SUPPLIER PROFILE: A&R Textile Group
A&Ris adding true colour to the towel and bathrobes market
Do you have difficulty in finding good quality towels and bathrobes these days? You won’t anymore. A&R Textile Group is popular in mainland Europe and in Dubai. Earlier this year the company launched its products into the UK and Ireland.
Where it started Six years ago A&R started exhibiting at The Hotel Show in Dubai; bringing good quality towels direct to hotel business in the sunny deserts of the Middle East. But towels in the hotel business are mostly white. Hotels over there really like the soft Turkish cotton products which are much softer than others available on the market.
Dutch market
In the Dutch resellers market to the premium/ printing and embroidery industry there were lots of towels and bathrobes in use. The only problem was always that there was no variety in the colours available. So A&R decided to change that and started with a range of 13 colours in four sizes. These sizes were made very generous. So there were no more problems with short sleeves or larger people not fitting into a robe.
The collection is still growing A&R listens to its customer, and as a result larger sizes have been added to its range of bathrobes. Now A&R does bathrobes in six sizes from XXS to XXXL. The colour range has also been extended to include 21 colours available from stock.
Towels in 21 colours
A&R has a complete range of towels from Guest Towels (30x50cm) and Hand Towels (50x100cm) to Bath Towels (70x140cm) and Beach Towels (100x180cm), and last but not least the Big Towel (100x210cm). All are made from the soft Turkish cotton. No borders on the towels means almost no shrinking and losing the shape of the towel. All towels are double stitched all around. There are plenty of fresh colours to show your customers, and they can colour match all the way through from the small towel to the bathrobe in the same colour.
Baby and children bathrobes Babiezz is the brand which brings a range of products from terry baby bibs in different styles and many colours. A&R also does baby hooded towels in 25 colour combinations, meaning there is always a colour to match to a babyʼs bedroom. Last but most wanted, the Baby Bathrobes in three sizes from 0-12 months onwards. Boyzz and Girlzz have the larger size bathrobes (four sizes) for children up into their teenage years.
Proper production method All products are made in Turkey and produced accordingly to the environmental rules as set out in the industry of textile production. Also made accordingly to Oeko-Tex rulings. No child labour is accepted in the terry production in A&Rʼs factories.
Sublimation towels
A&R carries the widest range of colours in sublimation towelling. It does a Sport Towel (30x140cm), a Hand Towel
(50x100cm) and a Bath Towel (70x140cm). All of these products are available in 11 colours. In sublimation towelling, A&R also has the new Baby Hooded Towel and Baby Bibs with a sublimation border. These are great to sell with a picture of Grandma or Grandpa.
DTG printable towels In February, several people asked A&R at Printwear & Promotion LIVE! for special towels which could be printed with direct to garment printers. The company listened and developed these towels for its customers. A&R is due to launch its range of Direct Printable Towels in 11 colours in the autumn. They will have a border on both sides of the towel which can be printed by DTG printing, but can also be printed with direct silkscreen or transfer print.
