Bath and Hand Towels
Yarn Dyed Classic Stripe Dobby Bath Towel
A 500 GSM woven bath towel in 100% cotton with a classic stripe pattern formed by yarn dyeing and dobby weaving. At 70x140 cm it fits standard bathroom racks, and because the colour is dyed into the yarn before weaving, the stripe remains sharp after repeated washing. Buyers choose it when they need a durable towel that maintains its appearance across multiple wash cycles without fading or bleeding.

Comparison
How This Compares With The Alternatives
| Reactive printed stripe towel | Print gives sharper colour contrast and lower unit cost, but the stripe fades after repeated washing. Yarn dyed holds the colour but limits the number of colours in the pattern. |
|---|---|
| Plain woven bath towel | Plain weave is cheaper and faster to produce, but lacks the visual interest and texture of a dobby stripe. Dobby adds a subtle design without extra cost. |
| Microfiber bath towel | Microfiber dries faster and is lighter to ship, but does not offer the same cotton hand feel or absorbency that buyers expect in a premium bath towel. |
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 stripe is usually possible, so ask before reducing the design count.
How long does a sample take and can I get my own artwork woven?
Ten days for a sample. A custom dobby design requires 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.
