Bath and Hand Towels
100% Cotton Popcorn Bath Towel With Stripe Border
A 400 GSM 100% cotton popcorn bath towel with a woven stripe border, sized at 71x147 cm. The popcorn pile gives a soft hand feel and good water absorption, while the woven solid colour construction ensures the colour does not fade after repeated washing. The stripe border is formed in the weave, not printed, so it holds up through industrial laundering. Buyers choose this towel when they need a consistent, durable bath towel for hotel, retail or promotional use without the risk of print degradation.

Comparison
How This Compares With The Alternatives
| Reactive printed bath towel | Print gives sharper detail and lower unit cost, but the design fades after repeated washing. Woven stripe holds up through repeated laundering. |
|---|---|
| Microfiber bath towel | Microfiber dries faster and is lighter, but does not offer the same natural feel or water absorption as 100% cotton. |
| Velour bath towel | Velour has a smoother face that shows print better, but popcorn pile gives better water retention and a softer hand feel on the back side. |
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 border edges
- Wring lightly rather than twisting to prevent distortion of the jacquard weave
- Use a laundry bag when machine washing to protect the hems and border
- Do not bleach and do not use chlorine detergent
Questions About This Product
What is the minimum order quantity for this bath towel?
2000 pcs per design. Splitting across multiple Pantone colours of the same jacquard is usually possible—ask before reducing design count.
How long does a sample take and can I get my own artwork woven?
Ten days for a sample. A custom jacquard requires your artwork as a vector or high-resolution file to 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 be used 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.
