Behind the scenes
Red, blue, green, yellow: the color code of a clean home
Sofia Bauer
Head Crew Trainer
Open any Klar kit and you will find four colors of microfiber cloth. It is not decoration; it is the single most effective way to stop cross-contamination between rooms.
- Red — toilets and urinals only
- Yellow — bathroom sinks, showers and tiles
- Blue — glass, mirrors and general dusting
- Green — kitchen and food-contact surfaces
After every visit, cloths are bagged by color and laundered at 90°C back at the studio. Each cloth is retired after 300 washes, when the fibers lose their grip.
“If you remember one thing: never let the bathroom cloth see the kitchen.”
