Yes. Anabyn provides free hotel towel and bed linen samples to qualified hotel, resort, and hospitality procurement buyers. Free samples include: up to 3 standard GSM options (e.g., 500, 550, and 600 GSM bath towels) in standard white. Free sample shipment is by air courier (DHL/FedEx) at our cost to most destinations. Buyers pay local customs/import duties on sample shipments where applicable. Samples are provided to hotel procurement teams, purchasing agents, and hospitality supply chain buyers with a valid business email and buying intent.
Available free samples: Hotel bath towels (550 GSM standard white, 70×140cm) - 2 pieces. Hotel hand towels (400 GSM, 40×60cm) - 2 pieces. Hotel face cloths (400 GSM, 30×30cm) - 2 pieces. GSM swatch card - 350/450/500/550/600/650 GSM comparison set. Hotel bed sheet sample (T-250 percale, queen size flat sheet) - 1 piece. All samples OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified with documentation. Custom GSM or size samples (non-stock) may incur a nominal sample charge; contact us for specifics.
Standard samples from existing stock: 5–10 business days by DHL/FedEx air courier to most destinations. GCC countries (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman, Kuwait): 3–5 business days. Europe: 5–7 business days. USA/Canada: 7–10 business days. Australia: 7–10 business days. Africa: 7–14 business days. Custom-made samples (non-stock specifications): add 15–20 days for production before dispatch. Track your sample shipment with DHL/FedEx tracking number provided on dispatch.
Standard stock samples (in-stock GSM and product types) are free of charge including courier cost. Non-stock custom samples (custom GSM, custom colour, or custom embroidery) may require a refundable sample charge of USD 50–100 credited against the first production order. To request samples: submit the sample request form, share your hotel or company name, buying quantity estimate, and target GSM/product type. Samples are prioritised for buyers with concrete procurement timelines.
Yes. Branded/embroidered hotel towel samples can be provided with your hotel logo or name. Embroidery on sample towels: lead time 3–4 weeks (embroidery setup + production + shipping). Sample cost for embroidered towels: refundable USD 100 setup charge credited against first order. Embroidery thread colour matching and embroidery position mockup provided for approval before production. We recommend requesting plain samples first to confirm GSM and quality, then confirming embroidery on a small set before full container order.
Our standard minimum is 500 pcs / SKU for towels, 200 sets / spec for bed linen, and 200 pcs / style for bathrobes. "Per SKU" means per size and colour combination. We can run 300 pcs (trial run, small premium) for a genuine first trial. Below roughly 300 pieces we are honestly the wrong supplier — a loom set-up and a dye lot cost the same whether you order 100 towels or 1,000, so the per-piece price stops making sense for you. At that size a local wholesaler will serve you better, and we would rather tell you that than waste your week.
2 free pcs per spec — you pay courier only. Courier from Kerala to most countries runs $35–$60 via DHL or FedEx and arrives in 7–14 days. We recommend asking for two GSM weights side by side — most buyers change their mind about weight once they hold both. Sample cost is credited back against your first bulk order.
30% advance, 70% against B/L copy — so 70% of your money is still with you when the goods leave the port. You get photos of the actual production run before the balance is due. You can also appoint a third-party inspector (SGS, Bureau Veritas or Intertek, roughly $300–$500 for a single inspection) to check the goods at our factory before you release the balance; we will schedule it and give them access. If a shipment does not match the approved sample, we remake or credit it.
In most countries, no — not for commercial quantities of ordinary cotton textiles. In the US, UK, EU, UAE, Australia and Canada, a business tax or VAT registration number is normally all that is required, and your freight forwarder or customs broker files the entry for you. Some markets do require an importer registration (Saudi Arabia and Egypt among them). Tell us your country and we will tell you plainly what you need before you commit any money.
FOB means the price to get goods loaded onto the ship at Cochin port — freight, duty and local delivery are on top. As a rough guide, sea freight adds $0.15–$0.45 per towel on a shared container and less on a full one; import duty is typically 6–12% depending on your country. We quote CIF (freight included) or DDP (everything included, delivered to your address) on request, so you can compare one final number instead of guessing. Our landed-cost calculator does the arithmetic for you.
Yes, absolutely. Certification is not a hoop we make you jump through — it is simply how we already manufacture. Every piece is made under OEKO-TEX Standard 100 whether you ask for the certificate or not, and it costs you nothing extra. If you do not need the paperwork, do not ask for it and nothing about your order or price changes. Buyers who supply hotel groups or EU retailers usually want the documents; an Airbnb host or a salon owner almost never does.
30–45 days for production, plus shipping. Sea freight is 10–16 days to the Gulf, 22–30 days to Europe and the UK, 28–38 days to the US east coast, and 18–25 days to Australia. Air freight cuts that to 3–5 days but costs roughly 6–8× more per kilo, so it is worth it for samples and rarely worth it for bulk. Plan on about 8–10 weeks door to door for a first sea shipment.
Fair question, and one you should ask everyone. We are a manufacturer in Kerala, India — you can video-call the floor during Indian working hours with no notice, and we will walk the looms and the dye house for you. We will also give you our IEC (Import Export Code) and GST registration to verify independently. A trading company will usually decline a live unscheduled video call, which is the cheapest test you can run on any supplier.
Yes. Woven labels, printed care labels, embroidered logos, custom packaging and retail barcodes are all standard. Logo embroidery adds about $0.30–$0.60 per piece; a custom woven label adds about $0.06–$0.12. Private-label MOQ is 2,000 pieces per SKU rather than 500, because the label and packaging themselves carry a minimum run.
Tell us where to send them and what specification you want. We dispatch within 2 business days and confirm the courier cost before anything ships.
