FAQs
What are the dimensions of the Nutshell Tea Towel?
The tea towel measures 70cm in width and 50cm in length.
Is this tea towel suitable for people with allergies?
Yes, the tea towel is Oeko-Tex Standard 100 Certified, meaning it has been tested for harmful substances and is safe for skin contact.
How should I wash this tea towel?
It is machine washable at a maximum temperature of 40°C. Avoid bleach and tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry.
What does '200gsm' mean?
GSM stands for 'grams per square meter,' which is a measure of fabric density. A 200gsm weight indicates a relatively thick and durable fabric, contributing to good absorbency.
Can I use this for handling hot pans?
While the 200gsm cotton offers some thickness, it is not designed as oven mitts or pot holders. Use dedicated heat-resistant kitchenware for handling hot items.
What is 'Sedex approved'?
Sedex approval indicates that the product's manufacturing process adheres to ethical trade standards, focusing on labor rights, health and safety, the environment, and business ethics.
Does the black color bleed?
It is recommended to wash dark colors separately for the first few washes to prevent any potential color transfer. Always refer to the care label for specific washing instructions.
Troubleshooting
Tea towel is not very absorbent after washing.
Ensure you have washed the tea towel before its first use. Fabric softeners can also reduce absorbency; avoid using them during washes.
Color fading after several washes.
Wash in cold water and avoid using harsh detergents or bleach. Always iron on a medium heat setting as recommended.
Stains are difficult to remove.
Treat stains promptly with a suitable stain remover for cotton fabrics before washing. Avoid high heat drying if stains persist, as it can set them.
