Egyptian Cotton Plain Dyed Towel With Dobby Border
A 350 GSM plain dyed bath towel made from 100% Egyptian cotton with a dobby border woven into the edge. At 70x140 cm it fits standard bathroom racks and provides a soft, absorbent surface that resists fading through repeated washing. The dobby border adds a subtle texture and structure to the edge, preventing fraying during industrial laundering. Buyers choose this towel when they need a clean, durable bath towel with a consistent hand feel and no surface print that can wear off.

How This Compares With The Alternatives
| Reactive printed bath towel | Print gives sharper design detail and lower unit cost, but the design sits on the surface and fades after repeated washing. Plain dyed avoids this but limits visual variety. |
|---|---|
| Microfiber bath towel | Microfiber dries faster and is lighter to ship, but does not offer the same absorbency or natural cotton feel that buyers expect at a premium price point. |
| Towel with stitched border | Stitched borders are cheaper to produce but fray and unravel after repeated industrial laundering. Dobby border is woven in and lasts longer. |
Use And Care Guide
- Wash below 40 degrees Celsius before first use to set the pile
- Avoid prolonged soaking, which weakens the woven dobby border
- Wring lightly rather than twisting so the dobby edge does not distort
- Use a laundry bag when machine washing to protect the hems
- Do not bleach and do not use chlorine detergent
