There’s nothing quite like wrapping yourself in a soft, plush towel after a hot shower. That feeling of warmth, comfort, and indulgence is the hallmark of a luxury towel — and at Delilah Home, we believe you should experience that every day.
But what actually makes a towel luxurious? The secret lies in the science — from the fiber quality to the weave, to something you may not have heard of before: GSM.
Let’s take a closer look at what defines true quality and why Delilah Home’s 700 GSM organic bath towels are among the best bath towels you’ll ever own.
1. What Is GSM — and Why It Matters
GSM stands for grams per square meter, a measure of fabric density and weight. In simple terms, GSM tells you how thick, plush, and absorbent a towel will feel.
- Low GSM (300–400): Lightweight towels, often quick-drying but less plush.
- Medium GSM (450–600): Balanced softness and absorbency — ideal for everyday use.
- High GSM (650–900): Dense, spa-quality towels with superior softness and luxurious heft.
At 700 GSM, Delilah Home’s organic bath towels sit right in the sweet spot — thick and absorbent, yet breathable and easy to dry. Every towel feels like a warm embrace after a shower, a true at-home spa experience.
2. Fiber Quality: The Foundation of Softness
Not all cotton is created equal. The longer the fiber, the softer and stronger the yarn becomes.
Delilah Home’s towels are made from 100% GOTS-certified organic cotton, using long-staple fibers that produce smoother, stronger yarns. Unlike conventional cotton, which may be treated with harsh chemicals, our organic cotton is grown naturally — preserving the purity and softness of every strand.
The result? Towels that feel incredibly plush from day one and become even softer with every wash.
3. Absorbency: Where Luxury Meets Performance
A truly luxury towels doesn’t just feel soft — it works beautifully. High GSM density allows for deeper, more efficient water absorption, but fiber structure and weaving technique also play major roles.
Our towels are woven in Portugal by expert artisans who specialize in high-loop terry construction, which maximizes surface area for better absorbency without unnecessary bulk. Each loop acts like a mini sponge, quickly drawing moisture away while remaining gentle on the skin.
It’s the perfect balance of performance and comfort — dry off faster, feel better longer.
4. Sustainability Adds to the Luxury
True luxury isn’t just about touch — it’s about integrity.
Delilah Home’s towels are crafted in family-run factories in Portugal that uphold ethical labor standards and eco-friendly manufacturing practices. They’re dyed using low-reactive, non-toxic dyes, ensuring that what touches your skin is pure, safe, and planet-friendly.
Every towel is GOTS Certified, Vegan Certified, and made from 100% organic cotton, so you can feel as good about your purchase as your skin feels after using it.
5. Longevity: Softness That Lasts
Many towels feel soft the first time you use them — but lose that plushness after a few washes. Delilah Home towels are designed differently.
Our premium organic fibers maintain their softness and structure over time, resisting thinning, fraying, and fading. Thanks to the dense 700 GSM weave, they hold up beautifully through countless wash cycles — proving that luxury and durability can coexist naturally.
