ArthCrafted has always believed in weaving luxury and sustainability, hand-in-hand, to provide quality that doesn’t compromise the environment. Our spotlight today falls on Tencel, a fabric that has not only set a gold standard in eco-friendly materials but also promises a cascade of benefits that standard fabrics simply can't match.
A Journey from Tree to Sheet
TENCEL™, a brand name for Lyocell, starts its life as wood from eucalyptus trees. The journey from robust tree to silky, soft, and sumptuous fabric is both fascinating and a testament to innovative sustainable practices in the textile industry.
-
Harvesting the Eucalyptus: These trees are primarily sourced from sustainably managed farms where the use of pesticides is negligible, and the impact on old-growth forests is null.
-
Transforming Wood into Pulp: The harvested wood is converted into pulp through a process that employs organic solvents. Remarkably, about 99% of the solvent is reused in a closed-loop process, minimising waste and pollutants.
-
Spinning into Fibers: The pulp is then dried and transformed into fibers, which are washed, refined, and eventually spun into the yarn.
-
Weaving Magic: The yarn is woven into the TENCEL™ fabric that eventually graces your bed, providing an uninterrupted, serene, and environmentally responsible slumber.
