Bath and Hand Towels
Soft Plain Dyed Terry Towel With Dobby Border
A 350 GSM plain dyed terry bath towel with a dobby border, woven in 100% cotton. At 70x140 cm it fits standard bath and hotel use. The dobby border adds a subtle texture contrast without increasing cost. Because the colour is dyed into the yarn before weaving, the towel resists fading after repeated washing, which is critical for hotel and retail buyers who face high turnover and laundering cycles.

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 the colour but limits visual complexity. |
|---|---|
| Microfiber bath towel | Microfiber dries faster and weighs less, but does not give the cotton hand feel that retail buyers expect at a mid-tier price point. |
| Velour bath towel | Velour has a smoother surface and better print clarity, but the sheared pile wears faster and is less absorbent than terry. |
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 border 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 dobby border needs your artwork as a vector or high resolution file so the 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.
