What Are Melamine Pads?
Melamine pads are made from a uniquely structured foam with a microscopic open-cell network that acts like ultra-fine sandpaper at a surface level. When dampened with water, millions of tiny cells activate to lift and trap dirt, grease, limescale, and marks deep within the pad — pulling them away from the surface cleanly and safely.
Originally developed for insulation and soundproofing, melamine foam was discovered to be one of the most effective cleaning materials available — and Aura-Max has engineered it into professional-grade pads built for both everyday home use and heavy-duty commercial cleaning.
