Lyocell
Lyocell is a type of fiber made from the pulp of wood cellulose, primarily sourced from sustainably managed forests. It is produced through a closed-loop process, which means that the solvents used in its production are recycled, minimizing environmental impact. This makes Lyocell a more eco-friendly alternative to traditional fibers like cotton or polyester.
The resulting fabric is soft, breathable, and biodegradable, making it comfortable for clothing and home textiles. Lyocell is often marketed under the brand name Tencel, which is known for its luxurious feel and moisture-wicking properties. It is also resistant to wrinkles and has a natural sheen.
