Lyocell is a regenerated cellulose fiber made from the pulp of wood chips. The making of lyocell starts from harvesting wood, mostly from eucalyptus trees due to their fast growth, but it can also derive from oak, birch, spruce, pine, and beech. The wood is broken down into chips and dissolved by an organic solvent called amine oxide to create a soggy pulp, the mixture is then processed through spinnerets to create fibers that in turn are spun into yarns. With a silky, wet handfeel and lustrous sheen, the fiber lends a softness, drapability and moisture absorbency.

We work with Lenzing, an Austrian fiber producer. Lenzing source wood from exclusively FSC® (Forest Stewardship Council) and PEFC™ (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) certified forests to ensure responsible forest management and avoid sourcing from endangered or illegally logged areas. Lenzing also recovers and recycles more than 99 percent of the organic solvent. 67% of Lenzings energy consumption in 2024 was from renewable energy, including a combination bioenergy and renewable electricity sources.
