How good are microfibre towels?
Microfibre Bath Towels are undoubtedly the best towels on the market. These super absorbent towels dry super efficiently using capillary action and can absorb up to 4 times as much as conventional cotton towels. In addition, the microfibre draws in moisture, removing it from the body with ease. These towels are also super quick to dry and lightweight, making them ideal for travelling.
* We have added the white fleck to our microfibre towels to help prevent the dye from bleeding when washed.

Which size best suits your needs
The smaller size, 100 x 50 cm, is perfect for either a hand towel or a hair towel.
The intermediate size 150 x 75 cm is your standard bath towel size.
The larger size, 180 x 90 cm, is a bath sheet/beach towel size.
What does GSM mean?
Grams per square metre (GSM) is the density of the microfibre product. No matter what type of weave or length of the pile a cloth has, the higher the GSM, the more suited it is to absorb moisture.
Lint-free microfibre towels
There's nothing worse than drying with a microfibre towel that leaves fabric lint everywhere. The cause of this is poor manufacturing. Microfibre fabric requires 'splitting', which breaks down the fibres allowing the material to become soft, delicate, and absorbent. However, when the machinery & caustic soda splits the thread too much, the material will slowly break down and lint. We work with the highest graded machinery to ensure this does not happen with ours.
How to care for microfibre bath towels
Please ensure you wash our darker colour towels on their own on the first couple of washes, as the dye may bleed.
We recommend washing our towels at around 40 degrees Celsius. We make our towels of the highest quality fabrics, which allows washing up to 95 degrees Celsius. However, shrinkage will occur in the initial few washes, up to 5%. Also, our towels can be tumbled dried, which can be beneficial as it opens the fibres. Finally, unlike most microfibre towels, our threads will not burn at elevated temperatures.
Fabric softeners/conditions can be used when washing our microfibre towels.
