What is Snag Free?
Normal towels can snag and pull when roughly used and over time the hems may split and the selvedges fray all of which dramatically shortens their presentable life.
Ever worried about pulled and snagged loops?
- Snags due to nails or jewellery
- The washing machine and tumble dryer having sharp obstacles
- Your drying lines being more of a hazard than you imagined
- Towels being blown all over you newly trimmed hedges?
Buckingham Knitted Towels
With Buckingham knitted towels you will not have these problems. The loops will not pull, the hems will not split, and the selvedges will not fray -no matter how many times the towel is washed!
In fact the towel is so strong and durable, you can brush it with a wire brush!
Furthermore, there is minimal to zero differential shrinkage in the cross
boarder, quicker drying times when compared to standard towels and reduced
laundering costs.
The range extends the knitted principle with an increased percentage of microfibre / polyester over a standard towel, which allows increases the handle of the towel - at no loss in the overall weight, or additional cost to the buyer.
DOES POLYESTER SPELL TROUBLE?
Simply put, NO -
99% of establishments use cotton/poly bed linen with a combination of 50%
Cotton & 50% Polyester.
You will get 2 to 3 times more washes* from the Buckingham knitted towels than you would from normal woven towels WITH NO EXTRA CARE OR ATTENTION NEEDED, This is achieved by knotting the individual loops on a towel with polyester, a construction of 80% cotton & 20% polyester, which provides incredible strength in the pillar stitch.
It is easy to understand why Buckingham knitted towels are the ideal choice for all heavy use commercial establishments - plus - there is an added bonus which users will particularly appreciate - a more luxurious feel and better absorbency.
