Yellow is the restroom color in a color-coded cleaning program, and these yellow 200 GSM microfiber cloths - sold by the case of 500 - keep bathroom cleaning cleanly contained. In the standard janitorial color system, yellow is assigned to restroom fixtures and surfaces such as sinks, mirrors, partitions, and counters (kept separate from the red cloths reserved for toilets and urinals). Lightweight, lint-free, and machine washable, they give facilities an affordable, reusable way to service restrooms while lowering the risk of cross-contamination.
Where yellow cloths fit in a color-coded program
Color-coding assigns one cloth color to one type of area so bacteria never travel between zones. Yellow is conventionally reserved for restroom fixtures and high-touch surfaces. Reach for these cloths to:
- Wipe restroom sinks, counters, and vanity tops
- Clean mirrors, partitions, dispensers, and stall doors
- Disinfect high-touch surfaces like handles, switches, and push plates
- Keep restroom-surface cloths separate from toilet (red) and food-prep (green) cloths
Why microfiber
Split microfiber uses millions of tiny fibers to lift dust, grease, and microscopic debris up into the cloth instead of pushing it around the way a cotton rag does. You get a streak-free finish on glass and stainless, a strong grab on grease and grime, and effective cleaning with plain water or your usual solution - often with less chemical. At 200 GSM these are a light, fast-drying economy weight built for high-volume everyday wiping, and they machine wash and reuse hundreds of times, so one case of 500 replaces stacks of disposable paper.

Frequently asked questions
What is the yellow cloth used for in a color-coded system?
Yellow is the conventional color for restroom fixtures and surfaces - sinks, mirrors, partitions, and counters - kept separate from the red cloths used on toilets and urinals. Dedicating yellow cloths to these surfaces helps prevent cross-contamination in and beyond the restroom.
Is 200 GSM good enough for commercial cleaning?
Yes. 200 GSM is a light, fast-drying economy weight made for high-volume general wiping, glass, and surface cleaning. Heavier 300 to 500 GSM towels are better for drying and plush buffing, but 200 GSM is the practical, cost-effective choice when you go through a lot of cloths.
Are these towels washable and reusable?
They are. Machine wash them and reuse them hundreds of times. Wash microfiber separately from cotton and skip fabric softener and bleach, which clog the fibers and shorten cloth life.
How many cloths come in a case?
Each case includes 500 cloths sized 12 x 12 inches.
Can I use these with cleaning chemicals?
Yes. They work damp with water alone or with most standard cleaners and disinfectants. Avoid strong acids and high-heat drying to protect the microfiber.
