Surprisingly, sponges are not created equal and each color has its specific purpose, according to the manufacturers’ recommendations.


The yellow sponge, the most delicate in the collection, is ideal for washing glassware and glasses. It will protect them from scratches.

The blue sponge is perfect for removing delicate porcelain and fresh stains from Teflon surfaces.

The red sponge, being medium-hard, may not be suitable for delicate dishes. You can reach for it when washing ceramics.

Remember that when washing delicate dishes, it is not only the hardness of the sponge that is important. The force with which you wash should be adapted to the material of the dish to avoid unwanted scratches.

Among the variety of sponges, the magic sponge stands out for its whiteness and ability to clean without detergents. Just soak it in water to easily remove stains or traces of felt-tip pens. However, it is not intended for washing dishes or leather and patent surfaces.
