450 GSM Cotton Rich Face Cloths — Budget Range

Affordable Doesn't Have to Mean Short-Lived

These 450 GSM face cloths use a cotton-rich yarn that includes recycled fibre. That's what keeps the price down against our other 450 GSM ranges — recycled fibres run shorter than virgin cotton, so we blend rather than go 100% recycled. What you get is a genuinely lower cost per cloth without dropping to synthetic filler, and enough absorbency and durability at 450 GSM to handle the kind of repeat, commercial-style washing a rental property or holiday let actually puts a towel through.

We've woven cotton in Bolton since 1999, and this budget range comes off the same mill floor as our premium lines — it's a different yarn blend to hit a lower price, not a different standard of manufacturing.

Sized at 30 x 30cm, in a range of colours, with pack sizes running from 10 for a single property up to boxes of 9,600 for managing a full portfolio — order what one flat needs or what twenty do, without the price per cloth changing the maths.

Wash with similar colours in warm water, use a mild detergent, and skip the fabric softener and bleach — both work against absorbency over time. Tumble dry on low or air dry; over-drying is what makes a budget cotton-rich cloth go stiff early, not the fabric itself.

Best suited to rental properties, holiday lets, student accommodation and guest bathrooms where volume and turnover matter more than a premium finish.

FAQs:

Is this 100% cotton? 

No — it's cotton-rich, blended with recycled fibre, which is what keeps the price down. 

What pack sizes are available? 

From a pack of 10 up to boxes of 9,600, so you can order exactly what one property or a whole portfolio needs. 

Will these hold up to regular guest turnover? 

At 450 GSM they're built for repeat washing rather than occasional home use — solid performance for rental and holiday-let cycles, though our ring-spun Institutional 450 GSM face cloths are the stronger option if wash-cycle life matters more than price.

What's the difference between this and your 450 GSM Institutional face cloths? 

This range uses cotton-rich yarn blended with recycled fibre to hit a lower price point; the Institutional range is ring-spun for longer wash-cycle life at a slightly higher cost — worth comparing if you're buying for high-turnover commercial use. 

Is recycled yarn as absorbent as virgin cotton? 

Close, not identical. Recycled fibres are typically shorter than virgin cotton fibres, which is why we blend rather than use 100% recycled yarn. At 450 GSM the cotton-rich blend absorbs well enough for everyday guest and household use — it's simply not positioned as our top-performance line. 

Can I split a bulk order across colours? 

Yes — select colour and pack size at checkout, or if you need a specific split across several properties, call us on 01204 455755 and we'll sort it manually rather than you placing separate orders.
