Bath and Hand Towels
Plain Dyed Towel With Wide Dobby Hem
A 400 GSM plain dyed terry bath towel in 100% cotton, woven with a wide dobby hem for durability and a clean finish. At 70x140 cm it fits standard bath and hotel use, and because the colour is dyed into the yarn before weaving, it resists fading after repeated washing. Buyers choose this towel when they need a consistent, wash-fast colour and a reinforced edge that holds up under daily use in hotels or fitness centres.

Comparison
How This Compares With The Alternatives
| Reactive printed bath towel | Print allows complex artwork and lower unit cost, but the design fades faster and can crack after repeated washing. Plain dyed holds colour but limits visual complexity. |
|---|---|
| Microfiber bath towel | Microfiber dries faster and is lighter to ship, but lacks the cotton hand feel and absorbency that buyers expect for premium bath use. |
| Standard hem towel | Standard hem frays more under frequent laundering. Wide dobby hem adds durability and reduces edge wear over time. |
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 hem and can cause colour bleed
- Wring lightly rather than twisting to preserve the dobby edge and fabric structure
- Use a laundry bag when machine washing to protect the hem and edges
- Do not bleach and do not use chlorine detergent
