Japan Garden Bamboo Towels

Bamboo Towel 'Bamboo' has been praised as The natural green, eco-friendly textile material of the 21st Century". 'Bamboo' thrives naturally without the use of pesticides. It is a natural cellulose fibre which is converted into yarns without the addition of chemicals, and is 100% biodegradable in soil by micro-organism and sunshine, causing no pollution to the environment. The unique make-up of the 'Bamboo' fibre, whose cross section is filled with various micro-gaps and micro-holes gives it a moisture absorption rate three times that of Cotton. 'Bamboo' fibre is anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and anti static. Its natural antibiosis function keeps bacterium away so that it won't produce bad odours. Our 'Bamboo' towels have an ultra-soft feel, yet own a high abrasion-proof capacity, making them extremely durable and hard wearing. They are woven using Bamboo for the pile (loops) and Cotton for the backing, giving a total fibre content of 70% Bamboo, and 30% Cotton by weight. Care Instructions Our towels come to you straight from the Loom, and it is essential that they are laundered before use, as they have not been subjected to any wet processes such as scouring, bleaching or dyeing after weaving. Therefore careful handling needs to be taken with your new 'Bamboo' towel to prevent snagging of the loops (broken finger nails, rings, zips etc.) prior to its first laundering, when the slight amount of shrinkage that takes place binds the loops more firmly into the cloth, making them ready for service. The towels should be laundered at 40°C (delicate wash), rinsed thoroughly, and then tumble dried if desired at a low to medium heat setting. We do not recommend the use of fabric softeners for towels, as they tend to block-up the holes in the fibres leading to reduced absorbency. 32x32cm Face /Wash cloth 50x96cm Hand Towel 72x137cm Bath Towel 94x168cm XL Bath Sheet Please note - this is a completely natural, unbleached product direct from the loom, it will shrink by approx 10% in length and width.
