The customer service at Towel Shop is exceptional! Other than that i can't fault them! Will use again but in future i will call to make sure things are in stock!
Comprehensive hand towel selection, prompt and efficient service.
Worked like clockwork with no problems. Goods ordered arrived when expected .
Found everything went okay with this transaction- website descriptions, communication, speed of delivery, packaging etc. Very pleased with product.
I would definetely recommend this site, they have TONS of quality towel products and an extensive range of discounts.
Ordered on Tuesday arrived Friday safe clean and well packed. Comfortable towels that also looks good would, recommend any time. Used this company before. I live far north Scotland.
Delivered in 2 days (above and beyond what I expected), the description matched the towels exactly which leaves me chuffed to bits
I was unsure about which towel GSM to buy but speaking to customer service was very helpful and I was able to make up my mind. Once I ordered I was impressed with the delivery it was fast won't hesitate to buy from them again.

Going lighter on GSM to save money only works out if the construction underneath is still right — a cheap 400 GSM towel with open-end yarn thins out fast and ends up costing more in early replacement than it saved on the unit price. Ours is 400 GSM ring spun carded cotton, the same construction as our heavier institutional ranges, just at a lighter weight built specifically for fast turnaround.
Ring spinning combs and aligns the fibres before twisting them into yarn, producing a smoother, stronger thread than open-end spinning — which is what lets a lighter towel still hold up to commercial laundering rather than being a false economy.

Construction: Ring spun carded cotton
Material: 100% cotton
Size: 50 x 85cm
Colour: White
Care: Machine washable, tumble dry suitable
Gyms, budget hotels, student accommodation and commercial laundries buy this weight for high-turnover environments where fast drying between uses matters as much as durability. If your setting needs more density for heavier daily washing, the500 GSM version uses the same ring-spun construction at a heavier weight. Call 01204 455755 for a bulk quote.

Is 400 GSM too light for commercial use, or is it a false economy?
No, provided it's ring spun rather than open-end — the construction is what determines durability under commercial washing, not the GSM number alone.
If you're looking for a heavier towel, you can check out our 500 GSM Hotel/Institutional towels.
What's the benefit of ring spun over open-end at this weight?
Ring spun produces a smoother, stronger yarn that holds up to frequent commercial laundering better than the looser open-end alternative used in most budget towels at this weight.
Do they dry faster than heavier towels?
Yes, that's the main advantage of 400 GSM specifically — faster turnaround for high-use environments.
Are these only suitable for institutions, or fine for home use too?
Both — the same construction works for everyday home use, it's just built primarily for high-frequency commercial washing.
Do you offer bulk and wholesale pricing?
Yes, no minimum order, with larger box quantities for better unit pricing.
