Sponges & Scouring Pads

Sponges & Scouring Pads make everyday cleaning faster, safer, and more effective across kitchens, bathrooms, and job sites. From wiping spills to cutting through baked‑on grime, the right scrubber saves time and protects your surfaces.

Choose cellulose sponges for high absorbency and quick wipe‑downs; their porous structure pulls up liquids and fine debris. Scrub sponges combine a soft wiping side with an abrasive layer for pots, pans, and sinks. Non‑scratch pads tackle nonstick cookware, glass, ceramic cooktops, and stainless steel without leaving marks. For heavy‑duty work, fiber scouring pads, copper scrubbers, and steel wool remove rust, paint, and carbonized residue. Melamine eraser blocks lift scuffs from walls, baseboards, and appliances with just water. Microfiber pads trap dust and soap scum while rinsing clean.

Key benefits include ergonomic shapes for comfortable grip, durable bonding that resists delamination, and antimicrobial or odor‑resistant treatments that help sponges stay fresher longer. Eco‑friendly options feature plant‑based cellulose, recycled fibers, and compostable packaging to reduce waste.

Selection tips:
- Match abrasiveness to the surface: start gentle, step up only as needed.
- Color‑code by task to prevent cross‑contamination between dishes, counters, and bathrooms.
- For nonstick coatings and delicate finishes, use labeled non‑scratch products.
- Keep a heavy‑duty pad for grills, cast iron, and outdoor gear.
- Stock melamine blocks for spot cleaning fingerprints and shoe marks.

Care and safety: Rinse thoroughly after use, wring out, and air‑dry to prevent odors. Sanitize sponges periodically in hot, soapy water or the dishwasher top rack. Replace regularly—if a sponge tears, smells, or sheds, it’s time for a new one. Always test pads on a hidden area and avoid steel wool on nonstick or polished surfaces.
