Most quotes say "100% cotton, 500 GSM". Ours tell you what's inside.

Two towels with the same label can feel, absorb and last completely differently. The difference is the yarn, the count, the ply and the finish. We choose them with you, write them on the quote, and make the bulk to match.

Every quote we send states these details line by line, so you can compare like with like. We also make blends (for example 60% cotton / 40% polyester) when price matters more than pure cotton, and we always state the exact blend.

See who we serve

Built for buyers who order by the container

If you import US$100,000 or more a year, you need more than a good sample. You need the fiftieth carton to match the first, and a supplier who plans with you.

Full and mixed containers

20 ft and 40 ft loads, or several products in one container to keep your stock balanced.

Season pricing

For committed programmes we can agree prices for a season, so your margins don't move with every yarn price change.

Dedicated capacity

Capacity at our partnered weaving units and stitching is kept ready; production starts as soon as your order is confirmed.

Golden sample on every order

An approved sample is sealed and kept. Bulk is checked against it before it leaves.

Testing per container

On request, an NABL-accredited lab tests 5 pieces from every container, each a different product picked at random from a different carton.

Your inspector is welcome

Send SGS, Intertek, Bureau Veritas, QIMA or your own team before shipment.

For Amazon and online sellers

Your reviews tell us what to fix. Our tests tell us how.

Most bad reviews on towels and kitchen textiles trace back to a few spec decisions. We test your current product, find the cause, and make a corrected sample.
