Eurofoam and TENCEL® guarantee a pleasant night’s sleep

Eurofoam is developing a new mattress foam with integrated TENCEL® in powder form.
Finely ground TENCEL® can be incorporated when producing mattress foam. Tests have shown that the concentration of mites declines in mattresses with TENCEL® powder. This can be explained by the good moisture absorption of TENCEL®. Therefore, mold and bacteria do not stand a chance. Their growth is truly nipped in the bud since the moisture is immediately transported to the inside of the TENCEL® powder. No film of moisture (which can serve as the basis for the growth of mold and bacteria) forms. The leading-edge mattress foam, cellpur, is made by Eurofoam. Lenzing and Eurofoam will present it together at Interzum, held in Cologne.

Japan Air Line ideally equipped with Lenzing FR®

The Japanese airline JAL has selected covers of Lenzing FR® for their “Business Class Flights”.
The advantage compared to other fibers lies in the permanent flame-resistance, the excellent moisture management and unparalleled comfort. Thus Lenzing FR® fulfills the airline’s strict safety requirements and in addition it offers passengers protection on board.

TENCEL® is an ideal blending partner for textiles of cotton

Due to its range of characteristics, TENCEL® offers a host of improvements for classical textiles of combed and carded cotton.
The admixture of 30% TENCEL® is already enough to improve the quality of yarns and fabrics of cotton. The fiber fineness, staple length and purity of the fiber are all advantages, making TENCEL® an ideal blending partner. TENCEL®/cotton blends are ideally suited for the production of fabrics such as denim, chinos, shirts and blouses. Lenzing offers TENCEL® MICRO for very high-quality textiles.

Comfortable fashion for wheelchair-users

Wheelchair-users have special clothing demands because the textiles they wear must be uncomplicated and comfortable when sitting.
Trousers of TENCEL® are extremely soft and crease less than cotton trousers. The feeling of well-being increases due to the rapid removal of moisture from the skin. Additionally, TENCEL®’s smooth surface structure prevents skin irritation. For more on TENCEL® fashion for wheelchair-users, go to: www.rollimoden.de
