“Absorbent hygiene products are an indispensable part of many consumers’ lives and are relied upon daily. As these are essential items, it is important that they should offer maximum comfort and relief to the user,” Lenzing stated in a press release. “This is demonstrated by the new Veocel branded lyocell fibres which have the capacity to provide a high level of comfort, softness and dryness, when applied in these types of products.”

“Increasingly, consumer expectations are extending beyond functional needs, to focus on natural materials and ingredient transparency. However, consumers should never have to compromise between functionality, comfort and sustainability, and it is critical that such intimate products provide both – as the new Veocel branded lyocell fibres can offer. While most hydrophobic fibres are fossil-based fibres, dry technology by Lenzing allows cellulosic Veocel branded lyocell fibres to achieve similar liquid-controlling properties built on a biodegradable, botanic-derived material,” according to the company. “The fibres are also soft to touch and gentle on the skin, thus beneficial for applications that have direct contact with skin, such as in femcare and period care products, adult incontinence products and baby diapers.”

The Veocel brand is continually expanding its capacities and innovations for wood-based specialty fibres as a means to reduce the industry’s reliance on fossil-based materials in personal care products.”

According to the company, a recent Stifel survey indicates that 83 per cent of consumers believe it is important for companies to act sustainably. This drive comes from the rising number of eco-conscious consumers, who are acutely aware of the environmental impact of disposable products and are searching for products which are better for the environment.

“Not only are the hydrophobic Veocel branded lyocell fibres with dry technology environmentally friendly, but they also provide great comfort and a feeling of dryness for the wearer, which comes from enabling strategic fluid distribution. This is a particularly useful trait in absorbent hygiene products as it helps to manage bodily fluids, keeping the surface dry and the touch soft even after encountering liquid. Overall, this contributes to a comfortable personal care experience for the wearer and allows them to feel as if their skin is next to nature,” the company concluded.
