Derived from certified and controlled wood sources, both Tencel Modal and Tencel Lyocell standard fibres are produced via responsible production processes and are compostable and biodegradable under industrial, home, soil and marine conditions.

Enabled by industry innovations, including Refibra technology, Eco Soft technology, Eco filament technology and Micro technology, textiles produced under the Tencel brand match high standards of sustainability and offer natural comfort to meet evolving consumer demand. Hence, Tencel fibres are found in the collections of many leading designers and renowned retailers.

Known for their natural comfort, Tencel Lyocell fibres are versatile and can be combined with a wide range of textile fibres such as cotton, polyester, acrylic, wool, and silk to enhance the aesthetics and functionality of fabrics. Unique physical properties of Tencel Lyocell fibres lead to their great strength, efficient moisture absorption and gentleness to skin.
