Hammam Towel – From the Sauna to a Versatile Companion

The hamam towel, also known as a pestemal, is a traditional Turkish towel that was originally used in steam baths. Thanks to its light weight and relatively compact size when folded, it’s ideal not only for the sauna and bathroom, but also for the beach, the pool, travel, or picnics.

Depending on the material, weave, and size, a hammam towel can be used as a hand towel, beach towel, light blanket, or mat. Information on absorbency, drying time, and care instructions can be found directly on the product page.

What is a hammam towel used for?

Depending on its size and design, a hammam towel can be used in a variety of ways:

At the beach or pool, it serves as a lightweight hand towel or beach towel. In the sauna, it can be used as a mat or for drying off. Thanks to its compact size, it’s also easy to take along when traveling or for outdoor activities.

Larger models can also be used as a lightweight blanket, a picnic blanket, or a decorative throw. Whether the cloth is suitable for the intended use depends on its size, material, and workmanship.

Clean hammam towels properly

When caring for your garment, always follow the instructions on the care label, as washing temperatures and drying instructions may vary depending on the model.

If specified for the product in question, the hammam towel can be washed at up to 40 °C with similar colors. Use a detergent suitable for the material and avoid bleach if it is not permitted according to the care label.

Please also refer to the product-specific care instructions to determine whether the cloth can be dried in a clothes dryer or ironed. Proper care can help preserve the colors, shape, and material properties for longer.
