lyocell (Tencel).
about our fabrics
TENCEL Lyocell is a man-made cellulosic fibre, similar to viscose and modal. To make TENCEL Lyocell, wood pulp is dissolved in a solvent, and this mixture is pushed through a spinneret to form fibre strands in a solvent spinning process. The resulting fibres can then be spun into yarns, and later woven or knitted to make cloth.
TENCEL Lyocell fabric is extremely versatile. Depending on the length of the fibre chosen in production, varying thickness and texture can result. From a cottony feel to a silky one, the fabric adapts to a wide range of clothing types, from activewear to flowy dresses. casual wear and more.

Our Tencel/Lyocell CARE GUIDE
We believe that taking good care of our clothes is the most sustainable option, giving Garments a longer life.
- Machine wash your TENCEL garments on a gentle cycle using cold or cool water. Use a mild, more eco-friendly detergent to minimise environmental impact. Avoid harsh detergents and bleaches, as they can damage the fabric’s integrity.
- Drying, opt for air-drying whenever possible. If using a dryer, select a low heat setting to prevent excessive shrinkage or damage to the fibres.
- Use a low-heat iron setting for TENCEL clothing. If your iron has a steam setting, that can help remove wrinkles quickly and effectively.
