Lyocell
Tencel
®
Lyocell, to give it its full name, is the most environmentally friendly man-
made cellulosic fibre available today. It is produced exclusively from the wood
pulp of Eucalyptus trees, which are sustainably grown on farms.
Tencel
®
Lyocell is fashionable, stylish and well-known for its outstanding
physical characteristics, being silky soft with a soft-flowing, luxurious drape. It
is perfectly smooth, has superb depth of colour, excellent moisture absorbency
and is naturally hygienic as it inhibits the growth of bacteria.
Tencel
®
Lyocell, the eco fibre, makes it possible to create truly environmentally
friendly products. Blending this with organically grown cotton, instead of
conventionally grown cotton, gives consumers the opportunity to experience
textiles made entirely of ecologically responsible fibres. 100% biodegradable.
Lenzing
®
Modal
The Softer Botanic Fibre. Modal is a man-made regenerated cellulosic fibre made
from sustainably cultivated forest plantations of beech wood trees transformed
into pulp and fibre through the unique Edelweiss technology, based on oxygen-
based chemistry. Lenzing Modal is the only sustainable Modal in the world today.
Lenzing Modal is the perfect fibre for fabrics worn next to the skin – for day and
night, active and relaxation activities. Same as for the Tencel, the botanic principle
means that more trees are planted that convert carbon dioxide and water into
wood and pure oxygen via photosynthesis. 100% biodegradable.
