Abstract

See full text

A plural sided cleaning article optionally removably attachable to a handle. The cleaning article may have a layered construction. The construction may comprise a sheet, to accommodate optional and removable attachment to a handle, intermediate tow fibers, and a non-planar structure extending outwardly from the side of the tow fibers opposite the sheet. This arrangement avoids the disadvantage of strips according to the prior art while increasing the surface area of the tow fibers.
