From the label:

The Gauze surface causes less stress on the skin and is gentle on the touch even for those with sensitive skin. 
The washing process is done slowly using "uchibuki water" from the Ishizuchi Mountains, which is highly rated as drinking water, giving the fabric a natural and soft texture without putting any stress on the fibres.

Made in Imabari prefecture Japan, it is woven on the renowned TOYODA loom. It can be woven slowly without putting strain on the thread, creating a soft and unique texture. 
We have used organic materials, not only for the towel itself but also for the name tag.

Botanical Dye Yarn

The gauze surface is made of yarn dyed with natural dyes extracted from bamboo charcoal, coffee and tea. The beautiful colours of the natural pigments give it a gentle natural feel. 
 

Key Features:

Organic Materials: Made entirely from certified organic cotton, including the threads and tags, ensuring a product that's gentle on both skin and environment.

Natural Dyeing Process: Utilizes plant-based dyes for colouring, resulting in unique, muted hues without the use of synthetic chemicals.

Traditional Weaving Techniques: Employs low-speed, vintage looms to maintain fiber softness and durability, a method that modern machinery cannot replicate.

Pre-Washed with Pure Spring Water: Each towel undergoes a gentle cleansing process using spring water from Mt. Ishizuchi, enhancing absorbency and ensuring purity.

 

The Kontex Graph Collection is a testament to sustainable luxury, offering towels that are as pleasing to the senses as they are to the conscience.

Kontex Graph Collection

Crafted in the renowned textile region of Imabari, Japan, the Kontex Graph Collection embodies a harmonious blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern design. Each towel is meticulously woven from 100% organic cotton on vintage Toyoda looms—one of the last of their kind—preserving the integrity of the fibers and ensuring exceptional softness.

The towels feature a double-faced design: one side showcases a smooth, breathable gauze adorned with a classic windowpane pattern, while the reverse offers a plush terry pile for superior absorbency. Natural botanical dyes, derived from bamboo charcoal, coffee, and black tea, impart subtle, earthy tones that resonate with a minimalist aesthetic.

Experience

Kontex wash clothes and towels are the perfect accompaniment to the traditional Japanese bath experience. We chose the soft texture and muted tones to pair well with Japanese Hinoki Bathware
