Long-Lasting Hand Towels

Nov 17th 2022

When looking around for hand towels, it is important to choose one from just touch or look,  below are some tips that one can use to find long-lasting hand towels:

Other than hand towels helping keep our hands dry and clean, they also play a key part in the feel and look of any establishment and are expected to withstand constant washing and drying. As such, when shopping for durable hand towels, it is important to consider other elements other than how a hand towel feels.

Manufacturers sometimes use chemicals like softeners to make their hand towels feel soft and nice. However, these hand towels often start to feel rough and course after a few washes. Therefore, it is essential to depend on things other than touch. For example, it is often advisable to check the care label to determine which material has been used in its manufacture. Cotton hand towels are often the best because they are more durable and last longer than towels made of other materials.

Egyptian cotton is also another excellent material to make a hand towel because it has longer threads, and, therefore, has better absorbency. It is also important to look at the density of the loops of the towel when determining the durability of the towel. If the loops are dense, the more strong the hand towel will be and the more absorbent it will be, and the better it will be for your bathroom.

An important secret to have when it comes to the longevity of a hand towel has to do with whether they have double hems stitched all around the towel edges or not. This acts as extra reinforcement that decreases fraying and will give the hand towel a longer life.
