It’s commonly used as a substitute for cotton or silk.&nbsp;</p> <p>Lyocell was originally developed by American Enka in 1972, but only recently did it gain popularity in the 20<sup>th</sup> century. With American Enka, lyocell fabric only made it through the pilot phase of development before it was abandoned.&nbsp;</p> <p>It wasn’t until the 1980s when a British company called Courtaulds Fibres created a new fabric called Tencel based on lyocell research. The terms Tencel and lyocell can be used interchangeably now because they are chemically identical.&nbsp;</p> <p>Its production process does involve some synthetic chemicals, but they are recycled during the circuit and they don’t generate by-products.&nbsp;</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="how-is-lyocell-made"><span class="ez-toc-section" id="how_is_lyocell_made"></span>how is lyocell made?<span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h3> <ol> <li>Wood is broken down into chips and loaded into a vat of chemical digesters.

It’s smooth fibers are an excellent choice for people with sensitive skin and it’s soft to the touch. It’s also more resistant to pilling than cotton.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>In terms of the environment, lyocell is a good fabric in comparison to conventional cotton and polyester. The production process uses less water and energy than alternative fabrics, like cotton.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>One of the main producers of lyocel is <a href="https://www.tencel.com/fiber-story" data-wpel-link="external" rel="nofollow external noopener noreferrer">TENCEL™ Lyocell</a>: Their fibers are produced in a closed loop process which recovers water and 99.8% of the solvent, which transforms wood pulp into cellulosic fibers with high resource efficiency and low environmental impact.&nbsp;</p> <p>Additionally, TENCEL™ lyocell is biodegradable and compostable, if it is not combined with any polyester, elastane or nylon fabrics/elements.&nbsp;</p> <p>However, you should be mindful that not all lyocell is made from the same materials. Most lyocell is made from eucalyptus trees, whereas others are made from bamboo, oak, birch, or other types of wood.&nbsp;</p> <p>Eucalyptus and bamboo are great choices, as they grow fast, require minimal inputs, and sequester carbon as they grow. Additionally, unlike conventional cotton, eucalyptus and bamboo don’t require irrigation or pesticides.&nbsp;</p> <p>If you can, look for lyocell made from wood sourced from responsibly managed forests, like the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification. &nbsp;</p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><picture decoding="async" class="wp-image-33155" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt data-jpibfi-post-url="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/what-is-lyocell-fabric/" data-jpibfi-post-title="What’s Lyocell Fabric?

But chemicals sprayed on the plant will mix with water runoff. This leads to groundwater contamination. To give you an idea of how water-hungry cotton is, it takes&nbsp;<a href="https://www.waterfootprint.org/resources/interactive-tools/product-gallery/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow external" data-wpel-link="external">2,500 liters</a> of water&nbsp;to produce one t-shirt.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <p>Cotton is also one of the&nbsp;<a href="https://rodaleinstitute.org/blog/9-ways-you-may-not-realize-cotton-is-in-your-food/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow external" data-wpel-link="external">top four</a>&nbsp;genetically modified crops in the world. It’s&nbsp;considered the world’s “dirtiest crop” because it requires heavy amounts of toxic pesticides. These pesticides have poisoned thousands of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.pan-uk.org/cotton/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow external" data-wpel-link="external">cotton farmers</a>, as well as pollute the environment.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <p>On top of this, cotton needs more than five times the land that eucalyptus trees. That&#8217;s a lot of space that could be utilized in other, less water-intensive ways.</p> <p>This being said, if you own any cotton garments, don’t toss them out in favor of replacing them with lyocell products. The most sustainable thing you can do is use what you have (and at that point, the resources have already been used up). &nbsp;</p> <p>If you’re thinking about getting a new item, choose to support brands that utilize lyocell over conventional cotton. However, choosing <a href="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/what-is-organic-cotton/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">organic cotton</a> over conventional cotton is also a much better choice, as it’s grown without pesticides and with less water.&nbsp;</p> <p>Modal is also another fabric you should consider using, as it is similar to lyocell. Here’s everything you need to know about <a href="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/modal-fabric/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">modal fabric</a> and how it’s sustainable.&nbsp;</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="which-brands-use-lyocell-fabric"><span class="ez-toc-section" id="which_brands_use_lyocell_fabric"></span>which brands use lyocell fabric?&nbsp;<span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h2> <p>Several brands have started to see the potential in lyocell fabric. Here are the top sustainable brands that are utilizing the fabric. </p> <div class="wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex"> <div class="wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow"> <figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><picture decoding="async" class="wp-image-33159" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt data-jpibfi-post-url="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/what-is-lyocell-fabric/" data-jpibfi-post-title="What’s Lyocell Fabric?

