P1 - Product packaging & sustainability
Category description
This test category examines the quality and sustainability of the original packaging in all relevant dimensions: protective effect, information content, material ecology, volume efficiency and sensory safety. It is assessed whether the packaging reliably protects the product from damage, provides all necessary information clearly and completely, uses resources efficiently and enables environmentally friendly disposal. High-quality packaging not only contributes to product safety, but also strengthens consumer confidence and reduces environmental burdens.
Unternehmen & Kommunikation
Category description
The evaluation of a manufacturer/dealer includes the legal form, which provides information on liability and capital structure, as well as the location, which has an influence on communication, in particular whether communication can be carried out in German and without time difference. It is also checked how easily important information such as imprint or customer reviews is accessible and whether a professional website is available. The production location is analysed in terms of standards and delivery times, while accessibility via various communication channels is assessed in terms of response time and accessibility.
The company looks very reputable. The choice of location focuses as much as possible on proximity to consumers. There are many options available with regard to accessibility and communication; adverse effects or circumstances for consumers are not to be expected.
P2 - Scope of delivery & accessories
Category description
This is where it is determined whether a product is delivered complete, intact and immediately ready for use. The completeness, functionality of all parts, the quality of the instructions, internal safety and warning information, ergonomics and the accuracy of the accessories are checked. A complete, functional package avoids delays, increases customer satisfaction and reduces complaints or returns.
Logistik
Category description
The evaluation also includes shipping, which checks which regions the retailer delivers to, whether shipping is free of charge and is subject to conditions. It is also analysed whether the goods are shipped from a location in Germany/EU or from a non-EU country. Shipping packaging is assessed in terms of space optimization, protection and materials. When processing returns, it is crucial whether the return address is in Germany or the EU, as this influences logistical costs and the carbon footprint.
The logistical criteria, including shipping packaging, materials and return options, are met very satisfactorily. The focus on a very good consumer experience is very high!
P3 - Material quality & visible safety
Category description
This test category assesses the materials used, their processing and compliance with visible safety requirements. Stability, surface quality, absence of harmful substances, material resistance and the legally required safety markings are tested. The aim is a product that is durable, robust and free from identifiable risks and thus meets the requirements of safety and quality in daily use.
Produktverpackung
Category description
To evaluate the original packaging (OVP), it is first checked whether the product is delivered in the usual commercial packaging that the customer would expect. A distinction is made between whether the OVP only serves as protection, as with electrical appliances, or is directly suitable for use, as with cleaning products. It is also examined whether the packaging offers sufficient protection against damage and environmental influences, including a drop test from a height of 1 meter. The materials and any odors in OVP are also assessed in terms of sustainability and environmental friendliness. The size of the package should be appropriate to avoid unnecessary empty spaces. Finally, it is checked whether the OVP is equipped with a sealing mechanism that prevents unnoticed opening and possible manipulation.
The product packaging makes a very good impression and offers very good protective properties.
P4 - Ease of use & ergonomics
Category description
The focus here is on user-friendliness. Operating logic, handling, grip and holding comfort, adjustment options and points of view and access points are assessed. It is investigated how intuitively and fatigue-free a product can be used in different application situations. Ergonomic, clear operation increases safety, efficiency and satisfaction in use.
Inhalt & Lieferumfang
Category description
The evaluation of the scope of delivery checks whether all content promised according to the description is actually included. At the point of start-up, it is examined whether the product is immediately ready for use or whether the consumer must first make his own preparations. Bonus elements such as attached tools, assembly materials, batteries or discount vouchers that improve the user experience are also recorded. In addition, it is checked whether user manuals are available if the product is not intuitive to use and whether they are available in multiple languages or in digital form (e.g. via QR code).
The package provides a direct route to commissioning.
P5 - Performance & efficiency
Kategoriebeschreibung

The Shark Twisted Loop drying towel clearly focuses on drying vehicles quickly, gently and, if possible, in one go — regardless of whether the paint is sealed or not. From a consumer's point of view, it is crucial whether the large-format, heavy microfiber cloth meets these requirements in everyday life and whether handling and care requirements match regular vehicle washing.

Application: The initial contact was extremely positive. Even when unpacked, the cloth looks very high-quality, neatly processed and free from production residues. The function is self-explanatory — spread, hang up, unplug — without the need for instructions. At 50 × 80 cm and a weight of 1400 GSM, the cloth is deliberately generously sized, but remains flexible enough to work safely on mirror housings, door handles or contours. The cleanly stitched, rounded edges avoid hard transitions that could be critical on sensitive paints.

Impression in everyday use: On a sealed vehicle, the cloth shows off its strengths almost ideally: Water rolls off strongly, leaving only residual drops, which the Shark Twisted Loop easily absorbs. The result is a dry, streak-free paint without the need to wrung out in between. The gliding behavior is very pleasant — the cloth can be guided across the surface without significant resistance, which keeps the effort required low. On unsealed paint, the situation is naturally more demanding, as there is a continuous film of water. The cloth shows a remarkably high absorbency and absorbs large quantities of water reliably; in the test, the water absorption was over 1.5 liters, which is noticeable in the increasing weight. One or two squeezing processes are therefore useful before the entire vehicle has dried streak-free. Even during intensive load tests — vigorous wringing, repeated rubbing on various surfaces — fibers and seams remained stable without fraying or fiber loss.

Care & durability: As part of the care process, the cloth was highly durable: Several machine washes did not affect the fiber density or absorbency. It is recommended to use a suitable microfiber detergent, but fabric softener should be avoided as it can stick the fibers and reduce water absorption. Overall, the product gives the impression that it remains functionally stable over a longer period of time, even when used frequently.

Conclusion from a consumer perspective: For users who place particular value on quick, paint-friendly drying, the chemicalworkz Shark Twisted Loop drying towel proves to be an extremely powerful solution. On sealed paints, it allows particularly convenient, almost effortless drying; on unsealed surfaces, it impresses with its enormous suction power — with an acceptable additional weight due to the absorbed water. In combination with the high quality of workmanship and good care properties, the cloth is a highly recommended choice from a consumer perspective both for ambitious private users and for frequent use.
