Numerous innovations have been integrated in the production of TENCEL™ Modal fibers, to make the process environmentally sound, with efficient use of natural resources and low emissions.
TENCEL™ Modal fibers are mainly manufactured from the renewable raw material beech wood, sourced from sustainable forests in Austria and neighboring countries.
All TENCEL™ standard Modal fibers are biodegradable and compostable under industrial, home, soil, fresh water and marine conditions, thus they can fully revert back to nature.
