Quality matters when it comes to your bath towels.

When it comes to purchasing bath towels, not all towels are created equal. The quality of your bath towel can make a big difference in how it feels, how it absorbs water, and how long it lasts.

In this blog, we’ll share tips on how to choose the best quality bath towel and how to care for them to ensure their longevity.

Material Matters
The first factor to consider in choosing a bath towel is the material. A good bath towel is made from high-quality materials that ensure softness, durability, and absorbency. 100% combed cotton or a blend of natural fibres is a good choice for a towel. Adding synthetics to a towel affects the way it absorbs and dries, so it’s best to go for a 100% cotton or bamboo towel. A good quality towel will dry you off quickly and should remain soft wash after wash.

Weight and Size
The weight and size of the towel are also important factors to consider. A heavier towel tends to be more absorbent and luxurious, however, it’s also important to make sure the size of the bath towel is large enough to wrap comfortably around your body. Towel weight is measured in grams per square meter (GSM), the higher the GSM, the thicker and more luxurious the towel will be.

Durability
A high-quality towel should be easy to care for and last for years. A good quality towel will retain its thickness, shape, and softness over time.

Aesthetic Appeal
Lastly, the aesthetic appeal of the towel should also be considered, such as choosing a towel that matches your existing decor, colour palette, and accessories. Bath towels are available in a variety of colours, so you can easily find one that matches your style.

Care and Maintenance
Once you have found the perfect towel, it is important to care for it properly. Here are a few guidelines to help you care for your towels:

  • Wash your towels before using them to remove any residue from the manufacturing process.

  • Avoid using fabric softeners when washing or drying your towels, as these substances can reduce absorbency over time.

  • Use warm water and a gentle detergent to wash your towels. Avoid using bleach or harsh cleaning agents that can cause discolouration and damage.

  • Line dry outside in the sun and fresh air or tumble dry your towels on low heat. Over-drying can cause them to become stiff and scratchy.

Investing in a high-quality bath towel made from natural fibres like cotton or bamboo, choosing the right weight and size, and giving it proper care and maintenance will make a big difference in the towel’s overall feel and longevity.
