ENJO has been in Australia for over 29 years. Chances are you or someone you know has used our bestselling floor cleaning system. There's no going past our safe, effective, and brightly coloured Floor Fibres!
Let's take a look at some old versions of our much-loved Floor Fibres and see how they have improved and what they look like today. If you still have some Floor Fibres in your home that are older than 3 years, this is your sign to look at replacing them and bringing back that 6x cleaner clean that made you fall in love with ENJO in the first place!
Dust Floor Fibre (Current: Orange + Red Stripe)
Current label reads: "Dust"
Previous colour: Orange + Yellow ENJO logo / Orange + Yellow Stripe
Purpose: Used dry, the Dust Floor Fibre is the quickest way to pick-up, trap and physically remove dust, dirt and hair from your hard floors. Easy to use and a must-have for asthma and allergy sufferers.
NOTE: Previous versions of the Dust Floor Fibre required the Fibre to be 'charged" first by rubbing it with your hand for a few seconds to create a static charge. With our latest Dust Floor Fibre version, no charging is needed! The Fibre composition and make up is even fluffier, making it easier to lift and trap dust and debris.
Dust Floor Fibre
Allpurpose Floor Fibre (Current: Blue + White Stripe + Speckle)
Current label reads: "Medium"
Previously named: Mixed Floor Fibre, Matte Floor Fibre, Floor Fibre Medium.
Previous colour: Yellow + White Stripe, Blue + Yellow Stripe, Blue + Dark Blue Stripe,
Purpose: The Allpurpose Floor Fibre leaves low-sheen floors super clean, with no residue and no streaks in half the time of traditional floor cleaning methods. Floor types include low sheen floorboards, laminate, PVC, tiles, parquet, concrete, cork, terrazzo, stone and sealed surfaces.
Key updates to our current Allpurpose Floor Fibre:

Allpurpose Floor Fibre
High Gloss Floor Fibre (Current: Light Blue)
Current label reads: "Soft"
Previously named: Shine Floor Fibre, Allpurpose Floor Fibre, Fussy Floor Fibre
Previous colour: Yellow + White Speckled, Light Grey, Pale Yellow
Purpose: The High Gloss Floor Fibre is designed to clean high-gloss floors quickly, with zero chemicals and zero streaks. Including polished wood, marble, parquetry, bamboo, granite, gloss vinyl, or any other high-gloss, streak-prone floors such as waxed and oiled floors.
Key updates to our current version of the High Gloss Floor Fibre:
The High Gloss Floor Fibre was born out of combining the Fussy and Gloss Floor Fibres with the following improvements.
The loop height was increased by 2.5mm for the following benefits:
- Absorption capacity is 7% higher than of previous versions of the Fibre. Meaning you can clean for longer without the Fibre becoming easily saturated.
- The higher loops glide smoother over floors (e.g. oiled or waxed wooden floors), which makes cleaning even easier!
- Stronger thread has been used to prevent Fibres from being pulled out even though the loops are higher.
High Gloss Floor Fibre
Extreme Floor Fibre (Current: Dark Blue + Light Blue ENJO logo)
Current label reads: "Strong"
Previous colour: Green + Yellow ENJO logo, Grey + Yellow ENJO logo.
Purpose: The Extreme Floor Fibre is designed to lift heavy-duty dirt from smooth indoor and smooth outdoor flooring with zero chemicals and zero waste. Perfect for slate, concrete, garage flooring including driveways and terrace decking (wooden and plastic composite). Not suitable for oiled or waxed floors.
NOTE: Other than the colour change to the current dark blue (the darker the Floor Fibre, indicates the more heavy duty/course the Fibre) the Extreme Floor Fibre has had no major improvements over the years. The version you know and love is still as effective as it is today!
Extreme Floor Fibre
Outdoor Floor Fibre (Current: Grey + Black Stripe)
Current label reads: "Extreme"
Previous colour: Yellow + Grey Stripe
Purpose: The Outdoor Floor Fibre is perfect for cleaning floors in outdoor living areas without chemicals, minimal water and zero waste. Great for uneven outdoor surfaces such as limestone, brick paving, non-oiled wood deck, hard-wearing tiles, industrial cement floors, pebbletex and concrete.
Key updates to current version of Outdoor Floor Fibre:
Fibre composition of the current version has changed to (80% polymide and 20% polyester)improving and allowing for even better cleaning power.

Why upgrade?
Now we've seen our fair share of well-loved ENJO Fibres and you may be thinking that they still work great, but over time and with regular use, the performance of our products will naturally decrease.
While our products are long lasting (up to 3 years), often ENJO users don’t realise their products aren’t performing as well as they used to. It’s a slow decrease in effectiveness you might not notice, until you replace your products with fresh new Fibres and wonder why you hadn't done it sooner!
No matter the Fibre, watch why it is important to update your Fibres every 3 years.
When to upgrade
1. Visual inspection
If you’ve had your Fibres for around 3 years, check for general wear. If there are areas where the Fibres are thinning, they need replacing. Many ENJO products at 3 years might not look that different, however, this doesn’t necessarily mean their cleaning performance is as effective.
2. Comparative Cleaning
When you’ve been cleaning your home with ENJO for some time, you’re probably not going to notice how the cleaning performance slowly decreases.
If you’re unsure if your ENJO products need replacing the best way to tell is to compare your old products with new ones.
ENJO HQ can arrange for a local Consultant to come to test new products in your home. A direct comparison of your products with new Fibres will help you decide if your Fibres are still working effectively or need replacing.
3. Check your date of purchase
If you happen to still have proof of your purchase – great! If this dates back longer than three years and you use your products regularly, it’s time to refresh your ENJO Fibres.
If you have no idea when you purchased your ENJO Fibres we would recommend contacting your Consultant who will have a record of your purchase.
If you’re not in contact with your Consultant or you purchased your Fibres online, simply contact our Customer Care Team who will be able to help track down the age of your ENJO product.
