3 Absorbent Products for Contractors to Have On-Hand

Contractors know that dozens of hands can touch every project and it’s crucial to ensure quality standards are met and that the customer is happy with the work completed. An important component of a successful job is having the right absorbent products on-hand for clean-ups, wipe-downs and more. Here are three wiping products all contractors should have on-hand.

Versatile, Disposable Rags

For contractors who are painting, staining or cleaning, rags offer value and versatility to important jobs. A product like our top-selling TOOLBOX® White Rags is specifically designed for effectively wiping a variety of spills and messes. While many other rags are made from T-shirts designed to be worn, TOOLBOX® White Rags are made with 45% recycled fibers and are specifically designed to clean, wipe and absorb.

When a tradesperson grabs a perforated rag from a box of Sellars TOOLBOX® White Rags, they can trust the size, quality and cleanliness of that rag are consistent in performance and a lower cost-per-use as well. White Rags are easy to transport in a center pull box put-up that can move from shop to truck to job with ease. White Rags are 3x stronger than a typical paper towel and a must-have for all job sites and shops.

High-Quality, General Purpose Wiper

Some jobs—like refinishing floors, stripping paint, greasing machines or applying pipe cement—involve working with harsh chemicals, which require a solvent resistant product. For use with cleaners, alcohols and solvents, choose a wiper made using a hydroentangled manufacturing process like our TOOLBOX® T800 WaterWeave® Double-Take® Wipers. These wipers are low-linting and more durable even when used on rough or jagged surfaces like pipes, duct work, wood or drywall materials. The large-capacity pop-up dispenser makes wipers easy for contractors to grab with only one hand and the larger sizes can clean up more with a single sheet.

Reusable, Heavy-Duty Degreasing Wet Wipes

For greasy tools, paint splotches, adhesives and more, a pre-moistened wipe can make cleaning up a breeze. Clean Task® Cleaning & Degreasing Wet Wipes come in a durable, portable Big Grip® container to bring from job to job and mess to mess. Also, an option to mount on a job truck or toolbox. Each wet wipe is dual textured with a smooth side for light cleaning and a non-abrasive scouring side for scrubbing. Don’t leave behind a mess—only a fresh, citrus scent.

Time is money! Don’t make an unnecessary trip to the store or the shop. By keeping these three wiping products on-hand, contractors can enable a safer workspace and improve customer perceptions by leaving a clean space and a job well done. Looking for the right products for your specific needs, contact the Sellars team.
