An organic towel is made from cotton grown with more consideration for the soil it grows in. At Dims Studio you'll find organic towels from Bongusta's Naram series in three sizes and a wide range of colours, all in organic cotton. Here's a guide to sizes, material, colours and care, so you can put together the towel set that suits your bathroom.

What is an organic towel?

An organic towel is made from cotton grown without synthetic pesticides and artificial fertilisers. The entire Naram series from Bongusta is made from organic cotton, and the products in our range carry the OEKO-TEX label, which relates to the chemical content of the textiles. Choosing organic towels means choosing a product where both the cultivation of the raw material and the chemical finishing have been given more thought.

Three sizes: from hands to the whole body

The Naram series from Bongusta covers three sizes, so you can put together a complete set in organic cotton for the bathroom.

Towel 50×80 cm

The smallest format in the series is suited for hands, face, or as a guest towel by the basin. The format comes in ten colours, including Moonbeam & Ultramarine, which is unique to this size in the range. See the full selection under towels 50×80 cm.

Bath towel 70×140 cm

The bath towel in 70×140 cm is the classic size for everyday use after a bath, large enough to wrap yourself in fully, but compact enough to hang on a hook or towel rail. This format also comes in ten colours. See the full selection under bath towels 70×140 cm.

Bath sheet 100×150 cm

The bath sheet in 100×150 cm is the largest format and gives a more enveloping feel after a bath, while also being large enough to use as a beach towel. See the full selection under bath sheets 100×150 cm and our full range of large bath towels.

Why choose organic towels?

Many people choose organic towels because they want to think a little more about what lies behind an everyday product they use almost daily. A towel is something the skin is in direct contact with again and again, and for some it's therefore natural to want to know more about how the raw material came to be. At the same time, the two-tone combinations in the Naram series make the choice easier, because you don't have to compromise on style to choose organic cotton. The towels work just as well as a purely practical choice as they do as a conscious material choice.

Material: organic cotton in the Naram series

All organic towels in the range come from Bongusta's Naram series. The cotton is light and airy compared to heavier, more densely woven terry towels, which means the towels dry relatively quickly and take up less space in the cupboard. The lighter weave doesn't change the fact that the towels still feel generous after a bath, but they feel different in the hand than the thicker towels you might know from hotels.

How to wash and care for your organic towels

  • Follow the wash instructions on the individual product, and wash strong colours separately the first few times.
  • Avoid fabric softener, as it settles as a film on the cotton fibres and reduces their ability to absorb water.
  • Let the towels dry fully, preferably in fresh air, before folding or putting them away.
  • Shake the towel out lightly before hanging it to dry, so the weave doesn't stick together.

Colours for the bathroom

The Naram series is known for its two-tone combinations, which give a graphic, playful look across all three sizes. The range includes Tropical & Creme, Soft Fuchsia, Sea Foam & Deep Teal, Pure White & Grass, Lilac & Neon Yellow, Lavender Blue, Creme & Ink, Coffee and Baby Pink & Ski Patrol, as well as Blush and Moonbeam & Ultramarine, which are available in selected sizes.

Colourful and fresh combinations

If you want a bathroom with personality, the bold combinations such as Lilac & Neon Yellow, Tropical & Creme and Baby Pink & Ski Patrol are a safe choice. They create a clear eye-catcher, both as a guest towel and as a large bath towel.

Muted and earthy colours

If you prefer a calmer look, the range also has more muted combinations such as Coffee, Sea Foam & Deep Teal and Lavender Blue, which fit naturally into most bathrooms without dominating the room.

How to put together a set in organic cotton

Because the Naram series comes in three sizes and many of the same colours, you can put together a complete set in the same colour, or in a combination of colours across 50×80, 70×140 and 100×150 cm. A consistent set in one colour, for example Coffee in all three sizes, gives a calm, coherent look, while a mix of several colours from the series gives a more playful and personal bathroom. If several of you share the bathroom, each family member can also have their own colour, making it easy to see which towel belongs to whom.

Organic towels for the bathroom, guests and travel

Where the towel will be used affects which size suits best.

For the daily routine

A bath towel in 70×140 cm covers most everyday needs, while a small towel in 50×80 cm is practical for hands and face by the basin.

For guests

A set in 50×80 cm in a different colour from the household's own is a simple way to signal that guests have their own towel, without taking up extra space in the cupboard.

For travel and the beach

The light, organic cotton in the Naram series makes the towels practical to pack for travel, and the bath sheet in 100×150 cm is large enough to work as a beach towel, while still being usable to dry off with afterwards.

Organic cotton versus conventional cotton

The difference between organic and conventional cotton lies mainly in how the plant is grown. Organic cotton is grown without synthetic pesticides and artificial fertilisers, which is the overall definition most organic labels are based on. It doesn't necessarily change the towel's appearance visibly, but it affects how the raw material came to be before it ended up as a towel on your shelf. Choosing a towel from the Naram series means choosing a product where this has been factored into the choice of raw material, without compromising on colour or finish.

