When purchasing towels for your gym, they should offer high-quality materials and durability. Our wholesale gym towels are made to withstand wear and tear while staying soft and vibrant. To meet the needs of your members, it might be beneficial to vary your towel selection by color, texture, and other options. Here are qualities to look for when purchasing wholesale towels:

1. Size of Towels

When choosing towels for your gym, pool, or other recreational business, you want to make sure they fit your needs. Some gym towels are large enough to be shower towels which makes them ideal for locker rooms or pools. Hand towels also work for bathrooms but can be used to wipe the equipment down or for guests during workouts. Color-coordinated towels will also help guests know which is used for cleaning or personal applications.

2. Towel Materials

When looking at towel material, you want to look at the longevity and durability. Terry cloths or cotton are ideal as they don't wear quickly and can be washed multiple times without shrinking or wearing thin. Check the stitching around the towels to make sure they won't come loose after several washings. ERC Wiping Products uses materials that won't fade and stay soft and absorbent even after repeated washes.

3. Non-Abrasive Towels

When looking for a good quality towel for your gym, finding non-abrasive towels can be beneficial for those with sensitive skin. Choosing softer, thicker towels can help prevent the abrasive feel that sometimes comes with thinner materials. You also want to make sure that your towels will remain soft and plush even after several washes. 

4. Absorbency of the Towels

Towel absorbency is key when looking for the right towels for your business. Some of our towels are thin, but they're made to absorb water from pools and showers, wipe sweat, or clean up spills. The terry cloth materials help pull moisture in and trap it to help you dry faster. 

5. Towels That Are Quick-Drying

When your gym has many patrons constantly using towels, it helps to have quick-drying towels. They're more hygienic as they dry faster, which means they won't grow mold or contain unpleasant odors. This can help in the short term while they're waiting to be washed, but it also means they can last longer without needing to be replaced.

6. Colors That Match Your Business Brand

While we have several options for white towels, we also stock color towels to match the branding of your gym or rec center. These colors can include but are not limited to blues, greens, yellows, oranges, reds, and blacks. Our color towels are available in either stripe or solid colors, depending on your preferences. Some gyms feel a center stripe helps prevent loss and theft as it makes their towels easy to identify.
