Bath and Hand Towels
100% Cotton Colored Stripe Dobby Pool Towel
A 450 GSM dobby pool towel woven in 100% cotton with a yarn dyed stripe pattern, sized at 80x160 cm for full coverage on poolside loungers. The construction uses 12s or 21s yarn counts for a soft hand feel and good water absorption, with the stripe pattern formed in the weave rather than printed. Buyers choose this towel when they need a durable, fadeless option for high-traffic pool or gym environments where repeated washing and handling are expected.

Comparison
How This Compares With The Alternatives
| Reactive printed stripe towel | Print allows more colour variation and lower unit cost, but the design fades faster and may crack after repeated washing. Dobby holds the pattern but limits colour count. |
|---|---|
| Microfiber pool towel | Microfiber dries faster and is lighter to ship, but lacks the cotton hand feel and natural absorption that buyers expect for premium pool use. |
| Plain woven cotton towel | Plain weave is cheaper and faster to produce, but lacks the visual interest and texture of a dobby stripe, which adds perceived value. |
Use Guide
Use And Care Guide
- Wash below 40 degrees Celsius before first use to set the pile
- Avoid prolonged soaking, which weakens the woven stripe edges
- Wring lightly rather than twisting so the dobby pattern does not distort
- Use a laundry bag when machine washing to protect the hems
- Do not bleach and do not use chlorine detergent
Questions About This Product
What is the minimum order quantity for this pool towel?
2000 pcs per design. Splitting that quantity across several Pantone colours of the same dobby pattern is usually possible, so ask before reducing the design count.
How long does a sample take and can I get my own artwork woven?
Ten days for a sample. A custom dobby needs your artwork as a vector or high resolution file so the pattern can be set on the loom.
What is the production lead time after we confirm the order?
45 days after the order is placed. Yarn dyeing to a new Pantone reference sits at the front of that window, so approve lab dips 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.
