Complete Importer’s Guide to Buying Towels in Bulk from India

indian bath towels

India is one of the leading exporters of home textiles, known for its 100% cotton, combed cotton, velour, and jacquard beach towels, as well as organic cotton towels, which are a new trend.

In this blog, we will discuss in detail how India and Enrock Impex can be the right choice for buyers of all sizes, right from retailer, wholeseller or large importers and hospitality institutes.

As a buyer, one should know the key points to keep in mind while selecting the best exporter for their required towel needs.

1. Quality of the Towel

Here, one should clearly understand the type of towels needed for their market.

Towels can broadly be classified under 2 major headings

A) Type of Yarn Used: India is a major producer of towels, especially in 100% cotton, ring-spun cotton, zero twist, velour towels, jacquard towels, and Supima towels. The customer should be able to discuss the quality of the yarn needed for their towels. 

B) GSM of the towel 

GSM simply refers to the thickness of the towel. It is broadly classified in the following format: 

300–400 GSM: Lightweight, quick-drying 

400–600 GSM: Medium-weight, versatile 

600–900 GSM: Heavyweight, luxurious.

Based on these two parameters, that is, the yarn and the GSM, the quality of the towel can be well defined, which is needed in the local market. 

2) Parameters to choose the right exporter of towels

A) Valid Licence and registrations: 

An exporter should be able to supply or show a number of government documents that would validate them as an exporter from India.

* IEC (Importer Exporter Code)

* FIEO member 

* GST registration 

* Company registration 

Note: exporters who can provide additional quality assurance with the support of third party inspection agencies like SGS should always be given a priority, as here the quality and the quantity is verified and inspected by reputed agency like SGS. 

Enrock Impex is qualified through all the above mentioned parameters and certifications. In addition, if the importer party and India have a free trade agreemen,t then we would be happy to provide you the certificate of origin from the Indian customs department. 

Customization and Packing

Unlike China, the exporters from India also provide better customisation and high-quality packaging options to its clients. 

Under customisation, we can take various aspects like the labels, brand embroidery, gift packaging, occasion description, example wedding etc or any other type of customization that would be required by the buyer can be done all under one roof. 

When it comes to packaging the customers have an option to choose the packaging as required by them. It can be bulk Bale packing or Carton packing.

Both types of packaging are valid for the export of towels. Better communication,  timely reporting, and sharing information with the buyers have gained their confidence and trust in recent times. Customers have the option to choose their own shipping agency or if they want, the Indian exporters also help them by quoting FOB or CIF price as needed. 

In all the complete process, right from procuring the yarns to the final dispatch, has been synchronised in a proper format. 

This indirectly helps the exporters to give a proper timeline to the importers. Example for a 20 feet container, the timeline would be anywhere between 25 to 35 days, whereas for a 40 feet  HQ container, the timeline would be anywhere between 50 to 60 days. 

This helps the buyers to plan their shipping transit with their custom House.
