Many people are only now beginning to understand that single-use paper products, like paper toweling, deplete our forest resources and create solid waste that must be incinerated or sent to landfills. As solid waste handling and disposal costs rise, cloth toweling becomes an increasingly attractive alternative. |
| Society's concern with hygiene has intensified in recent years as well. Studies have shown cloth toweling to be the most effective and hygienic hand drying method -- better than paper, and considerably better than hot air. As more people focus on health issues and learn that fears about continuous towel hygiene are unfounded, more will opt for cloth toweling over paper or air. |
