Beach Towels
100% Cotton Hippocampus and Shell Pattern Jacquard Beach Towel
A 400 GSM yarn dyed jacquard beach towel in 100% cotton, featuring a hippocampus and shell motif woven into the fabric rather than printed. At 70x140 cm, it fits standard beach loungers and maintains its design through repeated washing. The construction ensures the pattern remains intact, solving the issue of print fading that plagues surface-decorated towels. Buyers choose this when they need a durable, visually consistent towel for seasonal or promotional use.

Comparison
How This Compares With The Alternatives
| Reactive printed beach towel | Print gives sharper photographic artwork and a lower unit cost, but the design sits on the surface and fades sooner. Jacquard holds the design but limits colour count. |
|---|---|
| Velour beach towel | Velour has a smoother sheared face that shows print better, while jacquard keeps full loop pile on both sides and absorbs more water. |
| Microfiber beach towel | Microfiber is lighter, dries faster and ships cheaper, but does not give the cotton hand feel retail buyers expect at a premium price point. |
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 motif edges
- Wring lightly rather than twisting so the jacquard 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 beach towel?
2000 pcs per design. Splitting that quantity across several Pantone colours of the same jacquard is usually possible, so ask before you reduce the design count.
How long does a sample take and can I get my own artwork woven?
Ten days for a sample. A custom jacquard needs your artwork as a vector or high resolution file so the motif 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.
