  • What is the #1 selling plain sponge in America?
    O-Cel-O™ Handy Sponge is the best selling plain sponge in America.
  • Why should you choose an O-Cel-O™ plain sponge? O-Cel-O's plain sponges are:
  1. Resistant to bacterial odors because of StayFresh™ antimicrobial technology by 3M.
  2. Highly absorbent.
  3. Strong and durable.
  4. Brightly colored and in unique shapes.
  • How can a sponge hold liquid if it's full of holes?
    The holes, or pores, expose more of the sponge's absorbent surface area to the liquid. Holes are put in sponges on purpose to improve the products' absorbency.
  • Are there really differences between O-Cel-O No Scratch, Heavy Duty, and All Surface scrub sponges?  Yes, 3M has developed special scrubbing materials for different types of cleaning jobs. No Scratch is ideal for cleaning delicate surfaces, such as glassware, china and bathroom fixtures. All Surface is for safe scouring on many household surfaces without scratching including non-stick cookware. Heavy Duty is for the toughest cleaning jobs, including cast-iron and baked-on messes.
  • Where can I find O-Cel-O™ sponges and sponge scrubbers?
    O-Cel-O™ products can be found almost anywhere - grocery stores, general merchandise stores, discount stores, and drug stores.
