A lint roller or lint remover is a roll of one-sided adhesive paper on a cardboard or plastic barrel that is mounted on a central spindle, with an attached handle. The device facilitates the removal of lint or other small fibres from most materials such as clothing, upholstery and linen. Once expended, the roll can typically be replaced with a refill roll.
This enables fast 360 degree rotation, which facilitates the easy removal of unsightly fibre (often animal hair). Lint rollers are available in many sizes.
The product is popular among dog and cat owners, as it will also remove dog and cat hair from fabrics, carpet etc.
