Saaren Taika hamam towels - wrap yourself in the soft embrace of cotton

Relax in the embrace of the soft Saari Taika hamam towel. These large and absorbent towels are authentic Turkish craftsmanship that has been passed down from generation to generation.

Our hamam towels are genuine Turkish cotton

Saari Taika hamam towels are made from genuine Turkish cotton, which has longer fibers than regular cotton. The extra-long cotton fibers make the fabric feel thin and smooth, yet it is more absorbent than many other materials. Because of this, Turkish cotton is often used in luxury hotels due to its high quality and pleasant feel.

Responsibly made hammam towels

Saaren Taika manufactures authentic Turkish hamam towels with the help of contracted manufacturers. We have personally gotten to know and met our partners.

The smaller manufacturers we use are family-run entrepreneurs who mainly employ their own family members. The towels of these manufacturers are Oeko-tex certified, and the employees enjoy good working conditions and are insured. The larger factories we cooperate with have gone through numerous inspections and have received Oeko-tex, GRS, GOTS certificates and a report on Ethical Trade auditing.

About 200-300 employees work in these factories, all of whom are insured. In the factories, female workers are especially supported and, for example, tying the ends of towels is done exclusively by female workers. All the contract manufacturers we use are committed to green change and sustainability. Some of the factories have installed solar panels to utilize solar energy.

We also manufacture products that consist of 100% cotton recycled threads.

Multipurpose hammam towel

A hamam towel is not just a bath towel. It can also be used as a picnic blanket, scarf, sarong, beach towel and many other handy everyday textiles. It's highly absorbent and dries quickly, making it perfect for traveling, at the cabin, on the boat, backpacking, or at school!

Hamam towel vs terry towel

A hamam towel differs from a terry towel in many ways. Hammam towels are flat handwoven cotton, while terry towels are a tufted weave. Hamam towels are thin, but more absorbent than terry towels. In addition, the absorbency and drying speed of the hamam towel improve the more you wash it, while the terry towel starts to lose its absorbency from the very first washes.

Hamam towels offer soft luxury

The soft hamam towel is gentle on your skin and hair. It is especially suitable for sensitive skin and reduces hair wear compared to a traditional terry towel. By using a hammam towel, you can dry yourself significantly less than with a traditional terry towel, so your skin is spared from excessive "rubbing" and feels better.

Hamam towel care

The hamam towel should be pre-washed by soaking it in lukewarm water for a few hours or overnight, so that the long cotton fibers open up and reach their absorbency. Some hammam towels may need several washes before reaching full absorbency, but that's only a good thing: a genuine Turkish hamam towel only gets better with wear!

The quality and durability of Saari Taika hamam towels

Saari Taika Hamam towels are Oeko-Tex certified cotton. Weavers who are skilled with their hands work in good working conditions and are insured. Like all natural materials, cotton and bamboo also shrink somewhat when washed. Our hamam towels may shrink by about 10% in the first washes.
