600 GSM Towels – Luxury, Absorbent & Durable
Towels offer daily comfort and satisfaction in your home. Among the wide range of towel types, 600 GSM towels offer the perfect balance of luxury, thickness, and absorbency. These towels are designed to deliver a spa-like experience while offering the practicality needed for everyday use. These are a long-term investment in both comfort and durability.
What Does 600 GSM Mean?
GSM stands for Grams per Square Metre. It measures the density of the fabric used in towels. A 600 GSM towel means that one square metre of the fabric weighs 600 grams. Towels with this rating are thicker, denser, and more absorbent compared to lower GSM options like 400 or 500 GSM towels. A 600 GSM towel provides luxurious softness due to higher fibre content and superior absorbency. These towels take slightly longer to dry but offer superior functionality and comfort where premium quality matters.
Types of Towels Available in 600 GSM
The Towel Shop offers a variety of 600 GSM towel types to meet the diverse needs of our customers across the UK. Each towel is made from premium-quality cotton and manufactured to the highest standards to ensure comfort and durability.
- Face Cloths: The small 600 GSM face cloths offer gentle exfoliation and excellent absorbency. They are perfect for daily skincare routines or for guest bathrooms. These are soft enough for sensitive skin and durable to withstand repeated washing.
- Hand Towels: Hand towels are used frequently throughout the day in both residential and commercial settings. A 600 GSM hand towel provides the right level of absorbency and quick-drying capacity. These remains thick after many washes and ensure quick water absorption.
- Bath Towels: Bath towels in the 600 GSM category offer a balanced experience between luxury and everyday practicality. They dry the body efficiently and provide that ‘wrapped-in-softness’ feel. These are highly absorbent and fast-drying.
- Bath Sheets: Larger than regular bath towels, 600 GSM bath sheets offer extra coverage and comfort. They are ideal for those who want a more luxurious drying experience. These offer more coverage post-shower and absorbs more moisture in one go.
- Towel Bale Sets: Bale sets include a combination of towel types—usually face cloths, hand towels, and bath towels—offering full bathroom solutions in one purchase. Our 600 GSM towel bales are popular among homeowners setting up new homes or hotels restocking in bulk.
- Hotel / Institutional Towels: Our 600 GSM institutional towels are designed for heavy-duty use in high-turnover environments such as hotels, hostels, care homes, and clinics. These can withstand frequent washing and retain colour and softness
Material Types in Our 600 GSM Collection
The towel's material is just as important as its GSM. Here are the most popular materials used in our 600 GSM range:
- 100% Cotton: Our 600 GSM towels are made from pure cotton, which are known for their length, softness, and strength. This makes them incredibly soft, absorbent, and resilient.
- Combed Cotton: Some of our towels use combed cotton, where shorter threads are removed to produce a smoother, stronger yarn. This creates a dense, plush towel that maintains its texture over time.
Colours and Styles Available
Our 600 GSM towels come in a wide variety of colours to suit different bathroom decors:
- White
- Cream
- Purple
- Grape
- Cobalt Blue
- Truffle
- Steel Grey
These towels are finished with double-stitched hems for added durability and a polished look.
Care Tips to Extend Towel Life
To get the most from your 600 GSM towels, follow these simple care instructions:
- Wash before first use to increase absorbency

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What makes a 600 GSM towel different from 400 or 500 GSM towels?

Do 600 GSM towels take longer to dry?
