Towels can be seen everywhere in our daily life. We can use it for bathing and cleaning. And let’s see some main kinds of towels.
1. Bath towels
Bath towels are medium-sized towels used to dry up the body after a shower or bath. Bath towels often measure 28 x 55 inches on average and are commonly found on towel bars inside the bathroom or outside.
Bath towels aren’t large enough to wrap around the body for most adults. The best materials for bath towels are cotton, cotton polyester blend, bamboo, and linen. These materials absorb well and also dry quickly.
2. Face towels
A face towel is a small towel used to dry the face after washing. It can also be used to remove makeup or wash the face in general. Face towels are square and smaller than washcloths.
Face towels need to be absorbent, soft, and easy to clean. They’re best made of cotton, synthetic microfibers, and bamboo. These materials are easy to keep clean, soft, and highly absorbent.
3. Gym towels
Gym towels also called workout towels or sweat towels, are medium-sized towels used in the gym to wipe the sweat off the body. Gym towels need to be highly absorbent and will thus mostly be made out of cotton, bamboo, linen, or microfiber materials.
Gym towels can be of any size with a lot of users simply going for bath towels given their high absorbency levels. They need to be of the right size to avoid being too large and cumbersome, or too small and ineffective in cleaning sweat.
4. Paper towels
A paper towel is a towel made of paper that is absorbent and disposable and meant to be used only once. Paper towels are available as pre-cut and folded layers or as rolls. Given how paper towels are used, they’re the most hygienic since they’re not used more than once.
Paper towels are available in many shapes, sizes, and colors. They also come with different scents, qualities, and even patterns. They’re mostly used in the kitchen to wipe dirt off surfaces and even dry up utensils.
