Abstract

The present invention is directed to a nonwoven fabric, and specifically to an engineered nonwoven fabric imparted with a discontinuous, irregular, three-dimensional pattern, which results in a sufficiently resilient material that exhibits a uniform multi-directional cleaning performance imminently suitable for numerous applications including the treatment, cleaning and/or cleansing of surfaces.

Claims (8)

1 . A cleaning sheet having a uniform multi-directional cleaning performance comprising a nonwoven fabric imaged on a three-dimensional image transfer device, wherein said image exhibits a discontinuous, irregular three-dimensional pattern.

2 . A cleaning sheet having a uniform multi-directional cleaning performance comprising:

a. a nonwoven fabric imaged on a three-dimensional image transfer device, wherein said image exhibits a discontinuous, irregular three-dimensional pattern; and

b. a cleaning composition comprising an effective amount of a cleansing surfactant, said aqueous liquid cleansing composition being coated onto or impregnated into said nonwoven fabric to the extent of from 50% to 500% by weight of said fabric.

3 . A cleaning sheet as in claim 1 , wherein said imaged nonwoven fabric is a medical cleaning sheet.

4 . A cleaning sheet as in claim 1 , wherein said imaged nonwoven fabric is an industrial cleaning sheet.