It’s commonly used as a substitute for cotton or silk.&nbsp;</p> <p>Lyocell was originally developed by American Enka in 1972, but only recently did it gain popularity in the 20<sup>th</sup> century. With American Enka, lyocell fabric only made it through the pilot phase of development before it was abandoned.&nbsp;</p> <p>It wasn’t until the 1980s when a British company called Courtaulds Fibres created a new fabric called Tencel based on lyocell research. The terms Tencel and lyocell can be used interchangeably now because they are chemically identical.&nbsp;</p> <p>Its production process does involve some synthetic chemicals, but they are recycled during the circuit and they don’t generate by-products.&nbsp;</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="how-is-lyocell-made"><span class="ez-toc-section" id="how_is_lyocell_made"></span>how is lyocell made?<span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h3> <ol> <li>Wood is broken down into chips and loaded into a vat of chemical digesters.

It’s smooth fibers are an excellent choice for people with sensitive skin and it’s soft to the touch. It’s also more resistant to pilling than cotton.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>In terms of the environment, lyocell is a good fabric in comparison to conventional cotton and polyester. The production process uses less water and energy than alternative fabrics, like cotton.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>One of the main producers of lyocel is <a href="https://www.tencel.com/fiber-story" data-wpel-link="external" rel="nofollow external noopener noreferrer">TENCEL™ Lyocell</a>: Their fibers are produced in a closed loop process which recovers water and 99.8% of the solvent, which transforms wood pulp into cellulosic fibers with high resource efficiency and low environmental impact.&nbsp;</p> <p>Additionally, TENCEL™ lyocell is biodegradable and compostable, if it is not combined with any polyester, elastane or nylon fabrics/elements.&nbsp;</p> <p>However, you should be mindful that not all lyocell is made from the same materials. Most lyocell is made from eucalyptus trees, whereas others are made from bamboo, oak, birch, or other types of wood.&nbsp;</p> <p>Eucalyptus and bamboo are great choices, as they grow fast, require minimal inputs, and sequester carbon as they grow. Additionally, unlike conventional cotton, eucalyptus and bamboo don’t require irrigation or pesticides.&nbsp;</p> <p>If you can, look for lyocell made from wood sourced from responsibly managed forests, like the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification. &nbsp;</p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><picture decoding="async" class="wp-image-33155" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt data-jpibfi-post-url="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/what-is-lyocell-fabric/" data-jpibfi-post-title="What’s Lyocell Fabric?

But chemicals sprayed on the plant will mix with water runoff. This leads to groundwater contamination. To give you an idea of how water-hungry cotton is, it takes&nbsp;<a href="https://www.waterfootprint.org/resources/interactive-tools/product-gallery/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow external" data-wpel-link="external">2,500 liters</a> of water&nbsp;to produce one t-shirt.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <p>Cotton is also one of the&nbsp;<a href="https://rodaleinstitute.org/blog/9-ways-you-may-not-realize-cotton-is-in-your-food/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow external" data-wpel-link="external">top four</a>&nbsp;genetically modified crops in the world. It’s&nbsp;considered the world’s “dirtiest crop” because it requires heavy amounts of toxic pesticides. These pesticides have poisoned thousands of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.pan-uk.org/cotton/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow external" data-wpel-link="external">cotton farmers</a>, as well as pollute the environment.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <p>On top of this, cotton needs more than five times the land that eucalyptus trees. That&#8217;s a lot of space that could be utilized in other, less water-intensive ways.</p> <p>This being said, if you own any cotton garments, don’t toss them out in favor of replacing them with lyocell products. The most sustainable thing you can do is use what you have (and at that point, the resources have already been used up). &nbsp;</p> <p>If you’re thinking about getting a new item, choose to support brands that utilize lyocell over conventional cotton. However, choosing <a href="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/what-is-organic-cotton/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">organic cotton</a> over conventional cotton is also a much better choice, as it’s grown without pesticides and with less water.&nbsp;</p> <p>Modal is also another fabric you should consider using, as it is similar to lyocell. Here’s everything you need to know about <a href="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/modal-fabric/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">modal fabric</a> and how it’s sustainable.&nbsp;</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="which-brands-use-lyocell-fabric"><span class="ez-toc-section" id="which_brands_use_lyocell_fabric"></span>which brands use lyocell fabric?&nbsp;<span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h2> <p>Several brands have started to see the potential in lyocell fabric.

