Norwex Home Cleaning Products
I was contacted by Marilyn Quicksall who is a consultant for a company called Norwex. Norwex products originated in Norway in 1994 and took Europe by storm eventually moving into Canada and the US . Set up as a direct sales company, Norwex products takes the chore out of cleaning! The Norwex product allows you to clean just using water and removes 99.9% of the bacteria from surfaces, resulting in a cleaner and healthier environment. The Norwex Mission is to improve quality of life by radically reducing the use of chemicals in personal care and cleaning.
In Europe, microfiber products have been commonly used in homes, hospitals, schools, hotels and various commercial applications for years. The product line was originally developed for the commercial cleaning industry.

The ideology was then, as it is now, to produce a more efficient cleaning product where only water needs to be added to the cleaning cloth or mop. This led to the decrease in the use of chemicals and other non-biodegradable detergents. To maintain a cleaner and healthier environment is still a part of the Norwex philosophy today.
Eliminating toxic chemicals has been a growing concern for many moms. Moms want to get back to basics and give their kids the best. We have been over run with toxins that are resluting in illness in many people. Norwex products are particularly great for those with allergies, asthma and chemical sensitivities. There are also personal care products available as well as certified organics.
Save Time & Money – reduce your cleaning time by 75% or more. You can also save money by reducing the use of chemicals and cleaning supplies up to 90%. The average household spends $450 – $600 a year on these items.
Improve health – It is more important than ever to eliminate household chemicals because of their adverse effect on families with allergies and asthma. With the Antibac Enviro Cloth dirt and dust are removed instead of being spread around. You don’t breathe, touch or ingest chemicals. You have a cleaner indoor air quality, which reduces allergies and asthma and removes 99% of bacteria from surfaces.
Protect The Environment – Using environmentally gentle alternatives for cleaning and personal care can help preserve the environment.
The Review
I was sent the Norwex Antibac Enviro Cloth and the Antibac Window Cloth by Marilyn. I have seen these types of cloths before but was never schooled on the proper use of them. Marilyn sent me several sheets of instructions and tips on getting the best use out of these products.
The Blue “Enviro” Cloth allows you to clean with water only.. It removes 99.9% of bacteria from surfaces, so I used this cloth in my kitchen to wipe down surfaces all over. The stove, microwave, fridge and counters. It was great! Highly asborbant, a great size and easly to take care of. Just rinse and reuse! Every few days you throw it in the wash with soap only. No bleaches, dryer sheets, additives at all. Just soap and its ready to go again and again!
What was also awesome is that the paper towel useage in this house was almost zip! At $14.50, this towel will pay for itself in a few weeks and this cloth has a warranty of 2 years from the company, so I am sure it will continue to be effective long past that warranty!
Marilyn also sent me the Window cloth. This was very cool as well as just water will do your mirrors, windows and glass with no streaks! Can we say Hallejulia! This also works when combined with the Enviro cloth. Clean dirty surfaces first with a moist Enviro Cloth and then polish with the dry Window Cloth for a streak free shine! Great for bathroom fixtures and shiny finishes. I love this thing!
Again, a 2 year warranty on this cloth and you certainly cannot beat the money you will save using No Chemicals and No paper products! At $16.99 it is a great value as well. You can buy both of the cloths I reviewed in a package deal for only $28.99. I highly recommend these cloths! You will not be disappointed.
Norwex also has a large list of other cleaning products such as erasers, mops, laundry products, odor control, dusting and many more categories. I cannot wait to try other products from Norwex like the laundry soap Marilyn sent me samples of and the list of Items I need to buy and replace in my home!
