Tencel isn’t just a material, it’s a lifestyle of natural comfort.

What Is Tencel All About? A Lifestyle Choice.

Tencel is a brand name for a set of fibres called lyocell and modal, the material is also known as Tencel™, Tencel Lyocell or Micro Tencel. It is manufactured from wood pulp and most predominantly the cellulose of sustainably harvested eucalyptus trees. They are of great environmental value as they use water efficiently and its sustainable growth is super conducive, making the tree grow faster without need of irrigation or any genetic manipulation. 

Benefits of Tencel: Why Go For Tencel?

Tencel material is all about: 

1. Breathability

Tencel is naturally breathable which enables the air to flow in and out of the material and prevent any heat retention.

2. Durability & Absorbency

Tencel is more durable in comparison to other available materials. It is resistant to shrinking and is super absorbent so won’t lose its shape and softness even post wash.

3. Sustainability and Natural Material

Eucalyptus’ wood pulp is the most predominant ingredient used in manufacturing the sheets, making them natural and super eco-loving.

Best Friends: Tencel and Sustainability

It is prepared by dissolving wood pulp and involves another drying process like spinning. So, not only does the process make Tencel super absorbent, breathable, comforting, and soft in comparison with other materials, it also makes Tencel very sustainable and eco-loving.

Such a solvent spinning process recycles the processed water and reuses the solvent at a recovery rate of fairly more than 99%, making it way more waste neutral and therefore much more sustainable than other materials.

Fabric made of Tencel has incredible wrinkle resistance, holds dye properly, and manages moisture well which helps in temperature control and regulation. Such features make it perfectly mushy for bedding sheets and Heavenluxe is all about providing luxury and comfort.
