Types of Blankets & Throws in Our Collection

At The Towel Shop, we stock a wide variety of blankets and throws to suit different preferences, budgets, and requirements. Below are the main types you will find in our collection:

1. Fleece Blankets

Fleece blankets are lightweight, soft, and exceptionally warm, making them one of the most popular choices in the UK. They are perfect for year-round use as they provide excellent insulation without being too heavy. These are available in single, double, and king sizes.

2. Cotton Thermal Blankets

For those who prefer natural fibres, cotton thermal blankets are a perfect option. Made from 100% cotton, they are breathable, hypoallergenic, and suitable for sensitive skin. Their cellular weave enhances air circulation, which helps regulate body temperature, keeping you warm in winter and cool in summer.

3. Sherpa and Teddy Bear Throws

Sherpa blankets and teddy bear throws are the ultimate in cosiness. With a plush, fluffy texture, they provide unmatched warmth and comfort. Sherpa designs often feature a dual-layer structure with smooth fleece on one side and thick Sherpa on the other, offering luxury and practicality.

4. Flame Retardant Blankets

Safety is just as important as comfort, especially in institutions such as hospitals, hotels, and care homes. Flame retardant blankets meet strict UK fire safety regulations (BS-7175), offering protection without compromising on comfort.

5. Baby Blankets

For little ones, blankets are more than just a covering; they provide warmth, comfort, and security. Our baby blankets are made from soft, breathable fabrics such as bubble fleece and cotton, ensuring they are gentle on delicate skin.

6. Decorative Throws

Throws are the finishing touch to any living space. Whether draped over a bed, sofa, or armchair, they add colour, texture, and style. Our decorative throws are available in different materials such as fleece, cotton blends, and Sherpa, allowing you to choose based on your interior theme.

7. Under Blankets

An under blanket, often known as a mattress blanket, is placed beneath the bed sheet to provide an additional layer of insulation. Fleece under blankets are particularly popular in the UK during winter, as they trap heat and keep the bed warm throughout the night.
