When it comes to microfiber companies, there has (Historically) been a substantial difference between towels made in China, towels made in China using South Korean fiber, and towels made in South Korea.
South Korea has long been considered the place where the world's best microfiber comes from, but it costs a lot more to produce towels there than China.
So, some manufacturers decided to purchase raw materials from South Korea, but use their Chinese factories to produce the towels, and that way they could get away with calling their towels "Korean" without having to pay the production costs of a Korean factory. A lot of microfiber manufacturers pull that move, so unless they tell you their Korean towels are sourced AND produced there, you may not be getting the whole picture.
Anyway, I digress.
We're known for our super high-quality South Korean microfiber towels, all of which are made IN South Korean factories. But, we had a longtime demand to offer more affordable towels as well, so we spent well over a year looking until we found a factory in China that met our high expectations.
After a long search, we found one that fit the bill. The factory we use for our more affordable Chinese towels is a factory that actually cares about quality. Rather than using locally-sourced machinery like nearly every other Chinese microfiber factory, ours uses the latest state-of-the-art machinery from Germany, (Just like our Korean factories) and can go toe-to-toe with the microfiber that comes out of most competitor's
South Korean factories.
Anyway, sorry for the tangent, but whether you get our Korean or our Chinese microfiber, it's going to be good, and they're going to perform as-good or better than any other microfiber out there.
The reason the Chinese towels cost less is simply due to the fact that they cost less to produce.
The advantage of buying towels from us, though, is that
our Chinese towels actually work well, when many others out there don't.
