Quick Answer

Wash your NanoDry Packable Shower Towel in cold water with mild detergent, skip fabric softener, and air dry it flat to keep it fast-drying and absorbent.

Why Care Matters for Nanofiber

The NanoDry Packable Shower Towel is made from fast-drying nanofiber that absorbs twice its weight in water. That performance depends on the fibers staying clean and uncoated. Fabric softeners and dryer sheets leave a residue that can reduce absorbency and slow drying.

Air drying is gentler than machine drying and preserves the towel's shape and packability. A little care goes a long way in keeping your travel towel lightweight and ready for the next adventure.

Step-by-Step Cleaning Routine

  1. Pre-rinse: Rinse the towel under cold running water to remove loose dirt and sweat before washing. A quick pre-rinse prevents dirt from setting into the fibers.
  2. Wash with mild detergent: Use cold water and a small amount of mild, bleach-free detergent. Hand wash or use a gentle machine cycle. Avoid fabric softeners and dryer sheets—they coat the nanofiber and reduce absorbency.
  3. Rinse thoroughly: Rinse until the water runs clear to ensure no soap residue remains. Leftover detergent can attract dirt and slow drying.
  4. Air dry flat: Lay the towel flat or hang it in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. Do not machine dry. Air drying preserves the towel's shape and keeps it packable.
  5. Store dry: Once fully dry, fold the towel and store it in its silicone case or a dry pouch. Storing a damp towel can cause mildew—always check it's completely dry.
