Product Overview
The Towel City TC034 Printable Border Hand Towel is a substantial and highly functional accessory designed for businesses that require a blend of luxury and brand visibility. This heavyweight hand towel offers a deep pile for superior absorbency, making it far more than a standard bathroom essential. Engineered with a dedicated 11cm flat knit herringbone border, it provides a stable and smooth foundation for customisation, ensuring that your corporate identity is presented with clarity and professionalism.
Key Features
- 100% Cotton Construction: The natural fibres provide a soft, comfortable feel against the skin while ensuring the towel remains durable enough for repeated use.
- Deep Pile Absorbency: The heavyweight fabric structure is designed to hold moisture efficiently, providing the performance expected in professional environments.
- 11cm Herringbone Border: This wide, flat-knit section is specifically designed to facilitate high-quality decoration, preventing the distortion often seen when applying logos directly to looped pile.
- Central Hanging Loop: Located at the centre of the top edge, this loop allows for easy storage and drying, keeping workspaces or changing rooms tidy.
- Certified Standards: Accredited with Amfori BSCI and Oeko-Tex Standard 100, ensuring the product meets rigorous social and safety requirements.
Design & Performance
Performance is at the heart of the TC034. As a heavyweight towel, it possesses a thick, luxurious texture that feels substantial in the hand. The deep pile is not merely for comfort; it increases the surface area of the cotton fibres to maximise water retention. The design is finished with a sophisticated herringbone border that adds a touch of visual interest while serving as a functional workspace for branding. Measuring 50 x 100cm, it provides ample coverage for a variety of professional applications, from high-end hospitality to sports facilities.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This towel is an exceptional candidate for both print and embroidery, thanks to the 11cm wide border. For a traditional, high-end professional appearance, we recommend embroidery. It provides a raised, textured finish that is particularly well-suited for golf clubs, boutique hotels, or salon branding, where a premium aesthetic is required.
Alternatively, the flat-knit border allows for crisp, large-scale printing. This is the preferred choice for bold designs or larger corporate logos where clarity is paramount. Our Telford-based team, with expertise dating back to 1976, handles all customisation in-house to ensure your branding meets our exacting standards.
Use Cases
This hand towel is ideally suited for the hospitality and leisure sectors. It is a popular choice for boutique hotels and bed and breakfasts looking to add a personal touch to guest rooms. Similarly, it is perfectly suited for beauty salons, barbershops, and sports clubs where high-quality, branded towels enhance the overall customer experience. It also serves as an excellent promotional item for fitness centres and golf events.

Practical Advice
The TC034 is a one-size product measuring 50 x 100cm. To achieve the best results with customisation, consider placing your logo centrally within the 11cm border area. For businesses ordering for guest use, we recommend washing the towels once before the first use to fully open the cotton fibres and achieve maximum fluffiness and absorbency.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and longevity of your hand towels, it is essential to follow correct maintenance procedures. We recommend a domestic wash at 40°C on a cotton cycle. Washing at this temperature effectively removes oils and bacteria without causing excessive wear to the natural cotton fibres.
Do not use bleach, as this will chemically weaken the cotton and cause significant discolouration to both the towel and your custom branding. We also strongly advise against using fabric softeners; while they may make the towel feel softer, they coat the fibres in a silicone film that significantly reduces the towel's ability to absorb water.
Avoid tumble drying to prevent shrinkage and maintain the integrity of the herringbone border. Instead, air dry and use a two-dot iron setting to smooth the printable border area if required. Do not dry clean, as the harsh chemicals involved can damage the deep pile and the adhesive bonds used in some printing processes.
