Decitex : Quelles floorutions microfibre for the cleaning of laboratories and cleanrooms ?

Specialist in technical microfibre textiles, Decitex designs high-performance cleaning solutions for laboratories, cleanrooms and critical areas in the pharmaceutical, biotech, cosmetics and food industries. Its mastery of fibre and knitting technologies ensures optimal retention, low linting and compatibility with commonly used protocols and disinfectants. Distributed by Dutscher, the Decitex range brings efficiency, traceability and durability to R&D, QC and production teams—for reproducible results and spotless surfaces.

Textile expertise dedicated to professional hygiene

Rooted in professional textile engineering, the brand has made microfibre its speciality, meeting the demands of modern hygiene. Its name nods to the unit used to express fibre fineness, decitex (dtex), and reflects a culture of precision where yarn structure and quality matter as much as technique. Over the years, Decitex has strengthened its R&D, working with healthcare facilities, laboratories and industrial sites to co-develop solutions tailored to controlled environments. This hands-on approach has shaped a portfolio focused on performance, user safety and resource efficiency (water, chemicals), while ensuring excellent wash durability and a well-controlled service life. Today, its products are recognised for their consistency and ergonomics, and fit naturally into the stringent hygiene protocols of regulated sectors.

Expertise and areas of specialisation

Decitex puts microfibre engineering at the service of sensitive environments. Yarn selection, density, construction and edge finishing are tuned to balance capillarity, soil removal and low particle emission. This textile know-how delivers mop heads and wipes with low linting, designed to limit the risk of recontamination when cleaning worktops, hoods, walls and ceilings in ISO 8 to ISO 6 areas and preparation rooms.

Developed for laboratory routines, Decitex solutions make pre-impregnation in closed tubs straightforward and help control the volumes of wetting agent, ensuring cycle-to-cycle reproducibility and managed consumption. Colour-coding helps prevent cross-transfer between zones, while robust construction stands up to professional laundry cycles. Compatibility with common detergents/stripping agents and disinfectants (alcohol, quaternary ammonium compounds, peroxides as per protocols) means textiles can be integrated into existing cleaning plans without compromising performance.

For R&D and quality control, Decitex brings consistency and ergonomics, enabling fast, safe execution of repetitive tasks. In pharmaceutical and cosmetics production, the geometry of the mops and loop constructions maximises the useful contact area, improving coverage while reducing effort. Combined with Dutscher support (selection, pre-impregnation setup, team training), the Decitex range helps achieve the efficiency, compliance and sustainability targets expected in regulated environments.

Frequently asked questions about the Decitex brand

Are Decitex textiles suitable for cleanrooms and sensitive laboratories?
Yes, low-lint, high-absorbency grades meet cleaning requirements in ISO-classified areas and ancillary technical rooms. Thanks to a specialised manufacturing process, the decontaminated microfibres set the benchmark for particulate cleanliness.

Are they compatible with our current disinfectants?
Decitex microfibres are engineered for broad compatibility with commonly used actives (alcohol, quaternary ammonium compounds, peroxides), in line with your internal protocols.

Do they help reduce water and chemical consumption?
Pre-impregnation and the capillary action of the microfibres enable precise dosing, minimising solution use while maximising mechanical efficacy. Studies conducted by Decitex also showed that surface bio-cleaning with water and their microfibre significantly reduces bacterial load.

What does Dutscher bring with Decitex?
A validated range for the life sciences, guidance on deployment, set-up and use within bio-cleaning procedures, training, and answers to all your technical questions.
