A wet wipe, also known as a wet towel, or a moist towelette, is a small moistened piece of paper or cloth that often comes folded and individually wrapped for convenience. Wet wipes are used for cleaning purposes, like personal hygiene or household cleaning. Because of their failure to break down when flushed, they have been implicated by water companies as contributory to sewer blockages known as fatbergs.
The wet tissues market is a growing business. Besides cleansing tissues like wet toilet paper, baby wipes or hard surface wipes other products such as sun protection lotion or deodorants are offered as wipes. The wet tissue liquids are mostly aqueous, the cellulose is a good nutrient, the non-woven is always moderately contaminated with microorganisms and the storage temperature is nearly optimal for microbial growth.
Facial tissue and paper handkerchief refers to a class of soft, absorbent, disposable papers that are suitable for use on the face. They are disposable alternatives for cloth handkerchiefs.
