Weaving Techniques Behind Hotel-Grade Terry Towels

Have you ever slept in a nice hotel and used their super soft and fuzzy towels? These are not regular bath towels; they are hotel-grade terry towels designed to give you a fancy experience. At Youmian, we have strive to make these towels perfect so that you can feel special each time you use it.

How Our Quality Hotel Towels are Made

Producing hotel-quality towels is a delicate process that requires time and expertise. First, we select premium cotton yarns, which are then spun on a loom—the pile itself will be created—into a strong base for the towel. Then, our skilled workers take carefully woven bundles of the thread, which we call yarn, and feed it into a special machine called a loom that weaves it all together to form a nice feeling, thick fabric.

How We Make Pretty Patterns in Towels

Room terry towels are unique in that they have beautiful woven patterns, unlike regular bath towels. We do something special called jacquard weaving, where we weave different colors of yarn together to make pretty patterns. At Youmian, we ensure that each hotel quality towelling bathrobes is woven with care, so that the patterns appear sharp and crisp.

How to Make Hotel Towels Super Absorbent

Hotel-quality terry towels are not only soft and fluffy, but they’re also super-absorbent. This also means they’re fairly adept at absorbing water from your skin. We’re able to do this through a process known as loop weaving, in which the yarns are woven into loops that leave extra room for water to be absorbed. The smaller the loops, the more absorbent the towel will be. Here at Youmian we look at just how tightly looped the threads are woven to allow us to have a thickness and absorbency unique to our towels.

Combining Softness and Durable Strength in Luxury Towels

Finally, we give our soft, strong luxury hotel towels an extra touch of softness through a process called shearing. What does that mean, you ask? Well, it means we shave the top layer of loops off the rest to produce a smooth and soft surface that feels a-mazing on your skin. We also put our towel through rigorous treatment with special materials that make them more durable, so you can use and wash them over and over again without losing any of their softness.
