Using recycled polyester /microfiber allows us to create a high performance product that has raised the standards of what you can expect from a towel. Our KUANGS fabric is lightweight, quick dry and super soft to touch. At the same time, we're able to keep our impact to a minimum and have a positive impacton the world around us. Each towel we sell keeps plastic out of our oceans, and that makes us very proud.
We would LOVE to not be able to make any more towels, because we’ve run out of plastic waste to recycle. Unfortunately, the 2 million plastic drinking bottles that were manufactured around the world since you started reading this blog post won’t decompose for another 450 years.
Until then, we’re going to keep making the best damn towels on the planet, because this is how we respond to
the global plastic crisis.Each towel we make takes an average of 20 plastic bottles out of our oceans.
