Austrian Lenzing launches plant-based ecological fiber derived from wood
At the China International Textile Fabrics and Accessories Expo held in Shanghai recently, the plant ecological fiber derived from wood introduced to the Chinese market by the Austrian Lenzing Group attracted Chinese textile peers.
Headquartered in Austria, the Lenzing Group is mainly engaged in fiber research and development, production and setting standards for fibers. At this exhibition, Lenzing launched new plant ecological fibers, Lenzing Modal and Lenzing Tencel, which are made from beech and eucalyptus trees respectively. Lenzing’s entire production process is integrated into the concept of plant ecology. The wood is first made into pulp and then extracted into fiber. The entire optimized production process can make the best use of everything.
Lenzing’s plant ecological fiber can grow naturally and does not require artificial irrigation or genetic modification. It does not require excessive use of water and land, nor does it require the use of pesticides. The eucalyptus trees used to produce Tencel and the fiber required to produce one T-shirt require an area of 6 square meters to grow cotton, while 6 square meters of land planted with eucalyptus trees can produce Tencel for 10 T-shirts. Lenzing fibers use less than one percent of the water used by cotton. Lenzing Modal can also extract various by-products during the production process, such as acetic acid, saccharin and sodium sulfate used in glass production. Lenzing fiber is also an ecological recycling process. It comes from nature and returns to nature after biodegradation. Planting a large number of beech and eucalyptus trees can also beautify the environment and improve the soil.
The fiber made from wood provided by Lenzing Group also has the characteristics of good air permeability, comfortable wearing and high strength.
