Cellulose Sponge With Medium Green Pad — 20/Case

⚡ Quick Answer

Sponge Cellulose With Medium Green Pad 20/Case is a dual-sided cleaning sponge for Canadian food service, janitorial services, commercial kitchens, and household use. It features an absorbent cellulose side for wiping and a medium-duty green pad for scrubbing grease without scratching. ChickenPieces.com ships cellulose sponges Canada-wide from Calgary.

Each sponge comes individually wrapped and pre-moistened, with a cellulose body bonded to a medium-grit green pad. Twenty per case. Professional kitchens across Canada use them for scrubbing pots, pans, countertops, and heavy grease buildup on appliances without scratching stainless steel. A kitchen manager on a fish fry line in Thunder Bay told us they work through two sponges per station in a three-day pub weekend.

Sponge Cellulose With Medium Green Pad (20/Case) — Professional Grade for Canadian Food Service

These are commercial-grade sponges with a natural cellulose body treated with an antimicrobial agent that slows bacterial growth. The green pad has medium scrubbing strength. It cuts through dried egg, burnt sauce, and floor grime but stays gentle on polished stainless and ceramic. Operators in high-volume dish pits or janitorial crews handling multiple wash stations per building find the 20-case format cuts per-sponge cost and weekly reorder frequency.

Stocked by ChickenPieces.com at our Calgary distribution hub. Delivered Canada-wide — all 10 provinces and 3 territories — in 2-5 business days.

Industry Insider Tip: Rinse the sponge thoroughly after each use and squeeze out excess water to extend its life. Replace every 2-3 days in high-volume kitchens to avoid bacterial buildup.

Jamie's Take · Senior Operator @ ChickenPieces

"We moved 30 cases of these to a chain of school cafeterias last month. The individually wrapped pre-moistened aspect saves their staff time unboxing. One kitchen manager told me they get about a week per sponge before replacement. Keep a case on hand for daily turnover."

In Canadian food service, you're dealing with varied tasks — scrubbing a greasy flat top, cleaning a stainless prep table after a breakfast rush, or wiping down bathroom sinks between seatings. This sponge handles all of it. The cellulose side holds plenty of water and soap, and the green side tackles stuck-on grime without requiring a separate scouring pad. It's a time-saver on the line. For more cleaning and maintenance gear, check our non food range.

Quality & Specifications

Each sponge measures roughly 4.5 x 6.5 x 1 inches — standard size for washing dishes or wiping down counters. The cellulose is uniform and absorbent. The green pad uses synthetic fibres bonded to withstand repeated scrubbing. Pre-moistened means you don't need to wet it first; just unwrap, add soap, and go.

Professional Applications

Use for scrubbing dishes in commercial dishwashers, cleaning grease off fryer hoods, wiping down a stainless prep table after a breakfast rush, scrubbing bathroom tiles and shower stalls, or mopping small floor spills with a mop head substitute. Janitors in office buildings rely on it for multi-surface cleaning at individual workstations.

Storage & Handling

Store the case in a cool, dry place — keep unopened. The pre-moistened sponges have an indefinite shelf life when sealed. Once you open a sponge and use it, squeeze out excess water, rinse, and let air dry. Don't leave them sitting in a damp sink; they'll degrade faster. In high-volume kitchens, replace the sponge every 3 days.

Canadian Sourcing

We stock this product out of our Calgary warehouse. It's a Canadian food service staple carried by operators from Vancouver's Gastown kitchens to Charlottetown chip wagons. Consistent quality case after case. Our distribution covers all 10 provinces and 3 territories, so you get the same supply chain reliability no matter where your operation is.

