The floor mat towel as its name, it is a towel used on the floor, which is usully used as drying our feet after we having bathing, so will not get our slipper wet, and will not get the floor wet.
Floor towels are mainly made of cotton or chemical fiber on the base fabric to form tufts or loop piles. The texture is thick and tight, with good elasticity, and has related functions such as anti-slip, water absorption, warmth retention, dust absorption and decoration. Floor towels are mainly divided into three types: single-sided velvet floor towels (front velvet, back flat cloth or front terry, back flat cloth), double-sided velvet floor towels (front terry, back velvet or front velvet, back terry), and loop velvet floor towels (back flat cloth, front loops, velvet cross-planted). The bottom surface of the single-sided velvet (loop) floor towel needs to be treated with a spray glue process (mainly used in humid bathrooms). Floor towels are mainly used in bathrooms and washrooms, etc., for anti-slip flooring and decoration; they are also commonly used for floor decoration in front of beds as footrests.
How to choose a suitable floor mat towel
When purchasing, we should make judgments based on the feel, color, water absorption, anti-slip properties, and workmanship.
1. Good hand feeling
Most floor towels are made of cotton and chemical fibers. The feel is very important when judging the quality of floor towels. Floor towels with good feel are probably good floor towels. For cotton floor towels, they feel soft. Although they are thick, they are very soft.
2. Good elasticity
Elasticity is a very important indicator of floor towels. We can see the material of floor towels from elasticity. For a good floor towel, its shrinkage is good. Its elasticity is like a rubber band. No matter how you pull it, it will never deform.
3. Good color fastness
Floor towels are not only textiles for laying on the floor, but also decorations. Everyone has their own preferences for colors. When purchasing, you must carefully look at the dyeing of floor towels. Since floor towels are immersed in water for a long time, if the dyeing is not up to standard, they will fade. Generally, there is no problem with natural dyeing. After all, we are using 21st century technology now. We should also worry about those bad merchants.
4. Good water absorption
We all know the uses of floor towels. When you get out of the bathtub, you can dry your feet by stepping on them. Water absorption is a very important indicator of floor towels. The most convenient way to test their water absorption is to test their water absorption speed. As long as they absorb water quickly, there is generally no problem.
5. Anti-slip
Some people may think that floor towels with good water absorption must have high anti-slip indicators. On the surface, this view is correct, but they have overlooked a very important content, that is, the material. The surface of the floor towel cannot be too smooth, and there must be enough contact area with the ground, so that the anti-slip property is good and your life can be guaranteed.
Maintenance knowledge
1. Wash with cold water. Especially in winter, you must insist on washing with cold water. Floor towels are cotton products. Hot water will destroy their internal structure, thereby reducing their lifespan.
2. Wash with a soap with low alkalinity after getting dirty, but don’t use it often. Rinse with clean water before each use and wipe the body. It shouldn’t be dirty. Just wash it thoroughly once a week.
3. After each use, be sure to soak the floor towel with clean water, put it in a wash bag, and rinse it before next use. Remember: do not let it air dry, otherwise it will break into pieces like paper.
