How often should I wash my towels?

Bu bölüm hakkında

Towels, used to dry our freshly washed bodies, quickly become dirty, collecting dead skin cells, perspiration, bacteria and fungi that thrive in damp environments. This can lead to fungal infections and skin problems. To manage this, use separate towels for the body and face, and ensure they are thoroughly dried between uses to minimise bacterial growth. Experts recommend washing towels at a high temperature, ideally 60°C or above, to effectively eliminate bacteria and fungi. Lower temperatures, such as 30° to 40°, are only effective on light stains and may not fully sanitise the towels. Over time, the accumulation of microbes makes thorough cleaning more challenging.
