How simple to identify the quality of hotel towels? Look down

May 17, 2024

HOTEL TOWELS ARE GOOD OR BAD A certain degree determines the occupancy rate, so when we choose towels

we must learn to identify towels from all aspects. Next, let's talk about the three key points that the hotel should pay attention 

to when choosing towels from three aspects: the density of towels, the main performance identification and the internal 

appearance quality.


1.TOWEL DENSITY


:The density of the towel is one of the important factors in determining the quality of the towel. In general, the higher the density of the 

towel, the better the quality, but not necessarily the higher the better, but also consider the difficulty of weaving and feel comfort.


:The density of towel fabric is generally controlled by the reed number, which refers to the number of reed teeth per two inches of 

length, so the higher the reed number, the higher the warp density of the fabric, and the strength will increase. High-density towels 

not only have the characteristics of long life, and feel thick, full pattern, but because of low weaving efficiency, relatively high price.


High-density towels have two major advantages over medium-density towels:


1. Due to the increase in warp and weft density, it means that the density of interweaving points also increases, which directly improves 

the jacquard effect of the towel, which is manifested as: The hotel logo in the towel is more clearly defined, with higher clarity, and the 

expressive force of the store name is more delicate, which is more conducive to accurately conveying the connotation of the overall 

pattern, highly reappearing the original style of the store name and store logo, and enhancing the image of the hotel with more realistic 

visual effects.


2, with the increase of warp and weft density, the meridional and weft fracture strength of the towel will also increase correspondingly. 

The extension of the service life of the towel can directly reduce the cost of the use of the hotel, in the era of high attention to cost, 

which will undoubtedly make more savvy managers excited!



TOWEL MAIN PERFORMANCE IDENTIFICATION


1, water absorption: towel water absorption refers to the towel's ability to absorb water. High water absorption is one of the main 

manifestations of the good performance of the hotel towel, and the national standard stipulates that less than 20 seconds is a 

first-class product. High absorbent towel close to the skin, safe and comfortable, will not appear itching. If the towel has poor water 

absorption, long-term use will cause the towel to feel hard, resulting in a decline in the comfort of the towel.


2, softness: In addition to ensuring water absorption, towels also need to ensure soft comfort. The hotel towel must not only ensure its 

high hair ratio (the hair ratio refers to the total length of the towel 18 wool rings), but also meet the flexibility of the wool rings to ensure 

normal use needs.


3.Two items. Wear-resistant color fastness refers to the discoloration caused by external friction, which is divided into dry friction and 

wet friction. The former uses dry cloth to rub the fabric and see the color of the white cloth; The latter uses water 3, color fastness: color 

fastness usually includes washing fastness and wear fastness. Color fastness to washing refers to the degree of fading of dyed fabric 

after washing under specified washing conditions, including the original discoloration and white cloth staining white cloth rubbing dyed 

fabric, looking at the color of white cloth, generally wet friction fastness is slightly lower than dry friction fastness.


 4, whether pilling: the quality of raw materials determines whether the towel pilling, under normal circumstances, cotton towels in the 

beginning of use will have a slight pilling phenomenon, but with the increase in the number of use, the ball will fall off by itself. More 

hairballs and feathers indicate that the cotton quality of the towel is poor, and vice versa.



INTERNL AND EXTERNAL QUALITY REQUIREMENTS OF TOWELS


The technical requirements of towel fabric are divided into two aspects: internal quality and appearance quality. The intrinsic mass includes 

weight, density, breaking strength, hair removal rate, etc. Appearance quality includes thread block, strip, scatter, damage, dyeing and finishing 

defects.


1. Internal quality requirements:


Weight deviation - The weight can be tested as long as it is weighed. Generally, 10 strips are used for weighing (or one dozen for weighing). 

The national standard is 2-3.5% weight in the case of the public moisture recovery rate of 8%;


Warp and weft density - The identification method is to measure the number of loops per inch, usually, the more loops, the higher the 

density, the better the towel quality.


Breaking strength - Breaking strength refers to the maximum force recorded by the sample during the tensile test under specified conditions, 

which is directly related to the service life of the product. Under normal circumstances, the breaking strength of hotel towels is higher than the 

standard of home textiles.


Hair removal rate - Test the loss rate of hair on the towel, the hair removal rate is related to the pilling performance of the towel. The national 

standard stipulates that the hair removal rate of hotel towels is controlled within 1%


2, appearance quality requirements:


The general requirement is uniform towel wool, neat seam edges, consistent length, and smooth hair. The surface of the towel should have 

no broken diameter, broken weft, thin road, dense road, bald hair, uneven loops, rough edges and other phenomena, in addition, the towel 

should be clean and tidy, no oil stains, rust stains, holes, residual edges, no residual threads. The sewing thread is required to be beautiful, 

strong and firm, and the sewing thread should be consistent with the color of the towel, without opening feet, wrinkles, silk rings, floating thread, 

skipping needles and other phenomena.
