Yunus makes its move into the bath & beach segment New York – has signed an exclusivity agreement with the owners of the patented weaveRight quick dry towel construction for North America Through the agreement, Yunus is breaking the classic “quick dry” towel out of its zero-twist construction constraints The weaveRight patent covers the manner in which the ground of a terry towel is constructed causing the moisture to wick outward at a faster pace than a traditionally woven terry cloth ground This in turn allows the towel to dry faster than normally woven terry cloth towels both ambiently and in a dryer The partnership expands on the bedding manufacturer’s vertically integrated production of sheets Yunus is working with some of top towel manufacturers in Pakistan “This sourcing flexibility allows us to supply many iconic constructions, choosing the best quality products from the three countries. We already have handshake agreements with some partners and are working to get those commitments translated to Pos,” he added Kambak noted that the “quick dry” towel construction was created in reaction to skyrocketing cotton costs about 15 years ago Manufacturers compensated by using less cotton in a towel They added a zero-twist loop system that opened up the loops and increased air flow to speed drying “The issue is only zero twist towels could truly be considered ‘quick dry,’ as they were always compared to similar weight ring spun towels we can promote any towel construction as ‘quick dry,’ as the weaveRight patented towel ground makes every construction quick drying when compared to its same construction using a traditional cotton towel ground,” he explained Yunus can promote a 700 GSM 2-ply WeaveRight towel “quick dry” since it dries faster than a 700 GSM cotton towel of the same spec Matt Dalton, inventor and patent holder of said he partnered with Yunus because of both the companies hold a shared vision of solution-focused innovation “The company has done a fine job climbing to the pinnacle of the bedding manufacturers landscape,” Dalton added “I believe they will bring the same level of development and ultimately execution to the weaveRight line of beach and bath products.” Yunus will debut the weaveRight terry lines during the New York Home Fashions
