Lyocell

Lyocell represents one of the most significant advancements in sustainable textile production for consumer goods. What makes Lyocell particularly remarkable is its closed-loop manufacturing process that recovers and reuses 99.5% of the solvent used to transform wood pulp into fiber, dramatically reducing environmental impact compared to conventional rayon production. The resulting material offers an exceptional combination of breathability, moisture management (absorbing 50% more moisture than cotton), natural temperature regulation, and biodegradability. In consumer goods, Lyocell appears in premium apparel, bedding, activewear, and even technical applications. Its natural drape, silky feel, and ability to blend seamlessly with other fibers make it versatile across product categories. As brands and consumers increasingly prioritize environmentally responsible materials, Lyocell—often marketed under the brand name TENCEL™—has become synonymous with eco-friendly luxury, bridging the gap between natural fiber performance and responsible production in everyday consumer textiles.
