Against Business as Usual: Renewing our commitment to a sustainable future with TENCEL(TM)
™
TENCEL™ Luxe partnered with RCGD to deliver an exceptional range of eco-couture gowns for the Oscars 2020. With high-end fashion historically lacking in naturally-sourced materials, this groundbreaking partnership is driving sustainable fashion to new heights. TENCEL™ Luxe is leading the charge for the future of eco-couture by meeting the increasing demand from high-end fashion brands for environmentally friendly fabric alternatives.
With sustainability always front of mind, Lenzing introduced TENCEL™ branded modal fibers with Eco Pure technology at Première Vision. Manufactured using a chlorine-free bleaching process, textiles made of these fibers tend to be softer and are perfect for making undergarments, loungewear, bedding and more.
At Transform Awards Europe, Lenzing and branding partner Siegel+Gale, were awarded "Best Brand Architecture Solution" and "Best Visual Identity from the Engineering and Manufacturing Sector". Lenzing was thrilled to receive the awards in recognition of the brand's transformation and collaborative efforts.
Lenzing is once again excited to partner with GUESS as they continue to grow their "Smart GUESS" collection made with TENCEL™ and LENZING™ ECOVERO™ branded fibers.

The TENCEL™ brand launched the "BEDifferent" project, during which they asked design students from European fashion academies to create a bedding collection that expressed the future of eco-friendly bed linen using TENCEL™ x REFIBRA™ fibers. Three winners were selected for their truly unique collections that brought the "BEDifferent" campaign to life.
Two Italian designers came up with a solution to revolutionize footwear sustainability. Their shoe brand, ACBC, designed a "Jogger" shoe that came in two parts, the skin and the sole, connected via a patented zipper system. The biodegradable "skin" of the shoe offers wearers multiple footwear design options and is made from TENCEL™ branded fibers for enhanced breathability and, above all, environmental sustainability.