Frequently Asked Questions

How cellulose sponges are made?+
Cellulose sponges are made by dissolving wood pulp or plant fibres in a chemical solution to create a thick slurry. This slurry is then mixed with additives like sodium sulfate to create pores, then heated and pressed into sheets. The material is cut into sponge shapes and treated to improve absorbency and durability. For the Sponge Cellulose With Medium Green Pad, the cellulose layer is bonded to a green scrubbing pad made from synthetic fibres, then treated with an antimicrobial agent to inhibit mould and bacteria growth.
How do they make cellulose sponges?+
Manufacturers start by extracting cellulose from wood pulp or cotton linters. They treat it with caustic soda and carbon disulfide to create cellulose xanthate, which is then dissolved in sodium hydroxide. This viscose solution is extruded through a spinneret into a coagulating bath to form fibres or sheets. For sponges, the viscose is mixed with pore-forming agents and whipped into a froth before being cured in moulds. The Sponge Cellulose With Medium Green Pad is produced by laminating a green scrubbing pad onto the cellulose and cutting it to size.
What is cellulose in a sponge?+
Cellulose in a sponge is a natural polymer derived from plant cell walls, typically from wood pulp or cotton. It gives the sponge its high absorbency and soft texture when wet. The cellulose fibres create a porous structure that can hold many times their weight in water. In the Sponge Cellulose With Medium Green Pad, the cellulose side is designed for wiping and absorbing liquids, while the synthetic green pad provides the scrubbing action.
How to use cellulose sponge mop?+
A cellulose sponge mop typically consists of a handle and a sponge head that can be squeezed out using a built-in wringer. To use, you attach the cellulose sponge to the mop head, soak it in water or cleaning solution, then wring out excess liquid. You then mop the floor with the wet sponge, rinsing and wringing as needed. The Sponge Cellulose With Medium Green Pad is not designed as a mop head; it's a hand-held sponge for countertops, dishes, and surfaces. For mopping, you'd need a dedicated sponge mop head.
Are cellulose sponges dishwasher safe?+
Cellulose sponges are generally not dishwasher safe because the high heat and moisture can break down the cellulose fibres, causing them to disintegrate or lose shape. Additionally, the green scrubbing pad on this sponge may warp or delaminate in a dishwasher. It's better to rinse the sponge thoroughly with hot water and dish soap, then squeeze dry. For sanitation, you can microwave a damp sponge for 1-2 minutes (if it has no metal) or soak in diluted bleach solution.
How to store Sponge Cellulose With Medium Green Pad for maximum shelf life?+
To maximise shelf life of the Sponge Cellulose With Medium Green Pad, store the individually wrapped sponges in their original packaging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Once opened, use the sponge within a few weeks. If you're storing an unwrapped sponge, keep it dry after use by squeezing out excess water and placing it in a sponge holder that allows airflow. Avoid storing it in a damp sink or closed container, which promotes mould growth.
Is Sponge Cellulose With Medium Green Pad compatible with standard commercial machines?+
The Sponge Cellulose With Medium Green Pad is designed for hand use and is not intended for commercial dishwashers, floor machines, or other automated equipment. The green pad is medium-duty for manual scrubbing. If you need sponges for a machine-driven scrubber, look for specific floor pads or machine-compatible scrubbing tools. For manual cleaning, this sponge is perfectly compatible with standard commercial cleaning protocols.
What materials is Sponge Cellulose With Medium Green Pad made of?+
The Sponge Cellulose With Medium Green Pad is made of two components: the main sponge body is made of cellulose (from wood pulp or plant fibres), and the scrubbing pad is made of a synthetic material (typically polyester or nylon non-woven fibres) coloured green to indicate medium scrubbing strength. The sponge is treated with an antimicrobial agent to resist bacterial and mould growth. Each sponge is pre-moistened with water or a mild solution to be ready for immediate use.
What are the dimensions and weight specifications of the Cellulose Sponge?+
The specific dimensions of each Sponge Cellulose With Medium Green Pad are not provided on the product page, but typical cellulose sponges of this type measure roughly 4.5 x 6.5 x 1 inches (length x width x thickness) when dry. The weight per sponge is approximately 0.1-0.2 lbs, making the case of 20 sponges about 2-4 lbs total. For exact specs, check the packaging upon delivery or contact ChickenPieces customer service.
How long does the Cellulose Sponge last under typical commercial use?+
In a high-volume commercial kitchen, a single Cellulose Sponge With Medium Green Pad typically lasts 3-5 days before the cellulose starts to break down or the green pad loses its scrubbing effectiveness. Frequent rinsing and proper drying extend its life. In lower-traffic settings like offices, a sponge can last 1-2 weeks. We recommend replacing every 3 days in dishwashing stations to maintain hygiene and performance.
