  • Towels and Cloths

Probably a trademark, so it should be written with a capitalized "P".

  • Serviettes et torchons
OBS

Selon la cliente qui nous a soumis ce terme au service SVP, il s'agit d'un tissu (probablement absorbant) utilisé pour faire des prélèvements de pétrole à des fins d'études sur la pollution. Notre proposition repose sur l'hypothèse que «Polycloth» est une marque de commerce. Il faudrait sans doute l'entourer de guillemets ou l'écrire en italique. Nous avons consulté un représentant à l'emploi de la Cie Sanivan.
