Is the towel truly sand-proof?

What material is the towel made from?
It is made from DryQ™ fabric, which is crafted using 100% recycled post-consumer plastic.
Can I use fabric softener when washing?
No, it is recommended not to use fabric softeners or bleach, as they can damage the special quick-dry fabric.

The large size offers ample coverage, designed to be extra-large for comfortable lounging.

Troubleshooting
Towel still feels damp after initial use
Ensure the towel is fully exposed to air and not folded or packed while still wet. Allow it to air dry completely.
Sand is difficult to remove completely
Shake the towel vigorously outdoors. The loop-less weave is designed for easy sand removal; if stubborn grains remain, a gentle brush might help, but usually vigorous shaking is sufficient.
Reduced absorbency or drying speed
Check for buildup of fabric softener or detergent residue. Wash the towel again with a small amount of mild detergent (no softener or bleach) and rinse thoroughly.
Towel has an odor
Wash the towel according to the care instructions. Odors can sometimes occur if the towel was packed away before being fully dry. Ensure thorough drying after washing.
