Sustainable & Organic Bath Towels
Since we don’t use a lot of single use items in our house, you can imagine we’re pretty “tough” on our towels. Which is really just to say that we use them to the max. They’re the one thing (especially kitchen towels) I wash in hot water. As we slowly start to wear through our towels (and now that it’s time to outfit the backyard ADU), however, we’re scoping out sustainable and organic bath towels – bath towels and washcloths as well as hair towels and beach towels!
Check out our paper towel alternatives for fewer single use items!

Organic Bath Towels
As you probably know by now, calling something “sustainable” isn’t a hard and fast definition. If certain features matter more to you, then be sure to check each product page.
Below are a few brands I’ve come to trust offering sustainable towels (not just organic ones). I’ve included brief introduction of the brands as well as a few key points of each item selected. Similar to sustainable bedding, it’s important that your towels meet your needs and wants!
