We would like to give you some information about "GSM", a term in the textile world. GSM is the abbreviation of "Gram per Square Meter" and is a unit that measures the weight of textile products. So, why is this weight important for our products and for you? How does it guide you in understanding the right quality in textiles and when shopping? We have compiled our notes with our production team for you.
What is GSM and Why is it Important in Textiles?
GSM stands for "Gram Per Square Meter". It is a unit of measurement used in textile products and indicates the weight of the product. So why is this important? For example, a 400 GSM towel means that 400 grams of fiber are placed in one square meter of the towel. This measurement provides us with important information about the texture, quality and performance of the product.
Scaling to Understand Quality
GSM is an important scale for understanding the quality of textile products. Low GSM values usually represent thin and light products, while high GSM values represent thick and heavy products. However, the ideal GSM value for each product varies. For example, a lower GSM value may be preferred when determining the quality of a bathrobe, but a higher GSM value may be more practical for a towel. Experiencing the GSM value you prefer will help you make the right choice. Different countries and cultures have different GSM standards. For example, while America prefers towels and bathrobes with heavier GSM, Europe prefers lower grammages.
