Comparison
How This Compares With The Alternatives
| Reactive printed bath towel | Print allows for complex artwork and lower unit cost, but the design fades faster and may crack after repeated washing. Dobby ribbed is more durable but limited to solid or simple textured patterns. |
|---|---|
| Microfiber bath towel | Microfiber dries faster and is lighter to ship, but lacks the natural cotton feel and absorbency that buyers expect in a premium bath towel. |
| Plain woven cotton towel without ribbing | Ribbed weave improves water absorption and gives a more textured, premium feel. Non-ribbed versions are flatter and may feel less substantial |
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 dobby construction is possible—ask before reducing the number of designs.
How long does a sample take and can I get my own design woven?
Samples take 10 days. Custom dobby or jacquard patterns require your artwork as a vector or high-resolution file for loom setup.
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 starts the timeline, 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 social compliance.
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 supplied if you provide 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.
