Why not buy American? This family Value Pack is earth-friendly and made from 100% USA-Grown Organic cotton. 15% polyester is added to the body of the towel to help maintain its shape, reduce shrinkage and last longer. These brightly colored, absorbent Pool & Beach Towels are manufactured with the family - and the environment- in mind. We even used dyes that are vegetable based, with less harsh chemicals. So you can feel satisfied knowing that you are purchasing the right towels for your family, the earth, and for the USA's hard-working cotton farmers. These long-lasting towels are made at a factory so eco-friendly we use geo-thermal water from a nearby volcano instead of fossil fuels to power the boilers! And clean hydroelectric energy is used to power the mill. Factory is Oeko-Tex Certified.