It’s commonly used as a substitute for cotton or silk.&nbsp;</p> <p>Lyocell was originally developed by American Enka in 1972, but only recently did it gain popularity in the 20<sup>th</sup> century. With American Enka, lyocell fabric only made it through the pilot phase of development before it was abandoned.&nbsp;</p> <p>It wasn’t until the 1980s when a British company called Courtaulds Fibres created a new fabric called Tencel based on lyocell research. The terms Tencel and lyocell can be used interchangeably now because they are chemically identical.&nbsp;</p> <p>Its production process does involve some synthetic chemicals, but they are recycled during the circuit and they don’t generate by-products.&nbsp;</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="how-is-lyocell-made"><span class="ez-toc-section" id="how_is_lyocell_made"></span>how is lyocell made?<span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h3> <ol> <li>Wood is broken down into chips and loaded into a vat of chemical digesters.

It’s smooth fibers are an excellent choice for people with sensitive skin and it’s soft to the touch. It’s also more resistant to pilling than cotton.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>In terms of the environment, lyocell is a good fabric in comparison to conventional cotton and polyester. The production process uses less water and energy than alternative fabrics, like cotton.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>One of the main producers of lyocel is <a href="https://www.tencel.com/fiber-story" data-wpel-link="external" rel="nofollow external noopener noreferrer">TENCEL™ Lyocell</a>: Their fibers are produced in a closed loop process which recovers water and 99.8% of the solvent, which transforms wood pulp into cellulosic fibers with high resource efficiency and low environmental impact.&nbsp;</p> <p>Additionally, TENCEL™ lyocell is biodegradable and compostable, if it is not combined with any polyester, elastane or nylon fabrics/elements.&nbsp;</p> <p>However, you should be mindful that not all lyocell is made from the same materials. Most lyocell is made from eucalyptus trees, whereas others are made from bamboo, oak, birch, or other types of wood.&nbsp;</p> <p>Eucalyptus and bamboo are great choices, as they grow fast, require minimal inputs, and sequester carbon as they grow. Additionally, unlike conventional cotton, eucalyptus and bamboo don’t require irrigation or pesticides.&nbsp;</p> <p>If you can, look for lyocell made from wood sourced from responsibly managed forests, like the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification. &nbsp;</p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><picture decoding="async" class="wp-image-33155" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt data-jpibfi-post-url="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/what-is-lyocell-fabric/" data-jpibfi-post-title="What’s Lyocell Fabric?

But chemicals sprayed on the plant will mix with water runoff. This leads to groundwater contamination. To give you an idea of how water-hungry cotton is, it takes&nbsp;<a href="https://www.waterfootprint.org/resources/interactive-tools/product-gallery/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow external" data-wpel-link="external">2,500 liters</a> of water&nbsp;to produce one t-shirt.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <p>Cotton is also one of the&nbsp;<a href="https://rodaleinstitute.org/blog/9-ways-you-may-not-realize-cotton-is-in-your-food/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow external" data-wpel-link="external">top four</a>&nbsp;genetically modified crops in the world. It’s&nbsp;considered the world’s “dirtiest crop” because it requires heavy amounts of toxic pesticides. These pesticides have poisoned thousands of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.pan-uk.org/cotton/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow external" data-wpel-link="external">cotton farmers</a>, as well as pollute the environment.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <p>On top of this, cotton needs more than five times the land that eucalyptus trees. That&#8217;s a lot of space that could be utilized in other, less water-intensive ways.</p> <p>This being said, if you own any cotton garments, don’t toss them out in favor of replacing them with lyocell products. The most sustainable thing you can do is use what you have (and at that point, the resources have already been used up). &nbsp;</p> <p>If you’re thinking about getting a new item, choose to support brands that utilize lyocell over conventional cotton. However, choosing <a href="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/what-is-organic-cotton/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">organic cotton</a> over conventional cotton is also a much better choice, as it’s grown without pesticides and with less water.&nbsp;</p> <p>Modal is also another fabric you should consider using, as it is similar to lyocell. Here’s everything you need to know about <a href="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/modal-fabric/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">modal fabric</a> and how it’s sustainable.&nbsp;</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="which-brands-use-lyocell-fabric"><span class="ez-toc-section" id="which_brands_use_lyocell_fabric"></span>which brands use lyocell fabric?&nbsp;<span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h2> <p>Several brands have started to see the potential in lyocell fabric.

