A 350 GSM woven beach towel in 100% cotton with a reactive printed blue dolphin motif, sized 70x140 cm.

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 more complex designs at lower unit cost. |
|---|---|
| Microfiber beach towel | Microfiber dries faster and is lighter, but lacks the cotton hand feel and natural look that retail buyers expect at a premium price point. |
| Surface screen printed towel | Screen printing is cheaper but less durable. Reactive print bonds with the fibre, reducing fade and improving wash performance. |
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 dye bond
- 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
Questions About This Product
What is the minimum order quantity for this beach towel?
2000 pcs per design. Splitting that quantity across several Pantone colours of the same print is usually possible, so ask before reducing the design count.
How long does a sample take and can I get my own artwork printed?
Ten days for a sample. A custom reactive print needs your artwork as a vector or high resolution file so the design can be prepared for printing.
What is the production lead time after we confirm the order?
45 days after the order is placed. Lab dip approval and printing setup sit at the front of that window, so approve samples quickly.
Which test reports come with the shipment?
Oeko-Tex Standard 100 covers the fabric, and dyestuffs are AZO free to USA and EU market standard. BSCI and SEDEX cover the social audit side.
How is the towel packed for retail?
One piece per pp bag and 30 pieces per carton as standard. Header cards, hang tags, woven labels and retail polybags can replace that if you supply the artwork.
What are the payment terms?
30% T/T deposit with the order and 70% balance before shipment, or an L/C at sight.
