materials<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Use a Swedish Dishcloth<\/h2>\n<div class=\"tt-card-grid\">\n<div class=\"tt-card\">\n<div class=\"tt-card-badge\">01<\/div>\n<h3>In the kitchen<\/h3>\n<p>The classic use \u2014 wiping surfaces, absorbing spills, and drying dishes. The cloth absorbs large spills and dries quickly between uses.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tt-card\">\n<div class=\"tt-card-badge\">02<\/div>\n<h3>For pet care<\/h3>\n<p>When a new dishcloth replaces a well-used one in the kitchen, the old one is perfect for cleaning dirty dog paws.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tt-card\">\n<div class=\"tt-card-badge\">03<\/div>\n<h3>On your bicycle<\/h3>\n<p>Store a dishcloth under the bicycle seat. Wet seat? Wipe, squeeze, use again.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tt-card\">\n<div class=\"tt-card-badge\">04<\/div>\n<h3>For plant care<\/h3>\n<p>The Swedish dishcloth is ideal for wiping plants and windowsills. Dusty leaves prevent plants from accessing essential chlorophyll.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tt-card\">\n<div class=\"tt-card-badge\">05<\/div>\n<h3>Growing cress<\/h3>\n<p>Place a damp dishcloth on a flat surface with raised edges. Spread seeds on the dishcloth. Keep damp. In 3-4 days, the cress is ready.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tt-card\">\n<div class=\"tt-card-badge\">06<\/div>\n<h3>For outdoor clothing<\/h3>\n<p>Wipe off dirt from outdoor clothing with a dishcloth instead of washing after every use. This can help reduce the need for frequent washing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Swedish Dishcloths as Design Products<\/h2>\n<p>The Swedish dishcloth has evolved from a basic household product into a highly appreciated design product and message carrier. TekoTryck was the first company in the world to introduce design and profile printing on dishcloths in 1994.<\/p>\n<p>Today, printed dishcloths are used as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Corporate giveaways and promotional products<\/li>\n<li>Souvenir and gift items<\/li>\n<li>Design products for retail<\/li>\n<li>Fundraising materials for organisations and schools<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>TekoTryck offers screen printing on several dishcloth sizes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Standard: 172&#215;200 mm<\/li>\n<li>Japan: 150&#215;258 mm<\/li>\n<li>Large: 258&#215;303 mm<\/li>\n<li>Extra Large: 350&#215;303 mm<\/li>\n<li>XXL: 400&#215;303 mm<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We also print on kitchen towels (50% linen \/ 50% cotton, 100% linen) and velour towels.<\/p>\n<h2>Swedish Dishcloths vs Paper Towels<\/h2>\n<p>The Swedish dishcloth offers a reusable alternative to disposable paper towels:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"tt-table\">\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Feature<\/th>\n<th>Swedish Dishcloth<\/th>\n<th>Paper Towels<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Reusable<\/td>\n<td>Yes, many times<\/td>\n<td>No, single use<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Washable<\/td>\n<td>Yes, 100 degrees C<\/td>\n<td>No<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Absorption<\/td>\n<td>15 times its weight<\/td>\n<td>Limited<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Biodegradable<\/td>\n<td>100%<\/td>\n<td>Yes, but high volume<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Material<\/td>\n<td>cellulose + cotton<\/td>\n<td>Paper pulp<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<h2>Swedish Dishcloths vs Sponges<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"tt-table\">\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Feature<\/th>\n<th>Swedish Dishcloth<\/th>\n<th>Kitchen Sponge<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Material<\/td>\n<td>Natural (cellulose+cotton)<\/td>\n<td>Often synthetic<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Biodegradable<\/td>\n<td>100%<\/td>\n<td>Often no<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Drying speed<\/td>\n<td>Fast<\/td>\n<td>Slow<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Machine washable<\/td>\n<td>Yes, 95 degrees C<\/td>\n<td>Limited<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Absorption<\/td>\n<td>15 times its weight<\/td>\n<td>Varies<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Odour resistance<\/td>\n<td>Dries quickly, less odour<\/td>\n<td>Retains moisture<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<h2>The William Morris Collection<\/h2>\n<p>TekoTryck holds a licensing agreement with the William Morris Society to print classic patterns by William Morris (1834-1896) on dishcloths and kitchen towels.
