The classification of towels

There are many varieties of towels, but they can generally be classified into bath towels, face towels, square and floor towels, and beach towels. Among them, the square towel is a cleaning product, which is characterized by square pure cotton textiles, fluffy loops and soft texture. To use, wet and wipe the skin for a stain-removing, clean-cooling effect. Other towels are basically used to absorb moisture from the body. For example, bath towels are used after bathing, and face towels are generally used to dry hands after washing hands. The floor towel is spread on the ground and stepped on it after bathing, which can absorb the moisture on the feet and prevent the feet from directly touching the cold ground.

A towel is a fabric with a loop structure in which three system yarns are intertwined. The yarns of these three systems are wool warp, ground warp and weft yarn. With the development of science and technology, warp knitted towel fabrics have appeared again. This kind of towel terry is firmly consolidated, but the form is relatively simple. Most of the towels on the market are woven towels. The world’s first towel was born in 1850 in the United Kingdom, with a history of more than 170 years. It has developed from the simplest single-color flat wool towel to satin jacquard, printing, untwisted towel, cut pile towel, etc. It is the textile product with the shortest development time and the fastest development speed.

Raw material process

Towels are woven fabrics with terry piles or terry piles and cut piles on the surface of textile fibers (such as cotton). Generally, pure cotton yarns are used as raw materials, and a small amount of blended yarns or chemical fiber yarns are used. Made of towel loom. According to the weaving method, it is divided into knitting and weaving; according to the purpose, it is divided into face towel, pillow towel, bath towel, towel quilt, sofa towel, etc. In addition, there is also towel cloth, which is used for sewing clothes. The surface is densely looped, soft to the touch, strong in water absorption and water storage, and has good wear resistance and warmth retention properties. Common colors include all-white towels, plain-colored towels, color-striped towels, printed towels, mercerized towels, spiral towels, jacquard towels, and jacquard printed towels, etc., which are textiles that are used to scrub items and can be in direct contact with the human body (such as square towel, face towel, bath towel, towel quilt, etc.).
