These bamboo bath mats look and feel like the finest hotel mats. They're luxuriously weighty, plus, their 60% bamboo content gives some unique advantages over ordinary cotton towelling. Bamboo is 3-4 times more absorbent than cotton. And because it has natural antibacterial properties, an economical 40°C wash is enough for perfect hygiene and cleanliness. And importantly, it helps extend the life of the fabric. Best of all is the fluffy silkiness of bamboo/cotton bath mats. The blend feels uniquely soft to the touch and stays that way through machine washing and ordinary line drying.
