Comparison
How This Compares With The Alternatives
| Woven jacquard beach towel | Jacquard holds the design in the weave, so it does not fade, but limits colour count and increases cost. Reactive print allows complex designs and full colour range 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 at a premium price point. |
| Plain dyed cotton towel | Plain dyed towels are cheaper and simpler, but lack the visual appeal of a printed starfish design and offer no differentiation in a competitive retail range. |
Use Guide
Use And Care Guide
- Wash below 40 degrees Celsius before first use to set the pile and prevent colour bleeding
- Avoid prolonged soaking, which can weaken the printed edges and reduce durability
- Wring lightly rather than twisting to prevent distortion of the printed pattern
- Use a laundry bag when machine washing to protect the printed surface and hems
- Do not bleach and do not use chlorine detergent, which can damage the reactive print
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 reactive 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. 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 compliance audit.
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.
