TENCEL® knows no limits.

TENCEL® can be manipulated in a creative manner to produce a diversity of fabric aesthetics. Manipulating or controlling fibrillation produces a wide variety of fabrications, from suede-like or peach touch surfaces to a clean, smooth silky touch. Depending on the form of processing employed, very fine hairs form on the surface of the fiber to a greater or lesser extent.

TENCEL® with Multitouch.

Looks ranging from rugged denim in casual wear to silky peachskin surfaces are all possible in TENCEL® by manipulating the fibrils - very fine hairs found on the outer fibers. As with silk, this fibrillation is responsible for the pleasant and soft hand of TENCEL® fabrics.

* A non-fibrillating form of TENCEL® is also available (TENCEL® LF and TENCEL® A100)

Endless possibilities

TENCEL® has an extensive fiber portfolio which include filling and micro fiber variants.

TENCEL® FILL is the answer to the search for a natural filling material for bedding. The excellent moisture management guarantees a pleasant and dry climate as you sleep. Moreover, TENCEL® regulates the temperature when sleeping.

TENCEL® MICRO, a very fine and smooth fiber type, completes the portfolio. The silky feel of TENCEL® MICRO is a guarantee of outstanding comfort.

Variety rules

TENCEL® offers a variety of styling possibilities. Fabrics with natural elongation and recovery properties can be created using innovative techniques without having to use elastomeric fibers.

The high tenacity of TENCEL® in both a wet and dry state increases the dimensional stability of the end product. Even a small percentage of TENCEL® in the yarn or fabric makes textiles particularly durable.
