Products
-
Torres Novas products are made of 100% high-quality cotton, with long fibers, combining softness and comfort with resistance and durability. Only 100% natural, biodegradable, and environmentally friendly fibers are used, never using artificial or polluting fibers like
polyester. -
All Torres Novas products are manufactured in Portugal, by partners with decades of partnership with Torres Novas, and who combine tradition with the most modern confection techniques.
-
Torres Novas products are manufactured under OEKO-TEX® certification. This certification guarantees that hazardous chemicals are not used at any stage of the textile production process.
Our products are therefore extensively tested throughout the production chain to ensure that cotton is not treated with harmful chemicals such as pesticides or lead.

No. It is perfectly normal for terry cloth towels and other good quality terry cloth products to shed during their first few uses.
This is due to the use of low-twist yarns, which provide great softness. Dark coloured towels (petroleum blue, cobalt blue, cardinal red, peony pink, brownie, dark olive, blue flag, orange red, red, olive drab, black, blue France, dove, tangerine, and saffron yellow) shed a little more in the first few washes and take longer to stabilize.
Therefore, we recommend machine washing them at least three times in cold water before first using them to stabilize shedding.
-
It is normal for there to be a slight shrinkage with the first few washes. This is because we only use 100% natural fibers and the production process does not include chemical agents such as formaldehyde, used to pre-shrink articles industrially, thus minimizing any environmental impact and guaranteeing the towels’ quality. If the recommended care instructions are followed, shrinkage is limited to 10%.
-
Yes, since only cotton is used in their manufacture, Torres Novas products do not pose any risk for people with atopic skin. Products are not a risk for people with asthma either, as shedding will be minimal after the first few washes.

Caring for your Torres Novas
-
We recommend washing weekly or after 5-7 uses.
-
We recommend machine washing with cold water, although it is safe to use water up to 40ºC. Only wash with same-color terry cloth products and without fabric softener. Using fabric softener makes towels less absorbent, so this should be avoided as much as possible. If you have accidentally used fabric softener, don't worry. You can still use your towels, and their full absorption capacities will be regained during their next wash cycle.
For maximum softness, Torres Novas towels can be thrown in the dryer at low to moderate temperatures. If you use a traditional clothesline, avoid direct exposure to the sun and remove towels before they’re fully dry to prevent them from getting too hard. If they become hard, do not worry, they will recover their softness after a few uses.
-
Torres Novas towels are built to last several years with adequate use and following of care instructions. They should only need replacement once you feel they have lost their natural softness and absorption.
-
We advise hanging them on a towel rack or hanger immediately after using them. This is important to avoid the development of moisture and bad smells.
-
Torres Novas towels should be kept in a cool and dry place. Avoid damp areas.
