On April 9, 2014, at the Viaduc des Arts, in Paris, an unprecedented and very original exhibition took place: "From the house to the art, brushes and brushes unveil their hidden talents". Visitors have discovered more than 400 brushes and brushes from the most popular to the most unknown.
Household brushes, toilet brushes, industrial brushes, paintbrushes and fine brushes: we learned everything about their manufacture, their materials and their uses. And because we are not all household aces, we propose to decrypt the household brooms that serve us on a daily basis.
Coconut broom, quackgrass or fringed: what uses should we reserve for them? And yes, every broom has a function and a specific purpose .


The Coco broom
The Coco broom is certainly the most widespread and the best selling of all brooms. Its coconut fiber bristles and long handle make it very practical to use.
Another advantage: the coconut broom can sweep large areas very quickly .
The coconut broom is particularly resistant to crushing and moisture, so it can be used indoors and outdoors .

½ head broom in silk or nylon
The ½ head silk or nylon broom is ideal for indoor cleaning .
Indeed, its hairs are very soft and leave no marks on the furniture or the floor during the sweeping.
It is also ideal for removing dust because it sticks to the fibers of its hair.

The broom quack
The quack grass broom is characterized by its short and very hard hairs . It allows a thorough cleaning of the floors of the house because its rigid brush removes all traces of dirt.
It is often used with a mop soaked in household products, for an even clearer result.

Rubber broom
This broom is recognizable by its short, rubbery hairs . It is very popular with hairdressers because it is ideal for removing hair and hair that clings perfectly to the plastic material.
Another important advantage of this broom: it does not lift the dust.

The mop
The mop is very hygienic because its long and flexible bristles are easily cleaned with hot water.
It is traditionally used with diluted bleach in water and can quickly clean large areas.

The road broom
The road broom is reserved for outdoor cleaning. Its highly resistant and rigid brush can sweep rough and hard surfaces , such as the floor of a terrace.
Used indoors, it may scratch your floors.
