Summer-Ready Reusable Kitchen Towels

Cloud Paper's Swish Cloths are Adorable and Functional

— July 20, 2023 — Eco
Reusable kitchen towels present a sustainable kitchenware choice while promising a degree of durability and versatility. Eco-conscious paper products startup Cloud Paper offers its own take on the Swedish dishcloth‚ a highly absorbent reusable and eco-friendly cleaning cloth made from a blend of cellulose (wood pulp) and cotton.

Cloud Paper's Swish Cloths have a spongy texture and are made with plant-based materials. According to the brand, one cloth can "wick up 20x its weight in liquids." The reusable kitchen towels can last between four and six months of use when taken good care of. They are also fully biodegradable and can be tossed in the compost.

Cloud Paper also adds a sense of whimsy to this kitchen product, releasing a summer edition of its Swish Cloths. The towels are adorned with illustrations of strawberries, ice cream, and clouds.
