What is it?
Tencel and Modal are strong sustainable fibres made from tree pulp.
How does it work?
Tencel and Modal are biodegradable and come from tree pulp; a sustainable resource that can be grown quickly without the need for irrigation, pesticides or fertilizers.
The trees used to make these fibres are sustainably grown and turned into fibre in a 'closed loop' process that uses up to twenty times less water than cotton production.
What’s it good for?
Tencel and Modal are extremely strong and can be used to improve the durability of a garment without the need for man-made fibres like polyester. The fibres are gentle on your skin and has the ability to absorb sweat 50% quicker than cotton, helping to regulate your body temperature during sport. Garments made from these fabrics can also stay odour-free for multiple wears thanks to their natural antibacterial qualities, reducing the overall energy and water consumption of the garment from repeated washing. This makes them great fabrics for active and outdoor clothing.
