Dust exit

I saw a cleaning cloth with the brand name 'Dust Exit'. It sounds strange to my ears. Is the word 'exit' appropriate in this context? Is this a name an English company would come up with?

It sounds a bit odd to me, too. But it is appropriate. The cloth is the "exit door" for dust.

I understand it, but it doesn't really "ring" as a good name. In the US there is a brand called Endust, which makes much more sense to me.

Thank you both, that was helpful. Would you say it's foreign-sounding too (I think it comes from China), or just not a good name?
