Reusable Paper Towels - 100% Organic Cotton, 12 or 24 Pack

It's time to ditch the single-use paper towels for this organic, reusable alternative. Every day, over 51,000 trees are cut down to support America's paper towel habit, and it's completely unnecessary! This swap saves trees, precious water resources, and helps save you money.

Made with GOTS certified organic cotton, our 1-ply Reusable Paper Towels are perfect for cleaning messes, drying hands, or any time you're in need of a paper towel.

Once dirty, simply wash with your normal laundry and reuse for years. Plus, the cotton material naturally clings together, making it super easy to re-roll onto the cardboard paper towel tube.

Choose from: 12-pack folded or 24-pack pre-rolled; Available in Earth Tones, Lemons, Greys, or White.

Size: 10" x 10". The perfect size to fit your hands!

Material: Oeko-Tex Standard certified, colored with low impact dyes; GOTS certified organic cotton flannel; 1-ply

Tips:

  • They become more absorbent with each wash
  • Rinsing and wringing prior to wiping may help towels absorb more

Care: Machine wash in warm or cold water and with like colors. Air dry or tumble dry low. Minor shrinkage may occur.

End of Life: Reuse as a rag for cleaning; or you can cut it up and compost

Reusable Paper Towels FAQ's

Everything You Need to Know About Our Reusable Paper Towels.

What are reusable paper towels or unpaper towels?

Reusable paper towels, also sometimes known as unpaper towels, are washable, durable cloth alternatives to single-use paper towels. They’re designed to clean up spills, wipe surfaces, and handle all your kitchen and household tasks without creating all the waste that traditional single use paper towels do.

How do you use reusable paper towels?

Use them just like traditional paper towels! Clean up messes, wipe counters, and dry hands. After use, toss them in the laundry for cleaning and reuse over and over again.

What are reusable paper towels made of?

They are typically made of absorbent materials like cotton, bamboo, or flannel, which are soft, durable, and designed to handle multiple uses. Our reusable paper towels are crafted from GOTS-certified organic cotton and meet the Oeko-Tex Standard, ensuring they are free from harmful substances and safe for everyday use. 

Are reusable paper towels as absorbent as regular paper towels?

Absolutely! Many reusable paper towels are equally, if not more, absorbent than traditional paper towels, especially when made from premium materials like cotton or bamboo. In fact, their absorbency often improves after multiple washes.

How do you clean reusable paper towels?

Simply toss them in the washing machine with your regular laundry. To prevent shrinking, consider using cold water. Use mild detergent, avoid fabric softeners, and air-dry or tumble dry on low to extend their lifespan.

How long do reusable paper towels last?

With proper care, reusable paper towels can last for years, making them a cost-effective and sustainable alternative to single-use paper towels.

How many reusable paper towels do I need?

This depends on your household size and cleaning habits, but a set of 12-24 towels is typically enough for most families to rotate through regular use and washing.

Can reusable paper towels handle tough messes like grease or oil?

Yes, reusable paper towels can handle tough messes like grease, but you may need to pre-treat them before washing to remove stubborn stains.

Are reusable paper towels environmentally friendly?

Absolutely! They reduce waste, save trees, and eliminate the need for single-use paper towels, making them a sustainable choice for eco-conscious households.

Where can I buy reusable paper towels?

You can find high-quality reusable paper towels (unpaper towels) at ZeroWasteStore.com, where sustainability and functionality go hand in hand.

Not absorbent but useful otherwise

I really loved the idea of reusable "paper towel", and got a rainbow colored 12 pack. A bit disappointed that they are not very absorbent. I washed them all initially but still not very absorbent. On closer look, it looks like thin flannel material, which is known not to be absorbent. What's the use of them if they have to be washed many times before they become absorbent, as the response to one of the review says? Also, suggesting that we rewind them on used paper tube to mimic ordinary paper towel is sort of silly, I think. I sewed a short length of cotton basting string on a corner so they can be hang from a hook. I have a stack of cotton rags for cleaning anyway, but these "paper towel" alternatives are good for food prep. I hated using paper towels for cleaning mushroom caps (so wasteful), but I don't feel bad about using these. I use these as somewhere between kitchen towel and cleaning rag.

Towels started falling apart after using them once

Towels started falling apart after using them once. One had a hole and others already have the stitching coming off. Much too small to use to wipe up spills or the kitchen counter. Really useless. When I emailed to complain I was offered a 50% refund in store credit- not good enough.

Feels like we’re at a colorful restaurant!

Ordered the rainbow towels and I’m addicted to them. Like in the title, they feel a little fancy but are more fun because of the cute colors. Feels soft on the face and are easy to use without feeling bad about using them 😊

Work well as napkins

These are not as big as the previous reusable paper towels I purchased, but they still seem to work well as napkins and the colors are nice

Great Purchase!

My husband and I decided to make the switch and slowly integrate more zero-waste items into our new home. We purchased the Grey reusable paper towels and have loved the switch! My only suggestion would be to allow picking the colors in the bundle. Will likely purchase more of them since they work so nicely!

Conflicting Item Description

The description for these reusable paper towels says that they are made with GOTS certified 100% organic cotton flannel, which is the whole reason that I purchased them. However, when I received them, the packaging does not state anywhere on it that they are made with organic materials nor does it have the GOTS symbol/logo on it. I have attached a picture of the packaging on the reusable cotton rounds that I also purchased, which does have both the OEKO-TEX and the GOTS logo on it. Now I am not so sure these reusable paper towels are organic, which is, again, why I purchased them to begin with.

These are much more absorbent than paper towel and are easy to just throw in the wash with my other towels.

One of the best eco friendly purchases I’ve made!

I seriously love these things! We’ve been using them for about 6 months now and I can’t imagine ever going back. They are so easy to wash, reroll, and use again! We keep a small basket by the door for our dirty dish cloths and towels and just toss them in. We haven’t bought paper towels in months. I can’t think of any negatives.

We love using our Reusuable Earth Tones Towels!

I have a roll in the kitchen and one in the bathroom by the sink. We use the heck out of them! In the kitchen we grab one for drying hands, cleaning up spills, cleaning countertops, in place of napkins, I've washed dishes with them, light dusting, drying off my dogs wet paws on rainy days, cleaned my kitchen windows over the sink. In the bathroom it's kinda more of the same with drying hands and my guests think its pretty cool that they get to dry their hands on a fresh cloth each time plus the roll is so colorful with the Earth Tones! I keep a mesh cotton bag hanging on a command hook near by to put the used towels in so I can just throw them in the washer when I have a wash load ready. The mesh bag allows for air to flow thru it. We hardly use paper towels anymore unless it's for example, like something gross that you'd want or have to throw away. I can already tell these will last us a long time because I have washed them a lot already since we use them so much and they still look great, the stitching is good, and they have not lost any color. I got the Pre-Rolled 24 count and the roll they come on is thick and strong too so it will last thru many many cycles.

Not sure how to use them still???

These are of nice quality and I think they will last a long time, but I'm still not quite sure how to use them and for what as I worry about germs and bacteria building up.

Great but a tad thin

Great. A little thin for the price, so I have concerns about longevity, but I appreciate the lack of color option so that I can bleach stains out of them & use them as I do regular paper towels.

Overall good product

The Reusable Paper Towels are a great product that we have enjoyed adding to our minimal waste lifestyle. These clothes are a little smaller and a lot thinner than other reusable paper towels we have purchased from other reputable companies. That is the only reason for the four stars. I would love them even more if they were slightly bigger and thicker.
