Printed towel

As a promotional product, a towel with a printed design has an impact few other giveaways can match: it’s used every day, stays in use for years and keeps a large brand message in view.

A flyer ends up in the bin and a pen disappears into a drawer. A printed towel, on the other hand, goes to the bathroom, the gym or the beach every day, carrying your brand’s design with it. The print area is generous, the towel is genuinely useful and quality terry lasts an exceptionally long time. For companies that want to stand out in a crowded promotional market, a printed towel attracts plenty of attention at a modest cost. MÖVE Professional produces towels with photorealistic reactive printing, wash resistant and in certified premium terry, made in Germany.

• Daily brand exposure: seen every time the towel is used
• Standard print area of up to 100 × 180 cm, far larger than any comparable giveaway
• Durability: quality terry that stays beautiful through many washes
• Reactive printing: photorealistic, vibrant colours, with the design bonded into the fibre
• OEKO-TEX® Standard 100, product class 1, tested for harmful substances and suitable for sensitive skin
• Made in Germany: produced in Großschönau, Saxony, since 1927

Towels with printed designs work wherever a brand wants to be present, offer something of real value and be remembered, from company events to product launches.

Picture your guests leaving a company event or summer party with a quality towel bearing your logo or campaign design. It’s used every day and carries your brand story further. Sports clubs use this effect with club towels printed with their crest, gyms include them in welcome packs for new members, and consumer brands use them for product launches. Printed towels also work well as fan shop items, trade fair gifts or workplace health incentives. MÖVE Professional supplies them from 150 pieces (sauna towels, 80 × 180 cm and 100 × 180 cm), wash resistant and in certified terry.

• Events and trade fairs: a quality promotional towel that lasts, instead of yet another forgettable giveaway
• Sports clubs and gyms: a club towel or welcome gift with your club or gym logo
• Hotels and wellness: a durable sauna towel for guest use or as a welcome gift
• Consumer brands: a canvas for seasonal campaigns and brand messages people can feel, such as a beach towel for an ice cream or soft drink brand
• Fan shops and merchandise: printed towels as a lifestyle product to sell

MÖVE Professional prints custom designs on towels, from bold logo placements to all-over campaign designs, in rich colour and anything from graphic to photorealistic styles.

A towel offers far more space for design than many people realise. Logos, illustrations, photographs and patterns can cover the entire terry surface, with photorealistic detail and crisp outlines. MÖVE Professional will advise you on the right terry and the best placement for your design.

• All-over printing: your design across the entire towel, for maximum brand impact
• Logo placement: positioned precisely above the border, in a corner or in the centre
• Photographic designs: exceptional detail, even for complex images
• Print width up to 100 cm: for large bath, sauna and beach towels
• Length of your choice: flexible towel sizes for different uses

For vibrant, detailed designs that last on terry towels, MÖVE Professional uses reactive printing, a method that combines true depth of colour with excellent wash resistance on cotton terry.

In reactive printing, the dye bonds chemically with the cotton fibre, so the design sits within the fibre rather than on top of it. There’s no surface film, no cracking and no fading in the wash. The result is photorealistic designs with brilliant depth of colour that stay stable through many washes. Unlike pigment or transfer printing, the terry structure remains fully intact, so the towel keeps its pleasant feel and full absorbency. MÖVE Professional uses reactive printing for towels with printed designs that are highly wash resistant.

• Reactive printing: the dye bonds chemically with the fibre, with no film and no transfer
• Vibrant colour: photorealistic, rich in depth and evenly applied
• Wash resistance: designs stay sharp after heavy use and frequent washing
• Terry structure intact: full absorbency and a soft feel
• OEKO-TEX® Standard 100, product class 1, tested for harmful substances and suitable for sensitive skin

For a good print on terry, you’ll need vector logos or raster files of at least 76.2 dpi, and a production partner who understands the particular demands of printing on terry.

Terry isn’t a smooth surface: its looped structure affects how detail comes out, especially with very fine lines or small lettering. For simple graphic designs with clear outlines, clean vector files are the best starting point. Photorealistic designs and halftones require an image resolution of 76.2 dpi. Our in-house design studio checks every print file and gives technical advice on how to optimise it.

• Vector files: logos and graphics as AI, EPS or PDF, for sharp, scalable edges
• Raster files: minimum resolution of 76.2 dpi
• Simple graphics: clear outlines, up to 16 colours
• Photographs and halftones: high quality images for photorealistic results
• Mind the terry structure: have very fine lines and small lettering checked in advance
• Made in Germany: produced in Großschönau, Saxony, since 1927
