Why You Should Switch to Egyptian Cotton Towels
Posted by The Canningvale Team on 3rd Jan 2024
Have you been looking for a way to bring your favourite day spa experience home with you? Look no further than Egyptian Cotton towels.
This decadently soft cotton is renowned for its long-staple fibres, which produce a softer and longer-lasting fabric than regular cotton. Not only do Egyptian Cotton towels feel amazing against your skin, but they also absorb water quickly and efficiently, making them perfect for drying off after a shower or bath. And don't worry about them wearing out quickly - Egyptian Cotton towels will be with you for the long haul, retaining their quality and softness wash after wash.
What’s so great about Egyptian Cotton? Is Egyptian Cotton better than regular cotton?
Egyptian Cotton towels are uber-soft and ultra-absorbent without the lint!
The magic lies in its fibre length. Yarns made from shorter fibres are more prone to snagging, pilling, and forming holes, and can feel rough due to small protruding fibres. On the other hand, the extra-long fibres that form Egyptian Cotton yarns are smooth and work together to form a strong, durable surface that is oh-so-soft.
With its long-staple fibres, Egyptian cotton won’t shed as much as regular cotton, produces a softer, more durable fabric, and will stand the test of time, remaining lush and durable.

Of course, not all Egyptian Cotton is created equal. It's essential to ensure you are purchasing Certified Egyptian Cotton to guarantee that the fabric is crafted from long-staple fibres. This way, you can be confident that you're getting the highest-quality towels that will stand the test of time.
At Canningvale, our Egyptian Royale towels are made with true Egyptian Cotton (certified by the Egyptian Cotton Association) – the finest in the world – making them softer, finer and more durable than any other type of cotton.
Is Egyptian Cotton as absorbent as regular cotton?
If extra absorbency is what you’re looking for - Egyptian Cotton is for you.
The long fibres we mentioned also create more surface area within the cotton yarns, actually making them MORE absorbent than regular cotton. The result is a towel that is not only softer and more plush, but also more effective at wicking away moisture, leaving you feeling dry and comfortable after a shower or bath.
Our Egyptian Royale collection is the heaviest, most absorbent towel in the Canningvale range, making it perfect for those who love a plush pile and exceptional absorbency.
