GSM Guide – Understanding Towel Thickness
When choosing hand towels in bulk, GSM (grams per square metre) is a key factor to consider. This number tells you the density of the fabric — higher numbers mean thicker, more absorbent towels. British Wholesales UK stocks towels across every GSM level to suit different needs and budgets:
● 400–450 GSM Hand Towels
These towels are lightweight and fast-drying, perfect for environments that require frequent washing and quick reuse. They are cost-effective, quick-dry, easy to handle
● 500–600 GSM Hand Towels
This mid-weight range strikes the perfect balance between softness and absorbency. These towels are suitable for salons, guest rooms, and small hotels that need reliable performance with a touch of comfort.
● 700 GSM Hand Towels
Our thickest and most luxurious option. These heavyweight towels feel plush to the touch and offer maximum water absorption. They are preferred in high-end settings where presentation matters. These have Premium texture, superior absorbency, and elegant finish.
Hand Towel Materials We Offer
The material a towel is made from directly affects its softness, absorbency, sustainability, and drying speed. That’s why our hand towel range includes several high-performance fibres to meet the diverse needs of our customers:
● 100% Cotton
This is the most common material in our collection. Cotton hand towels are breathable, highly absorbent, and soft on the skin. Their natural fibres make them a reliable option for commercial and domestic use. These towels are durable, naturally soft, and retain quality after washes.
● Cotton Rich Blends
These towels combine cotton with polyester or other synthetic fibres to improve durability and reduce drying times. They are often more cost-effective than pure cotton and suitable for high-turnover environments. The budget-friendly towels offer fast drying and long-lasting colour retention.
● Bamboo Cotton Blends
Bamboo towels are growing in popularity thanks to their softness and eco-friendly properties. Bamboo fibres are naturally antibacterial and hypoallergenic, making them ideal for skin-contact use.
● Organic Cotton
Our organic cotton hand towels are made from certified organic fibres, free from harsh chemicals and pesticides. These are ideal for gifting, skincare services, and customers who value sustainability.
● Zero Twist Cotton
Zero-twist towels are crafted from long-staple cotton that doesn’t need to be twisted during the weaving process. This results in a fluffier texture and a towel that feels softer and dries faster. These extra soft towels offer high absorbency and plush finish.
● Recycled Yarn Towels
Perfect for cost-conscious businesses, these towels use recycled cotton yarns without compromising basic performance. They’re a practical solution for high-traffic or budget-driven environments.
Sizes and Styles
Our hand towels are available in standard sizes that work well for drying hands and face without taking up much space. Most commonly, hand towels range between 30x50 cm to 50x90 cm, making them easy to store, fold, and stack in compact storage areas. You’ll also find small guest towels and sweat towels in our range.
Eco-Friendly Options for Sustainable Buyers
For businesses seeking greener alternatives, we offer several hand towel lines made from organic cotton, bamboo blends, and recycled yarns. These towels meet environmental standards without compromising comfort or absorbency. Making the switch to eco-friendly textiles also strengthens your brand’s reputation with eco-conscious clients.
