The Flax Line towels from Kontex are double woven with a neutral terry cloth on one side and a herringbone gauze with colored stripes on the other side. Their cotton is 100% organically grown,
The story behind it: KONTEX produces its fabrics exclusively on traditional looms, and has done so since 1934, when Kontex was founded in Imabari (Japan).
This method is very time-consuming - compared to modern mass production on high-speed machines - but produces far better results in terms of absorbency, softness and drying properties. The yarn is also processed much more gently because it is subjected to less stress.
Kontex towels are made of cotton and linen. Their fibers are cleaned in the mineral-poor spring waters of Mount Ishizuchi. A natural orange oil is used for dyeing.
