Zusammenfassung:A non-woven, fibrous substrate is described for use in a cleaning article such as a wet wipe. The substrate has a toughness of less than 0.6 Nm, and comprises a proportion of long fibres, typically at least 2 or 3cm in length, which are capable of protruding from the surface of the substrate as a result of rubbing which takes place when the substrate is used for cleaning, whilst remaining attached to the substrate. The substrate is preferably made by hydroentangling using low power jets of water.
