Soft absorbent hand towels are a must in our everyday lives and contribute towards good bathroom hygiene habits. With so many colours, styles and fabrics to choose from, make your hand towels a stylish addition to your bathroom.
Stylish and colourful fresh hand towels in a bathroom when guests visit is a lovely attention to detail and certainly good hygiene. A pile of freshly laundered hand towels on the vanity in a restaurant, bar or spa signals a healthy habit we feel good about!
Having a good supply of hand towels readily available means that you can change your hand towels regularly and always have a supply of clean ones in the linen cupboard. Take a moment to think about the number of times you wash your hands every day. We use them in the bathroom, in the guest loo, in the kitchen, at work. We’ve all experienced times when we’ve washed our hands and then having looked at a well used slightly grubby looking hand towel have opted for the shake dry instead!
When using a cotton to dry your hands, always hang the towel up to dry after use (as recommended by healthdirect.gov.au) and be sure to launder hand towels frequently. Choose hand towels with hanging hoops for both bathroom and kitchen hand towels to increase the chances that the user will hang the towel up after use!
White hand towels look luxurious and because white doesn’t hide the dirt, you may be reminded to wash them more frequently! We have a range in white and also hand towels to add a splash of colour to your bathroom.Â
A good supply of hand towels in the home ensures fresh towels are always to hand!
And of course you can choose face washers, bath towels, bath sheets and bath mats to go with them or in different colours to add a pop to your bathroom.
Budget tip! Hand towels are the perfect size to use as a gym towel or golf towel and come in colours perfect to use when you're out and about.Â
