Tencel, also known as lyocell, is a sustainable cellulosic fiber derived from wood pulp, it is manufactured by the Austrian textile company <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tencel.com\/transparency\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lenzing AG and is produced using a closed-loop process<\/a>, which means that the solvents used during manufacturing are recycled. Here are some key points about Tencel:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Eco-Friendly:<\/strong> Tencel is considered environmentally friendly because it comes from renewable resources (Eucalyptus Beech, Spruce, Birch, Aspen, Southern Pine and even Maple trees) and has a low environmental impact.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Soft and Breathable:<\/strong> Tencel fibers are incredibly soft, making them comfortable to wear against the skin. They also have excellent moisture-wicking properties, keeping you cool and dry.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Naturally Antibacterial<\/strong>: Tencel is naturally antibacterial making it much less likely to attract odor with long periods of wear making it great for travelling.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Hypoallergenic<\/strong>: Gentle on your skin and unlikely to cause allergic reactions as with many synthetic materials <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Non Toxic or Irritating<\/strong>: The Tencel Lyocell we use OEKO TEX Standard 100 Tested for harmful substances<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Biodegradable:<\/strong> Tencel fibers break down naturally in the environment, reducing waste.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/publicmyth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Cute-Sports-Bras-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Tencel Lyocell and organic cotton joggers and sports bra\" class=\"wp-image-11559\" srcset=\"https:\/\/publicmyth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Cute-Sports-Bras-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/publicmyth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Cute-Sports-Bras-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/publicmyth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Cute-Sports-Bras-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/publicmyth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Cute-Sports-Bras-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.publicmyth.com\/products\/empress-v-sport-bra\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sports Bra<\/a> &amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.publicmyth.com\/products\/eco-pocket-jogger-3-0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Joggers<\/a> made from Tencel Lyocell &amp; Organic Cotton<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tencel Strengths<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Softness:<\/strong> Tencel feels luxurious and silky, making it ideal for clothing items like dresses, shirts, and pants.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Breathability:<\/strong> Tencel is highly breathable, allowing air circulation and preventing overheating.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Moisture Absorption:<\/strong> Tencel can absorb moisture efficiently, keeping you dry even during hot and humid weather.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Antibacterial &amp; odour resistant making it great for travel and active wear <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Gentle on Skin:<\/strong> Its smooth surface minimizes skin irritation and free of toxic chemicals, making it suitable for sensitive skin.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sustainable:<\/strong> Tencel production uses less water and energy compared to other fibers.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tencel Weaknesses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Cost<\/strong>: Tencel Lyocell can be more expensive than conventional cotton due to its sustainable production process.<a href=\"Cost: Tencel Lyocell can be more expensive than conventional cotton due to its sustainable production process.\"><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Shrinkage:<\/strong> Tencel can shrink slightly if exposed to high heat during washing or drying.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Limited Color Range<\/strong>: While it takes dye well, the color range may not be as extensive as other fabrics.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/publicmyth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Organic-Clothing-Senstive-Skin-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"Organic Clothing for sensitive skin\" class=\"wp-image-11816\" srcset=\"https:\/\/publicmyth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Organic-Clothing-Senstive-Skin-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/publicmyth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Organic-Clothing-Senstive-Skin-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/publicmyth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Organic-Clothing-Senstive-Skin-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/publicmyth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Organic-Clothing-Senstive-Skin.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/shop.publicmyth.com\/products\/ribbed-crop-tank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rib Tank Top<\/a> &amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.publicmyth.com\/products\/ribbed-running-short\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Running Short<\/a> made from Tencel Modal <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is Tencel Modal?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tencel Modal is another Tencel fiber, also manufactured by Lenzing AG.

Let&#8217;s explore the benefits and drawbacks of combining these two Eco-Friendly fabrics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Advantages:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Sustainability Synergy:<\/strong> Both Tencel and organic cotton are eco-friendly fibers. By blending them, you create a fabric that aligns with sustainable fashion practices. Tencel comes from renewable trees, while organic cotton is grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Softness and Comfort:<\/strong> Tencel adds a luxurious softness to the fabric, enhancing the overall comfort of the garment. Organic cotton also contributes to a gentle feel against the skin.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Breathability:<\/strong> The combination of Tencel and organic cotton results in a breathable fabric. It allows air circulation, making it suitable for warm weather or active wear.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Moisture Management:<\/strong> Tencel efficiently absorbs moisture, keeping you dry. When blended with organic cotton, it enhances the fabric&#8217;s moisture-wicking properties.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Reduced Wrinkling:<\/strong> Tencel&#8217;s smooth surface minimizes wrinkles, and when combined with organic cotton, the fabric maintains a neat appearance.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Disadvantages:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Cost:<\/strong> Tencel and organic cotton are premium materials, so a blend of the two can be more expensive than other fabrics. However, the investment in sustainability and comfort may outweigh the cost.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Shrinkage Risk:<\/strong> Tencel can shrink if exposed to high heat during washing or drying. Organic cotton is also prone to shrinkage. Proper care is essential to prevent this issue.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Maintenance &amp; Care of Tencel Lyocell Clothing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>How to keep your Tencel clothing in great condition:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Washing:<\/strong> Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Drying:<\/strong> Hang dry in the shade to prevent shrinkage and increase the lifespan of the garments.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ironing:<\/strong> Use a low-temperature setting to avoid damaging the fabric.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Storage:<\/strong> Hang or neatly fold Tencel garments to prevent wrinkles.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In summary, a Tencel Lyocell and organic cotton blend offers a harmonious combination of softness, breathability, and sustainability. Consider these factors when choosing clothing made from this blend, and enjoy the best of both worlds! ??<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Wear Tencel Lyocell Clothing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/publicmyth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Black-V-Neck-Romper-eco-friendly-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Black V Neck Romper\" class=\"wp-image-10208\" srcset=\"https:\/\/publicmyth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Black-V-Neck-Romper-eco-friendly-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/publicmyth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Black-V-Neck-Romper-eco-friendly-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/publicmyth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Black-V-Neck-Romper-eco-friendly-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/publicmyth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Black-V-Neck-Romper-eco-friendly.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/shop.publicmyth.com\/products\/eco-v-neck-romper\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Eco V Neck Romper<\/a> for workout or lounge.
