Aquis - The Original Microfiber Towel





 





Britanne: The original microfiber towel since 1990

 

The term "microfiber" is a measure of size, referring to ultra-fine fibers that are less than 1 denier per filament. In comparison with other materials, microfibers are twice as fine as silk and three times finer than cotton.

Microfibers are high performance fibers, engineered to carry out a number of functions such as transporting and managing moisture, and regulating heat.



Every Aquis® towel is made from Aquitex® microfiber. All microfibers are not created equal…and the technology behind each type of microfiber material is designed to produce a fiber with the specific characteristics important to its function and end-use.

Aquitex® microfiber has been perfected for more than 10 years, and is designed for the most efficient moisture transport while providing greater durability, comfort and softness than other microfiber towels.

Aquitex® microfiber has a unique hydrophilic capillary action that draws water faster, more thoroughly and gently from hair and skin than ordinary towels. Because it has been woven from ultrafine microfibers, Aquitex® has much more surface area for absorption and evaporation, which greatly increases its drying capabilities. This same technology also allows Aquis® towels to dry quickly between uses, keeping them fresher longer.

ULTRA ABSORBENT - Aquis® hair towels and our patented turbans are designed to gently absorb much of the excess, drippy water that is left behind after washing. This means you spend a lot less time with a blow dryer, and you don ’t need to harshly rub your hair dry - both of which can be unforgiving and unkind to hair. Aquis® hair towels and turbans help reduce split ends and damaged follicles, contributing to healthier hair while saving you time.

LIGHTWEIGHT AND COMPACT - For outdoor, sports and travel, Aquis® towels are lightweight, compact, durable and dry quickly - a perfect combination for any sports or outdoor enthusiast. Unlike other travel or sport towels, they feel extremely soft and supple, just like a towel you would use every day at home.

GENTLE ON SKIN AND HAIR - Aquis® towels are gentler on your skin and hair than a cotton towel. Simply blot to absorb excess moisture, rather than harsh rubbing.

QUICK-DRYING - Aquis® towels dry quickly between uses, allowing them to stay fresher longer.

DURABLE - Economically speaking, Aquis® towels are a smarter choice. They are much more durable than other towels, which allows them to last a lot longer.



All Aquis® products are made from the same Aquitex® microfiber. However, certain items are available in different finishes:

LISSE - Aquis® Lisse is the original, smooth and soft material for Aquis® towels. It is the most compact and lightweight weave, and is most popular for drying hair fast and for travel/outdoor.

WAFFLE WEAVE - Aquis® Waffle Weave is a small waffle pattern, and our most luxuriously soft, spa-like material.

TERRY - Aquis® Terry is a plush microfiber with a longer pile - incomparably soft.



The Aquis® turban is made from the same super absorbent Aquitex® material as our towels. Our patented turban design has a convenient button closure on the back and is extremely lightweight, which keeps it securely in place while it dries you hair. No more balancing act needed from a heavy cotton towel that flops around on your head while you're trying to get ready.


The Aquis® robe is made from the same super absorbent Aquitex® material as our towels. It has a shawl collar with deep patch pockets and a self-tie belt. It also has a button loop on the back to secure the tie so you never lose it.



Machine wash warm, Tumble dry medium. No chlorinated bleach, fabric softener or iron.