It’s commonly used as a substitute for cotton or silk.&nbsp;</p> <p>Lyocell was originally developed by American Enka in 1972, but only recently did it gain popularity in the 20<sup>th</sup> century. With American Enka, lyocell fabric only made it through the pilot phase of development before it was abandoned.&nbsp;</p> <p>It wasn’t until the 1980s when a British company called Courtaulds Fibres created a new fabric called Tencel based on lyocell research. The terms Tencel and lyocell can be used interchangeably now because they are chemically identical.&nbsp;</p> <p>Its production process does involve some synthetic chemicals, but they are recycled during the circuit and they don’t generate by-products.&nbsp;</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="how-is-lyocell-made"><span class="ez-toc-section" id="how_is_lyocell_made"></span>how is lyocell made?<span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h3> <ol> <li>Wood is broken down into chips and loaded into a vat of chemical digesters.

It’s smooth fibers are an excellent choice for people with sensitive skin and it’s soft to the touch. It’s also more resistant to pilling than cotton.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>In terms of the environment, lyocell is a good fabric in comparison to conventional cotton and polyester. The production process uses less water and energy than alternative fabrics, like cotton.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>One of the main producers of lyocel is <a href="https://www.tencel.com/fiber-story" data-wpel-link="external" rel="nofollow external noopener noreferrer">TENCEL™ Lyocell</a>: Their fibers are produced in a closed loop process which recovers water and 99.8% of the solvent, which transforms wood pulp into cellulosic fibers with high resource efficiency and low environmental impact.&nbsp;</p> <p>Additionally, TENCEL™ lyocell is biodegradable and compostable, if it is not combined with any polyester, elastane or nylon fabrics/elements.&nbsp;</p> <p>However, you should be mindful that not all lyocell is made from the same materials. Most lyocell is made from eucalyptus trees, whereas others are made from bamboo, oak, birch, or other types of wood.&nbsp;</p> <p>Eucalyptus and bamboo are great choices, as they grow fast, require minimal inputs, and sequester carbon as they grow. Additionally, unlike conventional cotton, eucalyptus and bamboo don’t require irrigation or pesticides.&nbsp;</p> <p>If you can, look for lyocell made from wood sourced from responsibly managed forests, like the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification. &nbsp;</p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><picture decoding="async" class="wp-image-33155" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt data-jpibfi-post-url="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/what-is-lyocell-fabric/" data-jpibfi-post-title="What’s Lyocell Fabric?

But chemicals sprayed on the plant will mix with water runoff. This leads to groundwater contamination. To give you an idea of how water-hungry cotton is, it takes&nbsp;<a href="https://www.waterfootprint.org/resources/interactive-tools/product-gallery/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow external" data-wpel-link="external">2,500 liters</a> of water&nbsp;to produce one t-shirt.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <p>Cotton is also one of the&nbsp;<a href="https://rodaleinstitute.org/blog/9-ways-you-may-not-realize-cotton-is-in-your-food/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow external" data-wpel-link="external">top four</a>&nbsp;genetically modified crops in the world. It’s&nbsp;considered the world’s “dirtiest crop” because it requires heavy amounts of toxic pesticides. These pesticides have poisoned thousands of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.pan-uk.org/cotton/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow external" data-wpel-link="external">cotton farmers</a>, as well as pollute the environment.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <p>On top of this, cotton needs more than five times the land that eucalyptus trees. That&#8217;s a lot of space that could be utilized in other, less water-intensive ways.</p> <p>This being said, if you own any cotton garments, don’t toss them out in favor of replacing them with lyocell products. The most sustainable thing you can do is use what you have (and at that point, the resources have already been used up). &nbsp;</p> <p>If you’re thinking about getting a new item, choose to support brands that utilize lyocell over conventional cotton. However, choosing <a href="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/what-is-organic-cotton/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">organic cotton</a> over conventional cotton is also a much better choice, as it’s grown without pesticides and with less water.&nbsp;</p> <p>Modal is also another fabric you should consider using, as it is similar to lyocell. Here’s everything you need to know about <a href="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/modal-fabric/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">modal fabric</a> and how it’s sustainable.&nbsp;</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="which-brands-use-lyocell-fabric"><span class="ez-toc-section" id="which_brands_use_lyocell_fabric"></span>which brands use lyocell fabric?&nbsp;<span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h2> <p>Several brands have started to see the potential in lyocell fabric.

