If we don’t keep ourselves clean, washing our hands and showering every day, we are opening ourselves up to illness with the germs we pick up throughout the day, and not smelling too great either. Picking up bugs and germs is unavoidable as something as simple as just turning a door handle can transfer all sorts of things. But we can do plenty to minimise the transference of germs. Did you know that changing your humble towel to a copper-infused one can protect you against E. Coli and other infection-causing microorganisms as well as reduce any bacteria that cause bad smells on towels? Your average household towels are home to approximately 10 million fungi and bacteria, so just how clean are we after a shower or a visit to the gym using our normal towels? Thankfully, Copper Clothing’s Anti-Microbial Bath Towel and Gym Towel is packed with technology that infuses copper ions within the fabric of the towel to destroy all pathogenic microbes upon contact and protect the towel further from germs that can cause foul smells and breed illnesses. Who knew a towel could be so technically advanced? Not me, until now.
Since Covid, we are more aware of germs and bacteria than ever. Copper Clothing have infused copper ions into fabrics to create something different that helps kill bacteria which cause illness and bad smells. The benefits of copper are well-known, including purifying water and helping to prevent infections. Copper Clothing’s range of clothing and towels has copper infused with the material giving them anti-odour, anti-microbial, anti-fungal, anti-virus and self-cleansing properties. It means that bacterial can’t breed on your wet damp towel which also means no musty odour from your towel either.
I recently used Copper Clothing’s Anti-Microbial Kitchen Towel and love it, it is a fantastic quality tea towel. Their Copper-Infused Anti-Microbial Bath Towel and Gym Towel is made from 100% copper-infused cotton. The material is 500 GSM thick for super absorption and is super soft. The towel measures 125x70cm. It is a grey cotton towel with a good thickness and weight, is super soft and very absorbent. It is even perfect for people with sensitive skin as the copper ions make it hypoallergenic.
Key Features:
- Plush and Comfortable: Made with a luxurious-feeling, super soft, and comfortable 500 GSM cloth that’s breathable and of premium quality. The copper ions in this cotton towel make it hypoallergenic for even the most sensitive skin.
- Eco-friendly/Natural Fabric: Anti-Microbial Bath and Gym Towels are made using 100% cotton that’s infused with copper ions on a molecular level. These ions are proven to eliminate germs and protect the towel from pathogen growth.
- Anti-ageing: Studies have shown that copper contains elements that could help reduce wrinkles and fine lines and promote skin elasticity.
- Self-sustainable: With the help of copper ions, this gym towel naturally cleans itself and destroys bacteria like E. coli, S. Aureus, and MRSA by 99.99%, reducing the need to wash it often. This helps you to do your part in saving water and the planet!
- Anti-odour: Copper-infused fabrics keep the smell away by destroying odour-causing fungi and bacteria, keeping your towel fresh and odour-free for a longer time.
- Super Absorbent: Copper’s fast drying and super absorbent properties make our gym towels perfect for daily use.
- Anti-microbial: Lab tests conclude that copper ions destroy bacteria like S. Aureus, E. coli, and MRSA by 99.99%, making the surface anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral.
- Built to Last: The AATCC lab reports reveal that the power of copper stays on the product for a lifetime and makes the product durable in the long run!
Copper Clothing’s Anti-Microbial Bath Towel and Gym Towel looks and feels just like any other towel that I own – it’s soft and does an excellent job of getting me dry. But after a week of daily showers, it doesn’t have that musty damp smell. The copper-infused fabric seems to work by killing off any bacteria that causes odours. If you want to know more about how copper works, you can find out more at www.copperclothing.com/pages/how-copper-works.
Overall, I think that this is a fantastic bath towel / gym towel. It is soft to use and very absorbent, it dries quickly after use and doesn’t have a smell even after a week of use or being left in a gym bag. Whilst it is a good size, perfect for throwing in your gym bag, I would like to see a bigger bath sheet size.
Whilst this is a cotton towel with copper ions infused into the fabric, it is completely safe and is chemical fee. Copper has been used for hundreds of years and is well-known for its health benefits, including to purify water and prevent infections. Copper ions penetrate bacterial cells and inhibit their respiration.
Using copper-infused towels is a fantastic way to incorporate the benefits of copper into your daily life. Copper is an eco-friendly, natural metal and when infused with fabric the goodness of the copper oxide helps to eliminate the growth of bacteria and odour, giving the towel self-cleansing properties. This leaves the towel feeling fresh, clean and odour-free. It’s also highly absorbent and very fast drying, making it perfect for daily use in the bathroom and for keeping in your gym bag.
Whilst the towel has self-cleansing properties, that doesn’t mean that it doesn’t need washing. I have washed it on a 30 degree wash several times now and it has come out still feeling just as soft and looking good as good as new each time.
At £19.99 for one towel, it is a little bit more expensive than a good quality bath towel, but it is worth it. It is an excellent quality towel that looks good, dries well, stays odourless, and has a nice weight to it. It doesn’t need washing as often, doesn’t need changing as often and will last a lot longer, so in the long run it will be much better value for money. And if that wasn’t enough, the copper ions infused into the fabric, you can’t feel or see them, will reduce or eliminate germs that other damp towels create. And with less bacterial breeding on your towels, it will create less germs, less odour and a much more hygienic towel. A towel that not only gets you dry but one that is better for your health as well.
I think that this is a great bath/gym towel. Personally, I would have preferred a bigger bath sheet size that I could wrap around me, but this does an excellent job of quickly drying me after my showers as it absorbs the water well, dries quickly for the next use and hasn’t got any odour caused by bacterial that can be found on standard towels. And it looks and feels like any other good quality towel that you may have in your cupboards for use in the bathroom or at the gym.
The humble bath towel has just got better, more hi-tech and more hygienic. I would happily recommend this premium quality soft towel.
