Tips You Need To Know

Sort Your Towels

The first step in washing white towels is to sort them from other colored towels or clothing. This is important to prevent any dye transfer during the washing process. Dye transfer occurs when the color from one item bleeds onto another item in the wash. This can be prevented by sorting your laundry into like colors before washing. 

Pre-Treat Stains

Before washing your white Belem towels, it's important to check for stains. If you notice any stains on your towels, pre-treat them with a stain remover before washing. This will help to remove the stains and prevent them from setting in during the wash cycle.

Choose the Right Detergent

Using the right detergent is important when washing white towels. Use a laundry detergent that is formulated for white fabrics. Make sure to follow our label and care instructions for the correct amount of detergent to use. Using too little detergent can result in dirty and dingy-looking towels, while using too much can leave a residue on your towels.

Use Non-Chlorine Bleach If Needed

If your towels are heavily soiled or stained, you may want to add bleach to the wash cycle. Bleach is a powerful whitening agent that can help to restore the brightness of your white towels.

However, be sure to use non-chlorine bleach as the chlorine will heavily damage the overall state of the towel. Follow the instructions on the bleach label carefully and be sure to use the correct amount for your load size. It's important to note that bleach should only be used on our 100% cotton towels.

Set the Washer

Once you have sorted your towels, pre-treated any stains, and chosen the right detergent, it's time to set your washing machine. Select the appropriate cycle on your washing machine for white towels. Typically, this will be a regular or heavy-duty cycle with the warmest water setting recommended on the care label of the towels. Using warm water will help to kill any bacteria and remove any dirt or stains on the towels.

Avoid Fabric Softener 

If you prefer your towels to be softer, you should avoid a fabric softener to the wash cycle. A fabric softener can leave a residue on your towels, which can make them less absorbent over time. To avoid this, be sure to avoid using the product as it will render your towels into a lower-quality than you were hoping for. 

Dry the Towels

Once the wash cycle is complete, transfer the towels to the dryer and dry them on a medium or high heat setting. Drying your Belem towels on high heat can help to kill any remaining bacteria on the towels. Be sure to remove them promptly from the dryer to prevent wrinkles. If you prefer your towels to be fluffy, you can add a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls to the dryer. This will help to fluff up the towels and reduce drying time.
