Buyer’s Guide to Choosing Biodegradable Wipes

Biodegradable wipes and cleaning cloths provide an alternative to conventional synthetic wipes for hand, surface and general-purpose cleaning. Insinc’s range includes biodegradable hand and surface wipes, alcohol wipes, bamboo water wipes and multipurpose bamboo cleaning cloths.

Choose from tubs, dispenser boxes, refill pouches and large rolls containing 450, 700 or 1,000 wipes. Bucket systems and wall-mounted dispensers are also available for busy commercial facilities.

Which Biodegradable Wipe Format Should You Choose?

Pre-moistened alcohol wipes suit convenient hand and compatible surface cleaning, while water-based bamboo wipes may be preferred where a simpler wet-wipe format is required. Multipurpose bamboo cloths are suitable for general cleaning tasks with an appropriate cleaning solution.

Large refill rolls and bucket systems suit workplaces with frequent use, while tubs and dispenser boxes provide portable access in offices, gyms, healthcare settings and shared facilities.

Are Biodegradable Wipes Flushable or Compostable?

Not automatically. “Biodegradable” describes how a material may break down under suitable conditions, but it does not mean the wipe is safe to flush or accepted by every composting facility.

Dispose of used wipes according to the product instructions and local waste requirements. Check whether contamination from alcohol, cleaning chemicals or surface residue affects the available disposal method.
