What Causes Orange Stains on Towels?
Orange stains on towels almost always come from one of five sources. Some are related to your water, while others come from everyday products you might not realize contain ingredients that stain.
1. Hard Water + Iron Content

Stains appear after washing or drying
Orange discoloration also appears in sinks or toilets
