Travel Towels are light, take up less space and dry quicker than regular towels

Travel towels are ideal for campers and travellers as they are thinner than regular towels and therefore take up less space in your bag or suitcase. Despite being lighter and thinner than a regular towel they are more efficient at drying and come coated in an anti-bacterial treatment.

Some travel towels are six times lighter and dry four times quicker than a beach towel. They are also able to absorb eight times their own weight in water.

This means your travel towel will be dry in no time at all allowing you to pack it up in your bag without the risk of it going mouldy or smelly like a regular towel would. As they are lighter you can pack more of the things you want to take with you rather than wasting space with a regular towel.

Other uses for travel towels include:

  • Dog Walkers: a travel towel is ideal for a dog walker as they are light weight, easy to carry and very absorbent. If you dog jumps in a river or gets wet whilst on a walk you can whip out a travel towel and dry them off. Travel towels are protected with an anti-bacterial layer making them ideal for drying dirty dogs!
  • In the Gym: a micro fibre travel towel is ideal for use in the gym to dry yourself during a sweaty session or to wipe down fitness machines and equipment before and after use.
  • Emergency Use: as travel towels are so lightweight they are ideal for keeping on hand for use when you might need them. They can be stored easily in a bag or car boot allowing you access whenever the need may arise. If you get caught in a down pour they are an ideal way to quickly dry yourself off!
