Commercial Hand Towels

Fold

M-fold, Z-fold, C-fold or another dispenser-specific format.

Material

Pulp direction, color and wet-use reference.

Construction

Ply, GSM/basis weight and finished towel dimensions.

Dispenser fit

Folded dimensions, stack height and dispensing reference.

Pack

Towels per bundle, bundles per carton and bulk labeling.

Operations

Storage, replenishment frequency and carton handling should be included in the RFQ.

MOQ

Confirmed after product specification, pack structure and artwork route are aligned.

Samples

Reference samples or a custom sample route can be reviewed before bulk planning.

Lead time

Confirmed against material, printed packaging, quantity and the current production plan.

Delivery basis

EXW, FOB or destination guidance is discussed against the final shipment plan.

Carton and loading

Units per carton, carton dimensions and loading estimates follow the approved SKU.

Evidence

Certificate and test applicability is matched to the quoted material, route and destination market.

Folded hand towels

Record C-fold, V-fold, Z-fold or multifold terminology exactly as the candidate specification describes it, plus folded and unfolded dimensions. Similar names are not proof that two refills dispense identically.

Installed dispenser

Photograph the model label and record the refill opening, permitted stack height and loading method. Test a sample through the intended operating range and record multiple pulls, tearing and refill handling.

Roll towel enquiries

For hardwound or centre-feed enquiries, identify the system, roll width, diameter, core or spindle requirements and feed mechanism. Availability of a compatible candidate must be confirmed rather than inferred from this category page.

Define one use

For a buyer trial, define one completed hand-drying event and use the same observation method and dispenser conditions for each candidate. Record usable towels taken, failed pulls, waste and refill work separately; this is an editorial trial record, not a laboratory method.

Calculate

Paper cost per observed use = allocated cost of towels consumed during the trial ÷ completed hand-drying events. For a hypothetical 1,000 events consuming paper costed at $18, paper-only cost is $0.018 per event. Add measured waste or labour only if they are not already in the numerator.

Keep the comparison honest

Record the trial period, event count, case-to-sheet conversion and whether cost includes delivery. A restaurant wiping task is a different denominator; use the linked cost-in-use guide for the calculation structure without pooling the two tasks.

1. Define the target

Separate required and preferred fields: material, ply, GSM per ply, unfolded dimensions, sheets or roll length, dispensing system, pack count and destination. A competitor reference describes your target, not an approved VELUPLY SKU.

2. Confirm the sample route

Ask about an existing reference sample or a custom development sample. Availability, sample quantity, charges, artwork or tooling, courier cost and timing are confirmed in writing for the proposed configuration. Do not send samples to the company filing address.

3. Agree the evidence

List the required certificate or test, destination, intended use and acceptance criteria. Confirm the relevant holder, manufacturing site, product scope, validity and permitted label use. Competitor certificates do not establish certification for our product.

4. Approve the production brief

Record the specification version, approved sample, packaging artwork, units per carton, carton dimensions, gross weight, quantity, delivery basis and inspection criteria. Unconfirmed values remain open until quotation and sample review.

For example, a hotel buying facial tissue can compare sheet size and dispensing fit first, then approve a sample and carton specification. This describes a planning workflow, not a completed customer project or a product test result.
