Lyocell is the third and most advanced generation of regenerated cellulose fiber. In 2026, it is recognized as a premium, high-performance alternative to viscose and modal due to its superior strength and environmentally friendly production
Lyocell uses a non-toxic organic solvent (NMMO) instead of the harsh sodium hydroxide and toxic carbon disulfide used in viscose and modal production. It has a near-perfect closed-loop system reclaiming 99.8% of solvents and water making it one of the best sustainable fabrics in the modern era.
