Specialist cellulosic fibre developer Lenzing has said a new product, Tencel Lyocell HV100, offers savings of 50% in water consumption and in carbon emissions compared to generic lyocell.

Furthermore, it said the new fibre “mirrors nature’s irregularities” and will open up for mills a new range of fabrics with “an authentic, irregular texture”, and with the aesthetic of nature’s “undefined rawness”.
It has achieved this by using cutting technology to create deliberate variations in fibre length, helping to produce the textured look typically associated with natural fibres.
