Lyocell is a environmentally friendly viscose fiber , also known as Tencel™. It is a natural chemical fiber obtained from cellulose and is also known as a near-natural fiber. During production, amine oxides dissolve the cellulose into a clear, viscous spinning solution. The solvents used can be recovered. Lyocell is biodegradable and is particularly characterized by its pleasant wearing properties: The material is breathable, as absorbent as Cotton , soft as silk and cooling like linen.
At LANIUS we use Tencel™ from the Austrian company Lenzing due to its environmentally friendly production and good wearing properties for tops, dresses and skirts.