It’s commonly used as a substitute for cotton or silk.&nbsp;</p> <p>Lyocell was originally developed by American Enka in 1972, but only recently did it gain popularity in the 20<sup>th</sup> century. With American Enka, lyocell fabric only made it through the pilot phase of development before it was abandoned.&nbsp;</p> <p>It wasn’t until the 1980s when a British company called Courtaulds Fibres created a new fabric called Tencel based on lyocell research. The terms Tencel and lyocell can be used interchangeably now because they are chemically identical.&nbsp;</p> <p>Its production process does involve some synthetic chemicals, but they are recycled during the circuit and they don’t generate by-products.&nbsp;</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="how-is-lyocell-made"><span class="ez-toc-section" id="how_is_lyocell_made"></span>how is lyocell made?<span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h3> <ol> <li>Wood is broken down into chips and loaded into a vat of chemical digesters.

It’s smooth fibers are an excellent choice for people with sensitive skin and it’s soft to the touch. It’s also more resistant to pilling than cotton.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>In terms of the environment, lyocell is a good fabric in comparison to conventional cotton and polyester. The production process uses less water and energy than alternative fabrics, like cotton.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>One of the main producers of lyocel is <a href="https://www.tencel.com/fiber-story" data-wpel-link="external" rel="nofollow external noopener noreferrer">TENCEL™ Lyocell</a>: Their fibers are produced in a closed loop process which recovers water and 99.8% of the solvent, which transforms wood pulp into cellulosic fibers with high resource efficiency and low environmental impact.&nbsp;</p> <p>Additionally, TENCEL™ lyocell is biodegradable and compostable, if it is not combined with any polyester, elastane or nylon fabrics/elements.&nbsp;</p> <p>However, you should be mindful that not all lyocell is made from the same materials. Most lyocell is made from eucalyptus trees, whereas others are made from bamboo, oak, birch, or other types of wood.&nbsp;</p> <p>Eucalyptus and bamboo are great choices, as they grow fast, require minimal inputs, and sequester carbon as they grow. Additionally, unlike conventional cotton, eucalyptus and bamboo don’t require irrigation or pesticides.&nbsp;</p> <p>If you can, look for lyocell made from wood sourced from responsibly managed forests, like the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification. &nbsp;</p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><picture decoding="async" class="wp-image-33155" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt data-jpibfi-post-url="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/what-is-lyocell-fabric/" data-jpibfi-post-title="What’s Lyocell Fabric?

But chemicals sprayed on the plant will mix with water runoff. This leads to groundwater contamination. To give you an idea of how water-hungry cotton is, it takes&nbsp;<a href="https://www.waterfootprint.org/resources/interactive-tools/product-gallery/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow external" data-wpel-link="external">2,500 liters</a> of water&nbsp;to produce one t-shirt.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <p>Cotton is also one of the&nbsp;<a href="https://rodaleinstitute.org/blog/9-ways-you-may-not-realize-cotton-is-in-your-food/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow external" data-wpel-link="external">top four</a>&nbsp;genetically modified crops in the world. It’s&nbsp;considered the world’s “dirtiest crop” because it requires heavy amounts of toxic pesticides. These pesticides have poisoned thousands of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.pan-uk.org/cotton/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow external" data-wpel-link="external">cotton farmers</a>, as well as pollute the environment.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <p>On top of this, cotton needs more than five times the land that eucalyptus trees. That&#8217;s a lot of space that could be utilized in other, less water-intensive ways.</p> <p>This being said, if you own any cotton garments, don’t toss them out in favor of replacing them with lyocell products. The most sustainable thing you can do is use what you have (and at that point, the resources have already been used up). &nbsp;</p> <p>If you’re thinking about getting a new item, choose to support brands that utilize lyocell over conventional cotton. However, choosing <a href="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/what-is-organic-cotton/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">organic cotton</a> over conventional cotton is also a much better choice, as it’s grown without pesticides and with less water.&nbsp;</p> <p>Modal is also another fabric you should consider using, as it is similar to lyocell. Here’s everything you need to know about <a href="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/modal-fabric/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">modal fabric</a> and how it’s sustainable.&nbsp;</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="which-brands-use-lyocell-fabric"><span class="ez-toc-section" id="which_brands_use_lyocell_fabric"></span>which brands use lyocell fabric?&nbsp;<span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h2> <p>Several brands have started to see the potential in lyocell fabric.

