The Winco SP-SC63 is a 6-inch dual-surface scrub sponge with a cellulose sponge body and non-scratch scrubber pad on one side, the standard daily-driver kitchen sponge for commercial dish stations. The non-scratch design means it can be used on non-stick coated cookware, glass, ceramic, and any surface that would be damaged by stainless wire scrubbers.

Why Dual Surface

The cellulose side handles general cleaning - dishes, surfaces, light residue. The scrubber pad handles tougher work - dried food, stuck-on residue, baked-on grease that the sponge alone cannot remove. Having both surfaces in one tool means staff do not need to swap tools mid-task. The non-scratch texture means the same sponge works for delicate items (non-stick pans, glasses) and regular items (stainless cookware, dishes) without risk of damage.

When to Step Up

For seriously baked-on residue (cast iron carbon, broiler grates, burnt-on grease), step up to a stainless steel scrubber. For sanitization-only applications, use a dedicated sanitizing cloth instead of a sponge (sponges hold bacteria in the cellulose matrix). For general daily cleaning, the SP-SC63 is the right tool.

Care

Rinse thoroughly after each use. Replace every 1-2 weeks in heavy service, or sooner if visibly degraded. Sponges that develop sour smells from bacterial growth should be replaced immediately. Microwave or run through a dishwasher cycle for routine sanitization.
