Lightload Towels from Dyna-E Inc. are lightweight towels that are packaged in tiny briquettes about the size of a silver dollar that expand once they are removed from the waterproof package. Because they pack down considerably in size—the largest reduces to 1.5 inches by less than 6 inches and weigh six ounces—they are great for storing in tight spaces like suitcases, small pouches and backpacks. Sizes available are 36 by 60 inch, 12 by 24 inch, and 12 by 12 inch.
For travel, hiking, camping and at home
Lightload towels are extremely versatile, and can be used in a variety of ways at home or when traveling, hiking, camping and at the beach. Made of 100 percent viscose, they are more absorbent than microfiber and cotton. Because they absorb up to nine times their weight in water they function well as a diaper and drying cloth. They are wickable, and in cold weather they pull water away from the body to keep a person warm and in hot weather they wick water away from the body to keep a person cooler. The towels act as survival tools and provide insulation against the heat and cold, and can be used as a wind scarf, facemask, fire starter, strainer, first aid supplement, static electricity insulator and more. They are hypoallergenic, soft against the skin, and available in orange, green and yellow. Lightload Towels can be hand washed or discarded, as they are made of bio based materials.
Great sales through demonstration
Lightload Towels owner George Wheeler launched the company in 2002. He is an avid long distance hiker, and in 1999 he trekked the 2,160-mile Appalachian Trail. It was on this hike that Wheeler was inspired to create Lightload Towels. “Our towels fit in a pocket. Our full sized beach towels are packaged to fit easily in a pants pocket and weigh about the size of two bandanas. You can hold a bunch of our smaller size towels in your hand and still have room for keys and money,” Wheeler explains. “Our towels are great demonstration products. Vendors need to open up a towel and show people how it works. Once they see how convenient and functional the towels are, people often buy them by the box.”
The minimum order is one dozen towels. Lightload beach towels wholesale for $52.20 for a countertop box of 12. Beach towels retail for $9.95 each. A three-pack of 12 by 24 inch towels wholesales for $3.50 and retails for $6.25, and the two-pack of 12 by 12 inch towels wholesales for $.83 and retails for $2.75. Orders of fifty two- or three-pack towels come in colorful countertop displays. Lightload Towels offers custom logo printing.
