🧺 Why Your Towels Smell — And How Jacquard Towels Fix It
If your towels smell musty or feel limp after a few washes, you’re not alone. Most standard towels — especially low-grade cotton or polyester blends — lose their softness, absorbency, and shape quickly. They pill, thin out, and trap odors, turning a simple hand-dry into a frustrating experience.
🦠 What Causes Smelly Towels?
Towel odor is caused by microbes like bacteria, mold, and mildew that thrive in damp environments. Common culprits include:
- Leaving wet towels bunched up in laundry baskets or machines
- Incomplete drying after use or washing
- Detergent or fabric softener buildup
- Low-temperature washes
- Body oils and dead skin cells left on the fabric
