Abstract
The invention concerns a flat floor-mop-type covering for cleaning floors, with a cover sheet which, on the upper surface, comprises pockets for securing it to a mounting and, in the central region of the lower surface, loops or strands. Strands are disposed on both sides of a seam of a peripheral strand strip. In this respect, the inner strands are short enough to insure that when they swell owing to the effect of moisture, they bend through approximately 90° in the direction of the surface to be wiped and form a type of brush ring.
