Laundry Hacks: How Striped Towels Simplify Sorting and Stacking
Have you ever noticed those subtle stripes on hotel towels and wondered why they’re there? While they may look like a simple design choice, those lines actually serve a very practical purpose—especially in large-scale laundry operations like hotels, gyms, and spas.
In the world of commercial laundering, every second counts. Staff are responsible for processing hundreds, sometimes thousands, of linens each day. That’s where striped towels come in—not as a decorative touch, but as a visual hack that simplifies sorting, folding, and stacking.
Visual Identification at a Glance
One of the biggest challenges in hotel laundry rooms is keeping track of different types of towels: hand towels, washcloths, bath towels, pool towels, and spa wraps. When everything is white, it can be hard to tell them apart quickly. Adding colored or textured stripes to different towel types offers an immediate visual cue.
For instance, bath towels may have a thick vertical stripe near one end, while hand towels might feature a thin horizontal band across the center. These small differences save workers from having to unfold or measure each towel to know where it belongs.