Quality you can feel

The quality of a towel isn't only about how the cotton was grown, but also about the weave itself. The Naram series from Bongusta has a light, softly draping cotton that differs from the heavy, densely woven terry towels many know from hotel bathrooms. The lighter weave means the towels dry faster between uses and take up less space in storage, while the three sizes make it possible to cover everything from hands to the whole body with the same quality and finish.

How to style organic towels in the bathroom

Because the towels from the Naram series come in so many colours, they can be actively used as part of the bathroom decor, not just as a practical tool.

Roll or fold on an open shelf

If you have an open shelf, you can roll the towels together by size and colour, so they function as a form of decoration in themselves. Feel free to mix two to three colours from the same family for a calm, coherent look, or contrasting colours for a more playful look.

Hang on a hook or rail

For everyday use, it's most practical to hang the towels on a hook or rail, where they dry faster than folded on a shelf. Choose a colour that matches your tiles or wall colour for a calm overall look, or a contrasting colour if the towel should be the room's eye-catcher.

Organic towels as a gift

An organic towel is a gift most people can use, and one that signals thoughtfulness about material choices. A small towel in 50×80 cm is a simple, affordable gift, while a bath sheet in 100×150 cm in a bold colour like Tropical & Creme is a more generous gift for someone who loves long baths or frequent trips to the beach. If you want to give a larger gift, you can put together a complete set across the three sizes in the same colour, so the recipient gets a complete, coherent set for the bathroom.

Season: organic towels all year round

Although the colours from the Naram series are often associated with summer, the beach and the pool, the towels are just as relevant in winter. A large towel provides extra comfort when stepping out of a warm bath during the cold season, while the bold colours can lift a bathroom that otherwise lacks colour during the winter months. In summer, the same towels instead work as a beach or pool towel, so you actually get use of the set all year round.

If you're looking specifically for the two largest formats in the Naram series, you can also see our full range of large bath towels in 70×140 and 100×150 cm.

How to keep track of colours in the household

If you share a bathroom with several people, the many colours in the Naram series can be used practically: give each family member their own colour or colour combination across the sizes. This way, you avoid mixing up towels, and it becomes easier to keep track of when each individual towel was last washed. A father, a mother and the children can each have their own colour from the range, while a shared guest towel in a fifth colour is kept aside for visitors.

Frequently asked questions about organic towels

What does it mean for a towel to be organic?

It means the cotton is grown without synthetic pesticides and artificial fertilisers. The Naram series from Bongusta is made from organic cotton and carries the OEKO-TEX label in our range.

What sizes are the organic towels available in?

The range covers three sizes: towel 50×80 cm, bath towel 70×140 cm and bath sheet 100×150 cm, all from Bongusta's Naram series.

Which brand is behind the organic towels?

All organic towels in the range are from Bongusta's Naram series, known for two-tone combinations in organic cotton across three sizes.

How many colours are the towels available in?

Each size comes in around ten colours and colour combinations, including Tropical & Creme, Sea Foam & Deep Teal and Baby Pink & Ski Patrol. A few colours, such as Blush and Moonbeam & Ultramarine, are only available in selected sizes.

Is organic cotton softer than regular cotton?

The material in the Naram series is light and airy, and it can feel different in the hand than heavier, densely woven towels. Towels generally tend to soften after several washes, provided you avoid fabric softener.

How do I wash my organic towels?

Follow the wash instructions on the individual product, and avoid fabric softener, as it can reduce the cotton's ability to absorb water. Let the towel dry fully before folding it.

Can the organic towels be used at the beach?

Yes, in particular the bath sheet in 100×150 cm is large enough to work as a beach towel, while the light cotton makes it practical to carry in a beach bag.

Are the small towels suitable for guests?

Yes, the 50×80 cm towel is an obvious size for guests by the basin, and with the many colours in the Naram series you can easily choose one that differs from the household's own towels.

Can I combine several sizes from the same series?

Yes, because all three sizes are from the Naram series and come in many of the same colours, it's easy to put together a set across 50×80, 70×140 and 100×150 cm.

Do the organic towels shrink when washed?

Cotton can shrink slightly during the first few washes, which is normal for natural fibres. Follow the wash instructions on the individual product to minimise shrinkage.

Are organic towels good for sensitive skin?

The material in organic cotton is grown without synthetic pesticides, which for many makes it a natural choice if you want to think more about the content of textiles that are in direct contact with the skin. If you're unsure what suits your skin best, it can be a good idea to seek advice from a dermatologist.

How many towels should a household have in each size?

This depends on the size of the household and how often you do laundry. A rule of thumb is two to three bath towels per person, while a couple of extra small towels in 50×80 cm are practical for hands and guests.

Do organic towels take up more or less space than regular ones?

The light weave in the Naram series means the towels generally take up less space in the cupboard than heavy, densely woven terry towels, while still feeling generous after a bath.

Where can you buy organic towels online?

You can buy organic towels online at Dims Studio, where you'll find Bongusta's Naram series in organic cotton in three sizes and many colours. See also our range of large bath towels.
