Do you know wet towels promote the growth of bacteria and other microorganisms? On top of that, bathroom towels are placed under dark conditions that provide the perfect atmosphere for disease-causing bacteria such as Escherichia coli or Salmonella to grow. Just take a look at the 2003 case of MSRA infection breakout from sharing towels by a college football team in Los Angeles. Also, dirty and wet towels are especially dangerous for young kids at home.

4 – Dry and Clean: a Concept Towel Dryer by Puredesign (Not for sale)
For clean, dry and fluffy towels, you should consider using devices like Dry & Clean. Developed by PureDesign, Dry & Clean looks like a hanger of sorts but it is loaded with a turbine. The mini turbine is capable of pumping out hot air and it also uses ultraviolet light which disinfects the towel. In effect, your towels would dry up sooner than you think, they would be clean and disinfected and they will smell good. Have you ever smelled your towel and got a stinky odor? Have you ever felt the bristles of the fabric when they get stiff? All this happens because of improper drying and cleaning of towels.
With Dry & Clean, your towels will be safe, fresh, dry and they would feel nice as well. Who doesn’t want fresh towels that smell nice and get dry quickly or remain dry whenever one has to use them? With the physical appearance, attributes, the intended purpose and the efficacy with which Dry & Clean attends to drying and cleaning your towels, there shouldn’t be any ambiguity as to whether you need it or not. Of course, durability and price will be a concern and any person will make an informed choice. But from the perspective of utility, Dry & Clean makes ample sense and is certainly a promising product.
