Description
Combining silky soft bamboo with the expert zero twist technology, our Ultra Soft towels really do live up to their name.
After stepping out of a relaxing bath or a steaming hot shower, all you want to do is wrap yourself in super soft comfort. With these towels, you’ll have your needs satisfied.
The combination of bamboo fibres and combed long staple cotton alongside the towel’s comprehensive zero twist construction ensures supreme softness and absorption, whilst staying fluffier wash after wash.
Zero Twist is a method of binding cotton fibres that creates extra softness. Instead of spinning and twisting cotton fibres together in the traditional way, Zero Twist towels are bound using a water-soluble fibre that dissolves during fabric finishing.
The untwisted cotton blended with bamboo give an exceptionally soft silky smooth feel.

Care tips - How to wash bamboo towels
Wash Before First Use
Wash your bamboo towels before using them for the first time to enhance their absorbency and softness.
Use Mild Detergent (if you have to)
Choose a gentle, eco-friendly, non-biological detergent with no enzymes, bleaching agents, and optical brighteners, to maintain the fabric’s quality and prevent damage.
Avoid Fabric Softeners
Do not use fabric softeners as they can coat the bamboo fibres, reducing absorbency.
Wash in Cold Water
Wash your towels in cold or warm water to preserve the fibres and colours.
Gentle Cycle
Use the gentle or delicate cycle on your washing machine to prevent excessive wear.
Avoid Bleach
Do not use bleach, as it can weaken the bamboo fibres and cause discolouration.
Tumble Dry Low
If you want to use a dryer, tumble dry on a low heat setting to prevent shrinking and help your towels maintain their softness.
Line Dry
Whenever possible, line-dry your towels to extend their lifespan and save energy.
Avoid Overloading
Do not overload the washing machine - this will ensure your towels are properly washed and rinsed.
No High Heat
Avoid ironing and don't risk exposing your towels to high heat, as this can damage the bamboo fibres.

Bamboo Cotton FAQ's
Are bamboo towels better than cotton?
Many find bamboo towels better because they’re softer, more absorbent, and more eco-friendly. It ultimately depends on your preference for feel and drying speed. If you're not sure what to pick, learn more in our guide on how to choose a towel.
Is bamboo more sustainable than cotton?
Yes. Bamboo grows quickly without pesticides and uses less water, making it one of the most sustainable textile choices.
Are bamboo towels good for hair and skin?
Absolutely. Bamboo towels are gentle on hair, helping reduce frizz and breakage — perfect for curly, fine, or damaged hair. On top of that, thanks to their hypoallergenic and antibacterial properties, they’re a perfect choice for sensitive skin and can help reduce irritation.
What is bamboo cotton (or bamboo viscose)?
Bamboo cotton, often called bamboo viscose, is made by extracting cellulose from bamboo and spinning it into fibres. When blended with cotton, it results in a plush, silky-soft, and absorbent towel.
Are bamboo towels antibacterial?
Bamboo fibres naturally resist bacteria growth and odours, helping your towels stay fresher for longer between washes.
Are bamboo towels absorbent?
Yes — bamboo towels are known for exceptional absorbency, even 3-4 times more absorbent than conventional cotton. It’s certainly one of the best choices among different types of towels.
What about the drying time?
Bamboo towels absorb more water, so they can take slightly longer to dry than thinner cotton towels. However, they’re breathable, so they still dry efficiently.
Does bamboo cotton shrink?
As great as it is, bamboo cotton is even more susceptible to heat and high temperatures than cotton, which is precisely why it’s so important to follow the proper care guidelines. This way, it’s possible to keep them in perfect condition for much longer.
How to keep bamboo towels soft?
Wash with gentle detergent, avoid high heat, and give them a good shake after washing. A low tumble dry helps maintain fluffiness. If you’d like to find out more, read our blog post to learn how to make towels soft again.

RECORD-BREAKING BAMBOO
Rapid growth rate
A natural bamboo plant can achieve a maturation of 3 feet in just one day, making it a perfect and quick growing substitute to traditional cotton. Alongside being planet-conscious, bamboo is wonderfully kind and gentle to the skin.
BEST ECO FRIENDLY BATH TOWELS
Benefits of Bamboo
The antimicrobial properties of bamboo create a hypoallergenic towel that naturally repels mildew and mould, so that's added protection for your sensitive skin and any microbe-associated allergies. Winner!
The antibacterial properties that remain from the bamboo plant will also prevent any mould or mildew building up on organic bamboo towels that are left hanging around often damp after use, something that pure cotton towels don't guarantee.
Bamboo also has an extremely high power of absorbency and is superior in soaking up any moisture. These means that using bamboo to make this collection is always sure to produce an incredibly absorbent towel.
SOFTER & STRONGER
Zero-Twist Towels
Remaining beautifully soft wash after wash, zero-twist towels are built to hold their durable and absorbent characteristics.
Differing from conventional twisted cotton which typically results in your bath towels feeling rough on the skin after washing.
The super strong, durable blend of bamboo and cotton allows our bamboo bath towels to be crafted using the technique called Zero-Twist which is where each loop is left open (rather than twisted).
Therefore providing supreme softness, and excellent absorbency - with more air between the loops, water will be soaked up faster.
OUR TOWELS DRY QUICKER
Handy Hanging Loops
Our strong Misona hooks ensure wet towels dry more efficiently. With Bamboo Bath Towels having super absorbent properties, this means our towels hold a lot of moisture.
Eliminate the fear of your towel falling into a heap on the floor. Tidily hang your towels with our built-in hanging hook to encourage the towels to dry faster, preventing water getting trapped in the towels folds.
Trust that your towels will stay put whilst they dry off with ease.

Certified Sustainability
Bamboo as a resource is one of the most sustainable materials in the world, but the fabric can tell a completely different story.

At Misona – what you see is what you get. And what you get is a stunning set of bamboo towels made from a truly eco-conscious fabric with OEKO-TEX 100 certification. That’s your guarantee the entire journey of your bamboo towel was 100% planet-friendly.
