The cloth is made in Germany, printed in China (Yancheng city). This type of cloth is commonly referred to as a Swedish dish cloth as there are branded ones made in Sweden, however this one is made in Germany.

The waste product in the production of these dish cloths is from the printing (using eco-friendly dyes) in China. At the moment the empty ink cartridges are being discarded and go to landfill as there isn’t a circular disposal method available as yet. It is otherwise a zero waste product.
