FAQs
What does 'zero twist cotton' mean?
Zero twist cotton refers to a weaving process where individual cotton fibers are laid parallel rather than twisted. This technique results in a much softer, fluffier, and more absorbent towel, as the fibers are open and allow water to be absorbed more readily.
What does 600gsm mean for a towel?
GSM stands for 'grams per square meter' and is a measure of the towel's density and weight. A 600gsm towel is considered thick, plush, and highly absorbent, offering a luxurious feel and excellent drying capabilities.
Can I use fabric softener with these towels?
While fabric softener can make towels feel softer, it can also leave a residue that reduces absorbency over time. Use it sparingly, or consider using white vinegar in the rinse cycle occasionally as a natural alternative to maintain softness and absorbency.
What items are included in the 6-piece set?
The 6-piece set includes two face cloths (30 x 30cm), two hand towels (50 x 85cm), and two bath towels (70 x 120cm), providing a complete range of sizes for your bathroom needs.
How often should I wash my towels?
For optimal hygiene and freshness, it's recommended to wash bath towels after 3-4 uses, hand towels every 1-2 days, and face cloths after each use. Frequent washing helps maintain their cleanliness and softness.
Are these towels pre-shrunk?
Cotton can naturally shrink slightly during the first few washes. However, washing at 30° C and tumble drying on a low setting as instructed will help minimize any potential shrinkage.
Troubleshooting
Towels feel less soft or absorbent after washing.
This can often be due to detergent or fabric softener buildup. Try washing the towels with hot water (if suitable for colorfastness, otherwise stick to 30° C) and a cup of white vinegar instead of detergent, then rinse thoroughly. Avoid excessive fabric softener.
Excessive lint shedding during use or washing.
New cotton towels, especially plush ones like this 600gsm set, can shed lint initially. Wash them separately for the first 2-3 cycles. Ensure your washing machine's lint trap and dryer's lint filter are cleaned before and after each cycle.
Color appears to be fading or dulling.
Ensure you are washing at the recommended 30° C with a color-safe detergent. Avoid using bleach or harsh chemicals. Washing with similar colors can also help maintain vibrancy.

Care Instructions:
Proper care is essential to maintain the softness, absorbency, and longevity of your cotton towels. Follow these guidelines carefully:
- Initial Wash: It is recommended to wash towels before their first use. This helps to set the fibers and reduce initial linting.
- Machine Wash: Wash your towels in a washing machine at 30° C. Using cooler water helps preserve the integrity of the cotton fibers and the towel's color.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid using excessive amounts, which can build up on fibers and reduce absorbency and softness.
- Fabric Softener: Use fabric softener sparingly, as it can coat the cotton fibers and decrease absorbency over time. Consider using white vinegar in the rinse cycle periodically as a natural fabric softener and to remove residue.
- Wash Separately: Wash towels separately or with similar items to prevent lint transfer and protect the color.
- Tumble Dry: The towels can be tumble dried on a low heat setting. Over-drying can damage fibers and reduce softness. Remove promptly once dry.
- Avoid Bleach: Do not use bleach, as it can weaken cotton fibers and fade the color.
- Ironing: Ironing is generally not necessary for towels. If desired, use a low heat setting.
