What is Tencel Fabric?

Tencel is a brand of fibers produced by Lenzing, an Austrian company. Tencel encompasses both Modal, a semi-synthetic rayon, and Lyocell, another type of rayon derived from wood cellulose. These versatile fibers are versatile and are often blended with other textiles such as cotton, wool, polyester and silk to enhance their functionality. Tencel fabric is soft, smooth, and has a lustrous appearance. It is highly absorbent, yet also resistant to wrinkles and static. Additionally, Tencel fabric is sustainable and environmentally friendly, as the production process uses non-toxic solvents and reduces water and energy usage compared to traditional cellulosic fibers like cotton. The eucalyptus trees used for Tencel production are grown using sustainable farming practices, and the process of turning the wood pulp into fiber results in a closed-loop system, meaning that almost all solvents and byproducts are reused or recycled. 

Tencel fabric is often used in a range of garments, including T-shirts, activewear, lingerie, and bedding, as well as dresses and pants. Due to its moisture-wicking properties and soft texture, Tencel is a popular choice for summer clothing.