It’s commonly used as a substitute for cotton or silk.&nbsp;</p> <p>Lyocell was originally developed by American Enka in 1972, but only recently did it gain popularity in the 20<sup>th</sup> century. With American Enka, lyocell fabric only made it through the pilot phase of development before it was abandoned.&nbsp;</p> <p>It wasn’t until the 1980s when a British company called Courtaulds Fibres created a new fabric called Tencel based on lyocell research. The terms Tencel and lyocell can be used interchangeably now because they are chemically identical.&nbsp;</p> <p>Its production process does involve some synthetic chemicals, but they are recycled during the circuit and they don’t generate by-products.&nbsp;</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="how-is-lyocell-made"><span class="ez-toc-section" id="how_is_lyocell_made"></span>how is lyocell made?<span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h3> <ol> <li>Wood is broken down into chips and loaded into a vat of chemical digesters.

It’s smooth fibers are an excellent choice for people with sensitive skin and it’s soft to the touch. It’s also more resistant to pilling than cotton.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>In terms of the environment, lyocell is a good fabric in comparison to conventional cotton and polyester. The production process uses less water and energy than alternative fabrics, like cotton.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>One of the main producers of lyocel is <a href="https://www.tencel.com/fiber-story" data-wpel-link="external" rel="nofollow external noopener noreferrer">TENCEL™ Lyocell</a>: Their fibers are produced in a closed loop process which recovers water and 99.8% of the solvent, which transforms wood pulp into cellulosic fibers with high resource efficiency and low environmental impact.&nbsp;</p> <p>Additionally, TENCEL™ lyocell is biodegradable and compostable, if it is not combined with any polyester, elastane or nylon fabrics/elements.&nbsp;</p> <p>However, you should be mindful that not all lyocell is made from the same materials. Most lyocell is made from eucalyptus trees, whereas others are made from bamboo, oak, birch, or other types of wood.&nbsp;</p> <p>Eucalyptus and bamboo are great choices, as they grow fast, require minimal inputs, and sequester carbon as they grow. Additionally, unlike conventional cotton, eucalyptus and bamboo don’t require irrigation or pesticides.&nbsp;</p> <p>If you can, look for lyocell made from wood sourced from responsibly managed forests, like the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification. &nbsp;</p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><picture decoding="async" class="wp-image-33155" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt data-jpibfi-post-url="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/what-is-lyocell-fabric/" data-jpibfi-post-title="What’s Lyocell Fabric?

But chemicals sprayed on the plant will mix with water runoff. This leads to groundwater contamination. To give you an idea of how water-hungry cotton is, it takes&nbsp;<a href="https://www.waterfootprint.org/resources/interactive-tools/product-gallery/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow external" data-wpel-link="external">2,500 liters</a> of water&nbsp;to produce one t-shirt.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <p>Cotton is also one of the&nbsp;<a href="https://rodaleinstitute.org/blog/9-ways-you-may-not-realize-cotton-is-in-your-food/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow external" data-wpel-link="external">top four</a>&nbsp;genetically modified crops in the world. It’s&nbsp;considered the world’s “dirtiest crop” because it requires heavy amounts of toxic pesticides. These pesticides have poisoned thousands of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.pan-uk.org/cotton/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow external" data-wpel-link="external">cotton farmers</a>, as well as pollute the environment.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <p>On top of this, cotton needs more than five times the land that eucalyptus trees. That&#8217;s a lot of space that could be utilized in other, less water-intensive ways.</p> <p>This being said, if you own any cotton garments, don’t toss them out in favor of replacing them with lyocell products. The most sustainable thing you can do is use what you have (and at that point, the resources have already been used up). &nbsp;</p> <p>If you’re thinking about getting a new item, choose to support brands that utilize lyocell over conventional cotton. However, choosing <a href="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/what-is-organic-cotton/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">organic cotton</a> over conventional cotton is also a much better choice, as it’s grown without pesticides and with less water.&nbsp;</p> <p>Modal is also another fabric you should consider using, as it is similar to lyocell. Here’s everything you need to know about <a href="https://www.goingzerowaste.com/blog/modal-fabric/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">modal fabric</a> and how it’s sustainable.&nbsp;</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="which-brands-use-lyocell-fabric"><span class="ez-toc-section" id="which_brands_use_lyocell_fabric"></span>which brands use lyocell fabric?&nbsp;<span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h2> <p>Several brands have started to see the potential in lyocell fabric.
