What is Lint

Lint is an accumulation of textile fibers and other material on and around clothing. Along with these clothing fibers, human and animal hair along with pollen, skin cells and microorganisms also make their home on clothes.

Why is Lint undesirable and needs to be removed

• Lint which sticks to your clothes, easily escape into the atmosphere and can be inhaled by anyone in the surroundings leading to health problems and diseases of the lung. The lint thus inhaled may also carry dangerous viruses and bacteria
• Lint on your clothes can actually create serious damage to delicate mechanical devices, and hence the use of anti-static overcoats in such sensitive manufacturing areas
• Lint presents an ugly sight on dresses and can result in fashion disasters. Cosmetically the presence of Lint on your dress sends out signals of bad grooming and is not desirable at all
• The presence of Lint on some clothing may actually be harmful to the clothing itself and damage it
• Lint can be extremely inconvenient and embarrassing to people on the go, who want to go up on the stage for a presentation and be embarrassed by a lump of lint on the blazer

How to remove Lint

Now that there is a just case about the undesirability of Lint, the question that arises is, how can Lint be removed?

There are many ways that are prevalent for the removal of Lint. These include using a brush, washing the affected clothes in clear water without using detergents, using a lint roller, using a pumice stone, etc..

Flint Arrives

As an answer to all the questions posed by the vagaries of Lint, a new stylized lint roller named Flint has been launched. The aesthetically designed rollers which are slim, stylish and elegant can quietly fit into small handbags. They look like lipstick tubes and come in different color shades to match with other fashion accessories.

Flint combines the utility of a household lint roller with the convenience of a travel lint roller. In fact, Flint is an ideal travel companion as it is much smaller than the average travel lint roller but packs in much more power.

No wonder Flint has won the Conde Nast Travel Essential award. Flint has also won the Red Dot International Design Concept Award as well as the Good Design award from The Chicago Athenaeum Museum of Architecture and Design. Flint has also featured in the Oprah magazine.

The Flint Experience

We were privileged to have a firsthand Flint experience. At the outset, we were impressed by the aesthetically designed rollers. Then the simplicity of operation bowled us over. With just a small twist of the bottom cap of the container, the roller extends out to twice its length and can be closed with a gentle tap on the top. There is a small protective sheet on the roller, which we removed and ran the roller over blazers, jackets, bedspreads, curtains and even on the surface of a table. We were amazed at the amount of lint that stuck to the roller. Apparently, Flint can be used on everything and anything!

Flint is indeed a retractable and refillable lint roller. It is easy to change the roller without having to buy a new Flint device. To change refills, just pull off the refill and then pop on the next one. It is that easy! Each refill comes with 30 reusable sheets. High-quality Japanese paper has been used. Flint lint paper is protected for reuse, and the Flint core is 100% recycled. Flint lint roller is retractable, reusable, refillable and recyclable.

As we are constantly on the move, Flint has now become a part of our travel essential too. Flint Lint Roller is a compact travel accessory. It is retractable and refillable. It removes lint, dust and pet hair from clothing and other surfaces. Even pet owners will love this.
