So What is EcoKnit™?
EcoKnit™ is an innovative product designed to help reduce towel-laundering costs; in particular, they will reduce your energy consumption and reduce your energy bills, this is proven and we guarantee it.
A very special construction has been developed to give the towel quick drying and snag resistant characteristics, making it exceptionally durable and long lasting.
How is it done?
Through specialised technology and modified machinery we are able to knot every individual loop on the towel into the base construction, thereby preventing the loops from coming loose / been pulled. By knotting the loops into the base construction we create an exceptionally strong and durable towel, one that on average will last 2 to 3 times longer than that of woven towels. This is a long expensive process but second to none when comparing EcoKnit advantages against woven towels.
How is this process different to woven towels?
You cannot knot individual loops into the base of the towel in woven towels because of the technology and the machine capabilities, because you cannot knot the loops it now rules out the use of polyester in the base as there would be nothing holding in the loops to prevent them pulling loose, and the towel would fall to pieces very quickly. Any supplier which advocates that they have polyester in their towels are infact referring to a blend whereby they mix polyester with the cotton fibres, this is used to strengthen the yarn for the weaving process which helps reduce breakages on the machines and speeds up production and improves productivity.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THESE TOWELS DO NOT DISPLAY QUICK DRYING NOR SNAG FREE CHARACTERISTICS, IT IS MERELY AN ADVANTAGE FOR THE PRODUCTION PROCESS AND HAS NO END USER BENIFITS.
Does Polyester spell trouble?
Simply put, NO - 99% of establishments use cotton/poly bed linen with a combination of 50% Cotton & 50% Polyester so there is no need to worry about the polyester content in these towels. Further the polyester in the towels does not come into contact with the user as it is hidden in the base of the towel. The only fibres that come in contact with your skin are 100% cotton.
Advantages of the EcoKnit™ Towel
Snags?
The washing machine and tumble dryer having sharp obstacles. Sharp edges on laundry cages, Guest's nails or jewellery.
With EcoKnit™ 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.
Longer Life Even More Washes
You will get 2 to 3 times more washes* from the EcoKnit™ 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 and makes the overall towel exceptionally strong, durable and long lasting.
*Under the same washing conditions as your woven towels
More Luxurious Feel and Better Absorbency
It is easy to understand why EcoKnit™ knitted towels are the ideal choice plus - there is an added bonus, which users will particularly appreciate - a more luxurious feel and better absorbency, not to mention the quality; our towels are not made in India or Pakistan or Bangladesh and we pride ourselves on the quality compared to these countries.
Open base construction allows the towel to expel water quickly reducing time in the wash & dry cycle.
Loops knotted into base to prevent snagging.
Our unique Knitted construction prevents snagging of loops and traditional problems such as hems and selvedges fraying as seen here with this typical woven Bath mat.
This advantage is a big money saver, there is no more wastage of items having to be discarded and you can achieve a longer laundering life as a result of it.
