Comparison
How This Compares With The Alternatives
| Jacquard woven towel | Jacquard holds the design in the weave and lasts longer, but limits colour count and increases cost. Reactive print allows full colour and photographic detail at lower unit cost. |
|---|---|
| Microfiber beach towel | Microfiber dries faster and is lighter to ship, but lacks the cotton hand feel and natural look that buyers expect for premium beach towels. |
| Surface screen print towel | Screen printing is cheaper but the ink cracks and fades faster. Fiber reactive print bonds with the fibre, surviving more washes without degradation. |
Use Guide
Use And Care Guide
- Wash below 40 degrees Celsius before first use to set the print
- Avoid prolonged soaking, which can weaken the print edges
- Wring lightly rather than twisting to prevent distortion of the printed pattern
- Use a laundry bag when machine washing to protect the print and hems
- Do not bleach and do not use chlorine detergent
