Care & Repair
Tencel® Lyocell
Tencel® Lyocell is really easy to take care of. But if you want to extend the life of your garments, check out our care guide.
Made using sustainable FSC wood pulp
Produced in a closed-loop system
Smooth and wrinkle-resistant
Produced under the brand name Tencel®, Lyocell is made from cellulose which comes from the dissolved pulp of fast-growing trees such as eucalyptus and beech. With Tencel’s manufacturing process, which uses trees from certified sustainable plantations, 99.5% of all chemicals are recycled in a closed system. For this reason, Tencel® has received the EU’s European Award for the Environment.
But it’s not just an environmentally sound material. Tencel® Lyocell also has fantastic functional properties. Like cotton, it’s soft and smooth but it’s far better at transporting moisture – absorbing 50% more water than cotton. It drapes well and resists wrinkles too. All this makes it ideal for clothing designed for the trail.
Tencel® Lyocell isn’t the only sustainable material we work with. In fact, we value EnvironmentalStandards just as much as functionality and durability. Find out how we work with sustainable materials here.
