To determine a good towel, it is also important to consider the grammage of cotton used in the towel which will be referred to as the number of grams per square meter. This is an excellent gauge of both quality, absorbency and resiliency of your towel. Anything in between 450g/m2 up to 550g/m2, 500g/m2 is ideal. However be advised that the highest grammage does not necessarily mean better quality.. you need to bear in mind that anything above 550g is very heavy and will therefore take a lot longer to dry after use or washing.
We hope that our guide has helped and that you now wish to have our range of milkandhoney towels in your home. Here are some tips to keep them gorgeous for longer;
• Alternate the use of more than one set to allow adequate time for laundering and to preserve the life of the towel.
• New towels should be washed before use, this makes them softer and more absorbent.
• Wash light and dark colours separately. The use of a non-biological detergent containing no optical whiteners, bleaching agents or enzymes that can cause colours to fade or create discoloration would be more appropriate.
• Use only a small amount of fabric softener (too much lessens the absorbency of the towel as it 'glazes' the cotton loops with a coating of silicon-like substance).
• Dry on the line when possible, then when they are almost dry pop them in the tumble dryer for 5-10 minutes on a low heat to give that little extra softness and downy feel.
