The S-PKTRED is a red 18-inch looped microfiber pocket mop with a canvas back, sized to slide onto a standard pocket-style flat-mop frame. One pad handles both damp mopping and dry dust mopping, so most routes can run a single pad type on the cart instead of two.
How the canvas pocket works
A fabric pocket at each end slips over the wings of a standard breakaway flat-mop frame. There is no hook-and-loop to wear out and nothing to clip, so a soiled pad comes off and a fresh one goes on in seconds - the change-out speed that one-pad-per-room protocols depend on. Canvas is the heavier of the two backings, and it is what lets the pad come back from repeated industrial laundering.
Wet or dry with the same pad
Run it dry and the looped microfiber picks up dust and grit electrostatically instead of pushing it into corners. Charge it with water or a neutral cleaner and the loops hold many times their own weight in liquid, releasing it steadily across the floor rather than all at once in the first few feet.
Where red fits in a color-coded program
Color-coding assigns each area of a building its own set of mops, so a pad that has been in a restroom never reaches a kitchen or a patient room. Red is the color most programs reserve for restrooms, keeping those pads visibly separate from kitchen and general-purpose stock.

Care
Launder warm without fabric softener - softener coats the fiber and kills the electrostatic grab that makes microfiber work. Wash microfiber separately from cotton so lint does not load the fibers, and tumble low or air dry. The canvas backing is built for industrial laundering, so the wash cycle is what these pads are designed around rather than something they merely survive.
