In an industry driven by innovation, 2025 proved that the classics still have plenty of life in them. While waterfed systems and tech-forward solutions continue to shape the future of window cleaning, professional cleaners and dedicated DIYers alike leaned heavily on the reliability, precision, and comfort of traditional tools. This year brought standout upgrades in squeegees, washers, scrapers, and t-bars-each designed to make every stroke smoother and every job more efficient.

In this blog, we’ll highlight the top-selling traditional tools of 2025 and explore why they’ve earned a place in so many window cleaners’ kits. Whether you’re refreshing your setup or simply staying informed, these are the tools that topped the charts-and proved once again that skill paired with the right equipment never goes out of style.

#1-Ettore’s Replacement Squeegee Rubber proudly claims the top spot as the best-selling traditional window cleaning tool of 2025-and for good reason. Ettore takes exceptional pride in every precision-cut, hand-inspected strip, ensuring unmatched performance with every pull. As the most crucial piece of equipment in traditional window cleaning, nothing quite compares to the glide and clarity you get from a fresh piece of Ettore rubber.

#2-Sorbo’s Natural Replacement Squeegee Rubber comes in at the #2 spot among 2025’s top-selling traditional window cleaning tools. With Sorbo’s renowned wide-body channels remaining a technician favorite, it’s no surprise their natural rubber continues to shine. Consistently replacing your squeegee rubbers is the key to maintaining flawless, streak-free results-and Sorbo delivers reliability and fair pricing with every strip.

#3-Garelick Extension Poles take the #3 spot. The Garelick Quic-Loc Aluminum Telescopic Pole stands out with its lightweight, yet rugged construction, dependable twist-to-lock internal collars, and ACME threaded tip paired with a FREE wood taper tip for friction-fitting all your TRAD tools.
