Bath and Hand Towels
Plain Dyed Terry Towel With Dobby Border and Hem
A 350 GSM plain dyed terry bath towel with a dobby border and hem, woven in 100% cotton. At 70x140 cm it fits standard bath and hotel use, and because the colour is dyed into the yarn before weaving, it resists fading through repeated washing. Buyers choose it when they need a consistent, durable towel for hotel linen, retail gift sets, or sports club use where wash fastness and a clean edge matter.

Comparison
How This Compares With The Alternatives
| Reactive printed bath towel | Print allows for complex artwork and lower unit cost, but the design sits on the surface and fades faster. Plain dyed holds colour but limits visual detail. |
|---|---|
| Microfiber bath towel | Microfiber dries faster and is lighter to ship, but lacks the cotton hand feel and absorbency that buyers expect at a mid-tier price point. |
| Velour bath towel | Velour has a smoother surface and better print visibility, but the sheared pile wears down faster and the edge is less durable than a woven dobby hem. |
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 so the dobby hem does not distort
- Use a laundry bag when machine washing to protect the hem 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 that quantity across several Pantone colours of the same dobby construction is usually possible, so ask before reducing the design count.
How long does a sample take and can I get my own design woven?
Ten days for a sample. A custom design needs your artwork as a vector or high resolution file so the dobby pattern 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.
