Tencel fabrics are loved for their softness, long-lasting comfort, and gentle touch on the skin!
You might have heard of closed-loop manufacturing, but what does it really mean? In simple terms, fabric manufacturing requires water and solvents. The water used to create this eco-friendly fabric is processed, cleaned, and reused repeatedly—like a closed loop. Pretty neat, right? 😉
So, what does this mean for you? First and foremost, Tencel fibers have fantastic color retention, so your #memade outfits will stay vibrant and beautiful over time.
Tencel fabrics come from nature: Lyocell is made from eucalyptus wood pulp, while Modal is made from Beech wood. The best part? Tencel can biodegrade and compost in both home and industrial settings. So even though we hope you won’t throw away your clothes, if they do leave your closet, they can naturally return to the earth in the right environment.
Plus, Tencel fibers are super absorbent—more than cotton—keeping you cool and dry. This makes it the perfect fabric for sewing base layers, underwear, and cosy pajamas. Don’t forget to check out our blog on sewing the perfect t-shirt.
