5 Wash Towels Regularly:

Clean your towels after each use to prevent the buildup of bacteria and odors. Use hot water and a mild detergent for best results, and ensure they are thoroughly dried before storage.

Store Towels Properly:

Store clean, dry towels in a dry, well-ventilated area. Avoid keeping them in damp or enclosed spaces, as this can lead to mold and mildew growth. Fold them neatly to save space and make them easily accessible for future use.

Drying:

Drying time for household cleaning towels should be managed carefully to avoid damage. Start with 8 minutes at 110°F and adjust as needed based on towel material and thickness.

Air Drying Is Recommended:

At the end of each cycle, if possible, use air drying to prolong the lifespan of the towels. Lay towels flat or hang them to air dry naturally.

If using a dryer, avoid high heat settings. Use the lowest possible setting and periodically check the towels to ensure they are not overheating. Cool down towels by allowing them to tumble in the dryer without heat for the last 5 minutes.

Special Notes:

Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners as they can degrade the fibers of the towels.

DO NOT WASH/STORE WITH OTHER FABRICS: Wash household cleaning towels separately from other fabrics, especially those that shed lint, to maintain their effectiveness.
FIRST WASH: Pre-wash new towels before their first use to remove any manufacturing residues and enhance absorbency.
SEGREGATION: Store different types of cleaning towels (e.g., glass cleaning, floor cleaning) separately to avoid cross-contamination.
INSPECTION: Regularly inspect towels for wear and replace as necessary to ensure optimal cleaning performance.
