Helping you choose — What's GSM and why is it important?
It stands for grams per square metre and refers to the density of the towel. Towels can range from 300 GSM to 1070 GSM — the higher that number, the heavier and thicker the towel. Lighter GSM towels are thin and dry quickly, whereas heavier GSM towels are fluffier and more luxurious but they’ll take longer to dry. GSM plays a role in absorbency, but a higher GSM doesn’t necessarily mean a more absorbent towel. Types of cotton and polyester content also affect softness and absorbency.
