TENCEL™ Lyocell

TENCEL™ Lyocell is a branded type of lyocell fiber developed and manufactured by the Austrian company Lenzing AG. Lyocell is a general term for a type of cellulosic fiber, and TENCEL™ is a specific brand within that category.

TENCEL™ Lyocell is made from sustainably sourced wood pulp, typically derived from eucalyptus trees or other certified and controlled sources. The wood pulp undergoes a process called solvent spinning, where it is dissolved in a non-toxic solvent and then extruded through fine holes to form fibers. These fibers are then processed and spun into yarns for use in various textile applications.
