With ProModal®, as with every Lenzing fiber, you can feel Nature. The fiber blend is extracted from wood and numerous ecological aspects are taken into consideration. Lenzing fibers are per se an environmental alternative to cotton.
During their production they have a much lower impact on the human environment than cotton. Thus the yield of ProModal is approximately six times higher than that of cotton and the water consumption is 10-20 times lower.
When it comes to ProModal, Lenzing works with the yarn manufacturers Karsu Tekstil from Turkey and the Samil Spinning from Korea. The market is currently being developed in collaboration with these two customers.
Together these two companies have established a ProModal club structure which comprises a total of 35 ProModal fabric manufacturers. In this way brands and retailers can be offered a wide range of fabrics.
