Lyocell Fiber Market Size, Demand, Manufactures and Growth Analysis by 2028
Industry Overview of Lyocell Fiber Market: Lyocell is a type of man-made fiber derived from the cellulose of bleached wood pulp. Popularly known as the third-generation cellulose fiber, lyocell was first developed in 1972 by the process of dry jet-wet spinning. Lyocell fibers are strong but soft, highly absorbent, wrinkle-resistant and capable of replicating an array of textures like leather,…

“Bamboo is antifungal”
Because it’s rayon
“Eucalyptus fabric is cooling!”
Yeah, because it’s rayon
“We make clothing called seacell out of seaweed!”
Yeah I looked on your website it’s made by the lyocell process, which means-
-wait for it-
It’s fucking rayon!!
Listen. There is a list of actual plant fibers that are directly made into fabric: cotton, linen, ramie, some hemp. I’m sure I’m missing a couple.
But if you’re wondering “huh how did they turn that plant material into fabric,” 99% of the time? It’s RAYON.
All rayon is made by putting plant material in chemical soup, dissolving out everything but the cellulose, and turning the cellulose into filaments/fibers.
The source of the cellulose has zero effect on the eventual fabric.
Rayon made from bamboo or eucalyptus or seaweed is not any better than rayon from any other sources.
Don’t let companies mislead you!

MATERIAL RESEARCH
Looking into regenerative/recycled/recyclable/environmentally-friendly materials.
Repreve: Recycled PET bottle fabric
“We transform plastic bottles into certifiable, traceable, high-performance yarn … REPREVE® is made with less carbon, using non-toxic products. It reduces global warming potential compared to conventional virgin polyester. We empower brands and consumers to take a positive step … Our collaboration with Oerlikon Barmag on the eAFK EvoCooler technology has reduced the energy required to texture our yarn. REPREVE® SmartDye™ and WaterWise™, both proprietary innovations, have reduced the amount of water and energy used in the dye process.” - https://repreve.com/discover-repreve
Econyl: Recycled fishing net and nylon fabric
“Fishing nets, together with other nylon waste, are regenerated into ECONYL® nylon. … As well as being a solution on waste, ECONYL® regenerated nylon is also better when it comes to climate change. It reduces the global warming impact of nylon by up to 90% compared with the material from oil.” Also recycled into the material: old carpets, pre-consumer waste, and textile scraps. - https://www.econyl.com/the-process/
Agraloop Biofibre: created from agriculture/food waste
“The Agraloop™ refines natural fibers derived from agricultural crops into textile-grade fiber called Agraloop™ BioFibre™.  A NEW Natural Fibermindfully sourced for circularity. With our specialized wet processing technique, cellulose fiber from stems and leaves are purified into soft fiber bundles ready to spin into yarns. The Agraloop processes left-overs from various food and medicine crops including, oilseed hemp/flax, CBD hemp, banana, and pineapple.” - https://circularsystems.com/agraloop
Pinayarn: Fabric made from pineapple waste
“Piñayarn® by Ananas Anam is an innovative and low impact yarn, made from waste pineapple leaves. Piñayarn offers a 100% plant-based, recyclable, and biodegradable textile solution for a world otherwise dominated by petroleum-based textiles and resource intense virgin fibres.” - https://www.ananas-anam.com/pinayarn/
Recycled Cotton
“Recycled cotton can be generally defined as converting cotton fabric into cotton fiber that can be reused in textile products. Recycled cotton is also commonly referred to as regenerated cotton, reclaimed cotton, or shoddy. Recycled content includes recycled raw material, as well as used, reconditioned, and re-manufactured components.
Pre-consumer: includes scraps created by yarn and fabric by-products
Post-consumer: includes garments, upholstery, towels, household items to be repurposed
The largest volume of recycled cotton sources is produced through pre-consumer waste, such as cutting scraps. Post-consumer waste is more difficult to sort through due to various color shades, fabric blends, and it is generally a more labor-intensive process.” - https://cottonworks.com/en/topics/sustainability/cotton-sustainability/recycled-cotton/
Mylium: Mycelium-based leather
“At Mylium we treasure fungi that grow in a thread-like network, called mycelium. Mycelium grows by extending and branching its tips in search of nutrients. The threads hook strongly together and are pressed to form a uniform sheet.” -https://www.mylium.nl/technology/
Hemp fabric
“One of the most eco-friendly aspects of hemp is that it uses very little water, about 1/20th of the amount of water it takes to grow cotton and can often be rain-fed. Hemp can grow in almost all soil conditions, and unlike cotton (which depletes the soil of nutrients) hemp’s deep-reaching roots preserve the topsoil and subsoil. Hemp plants grow densely as well, leaving no room for weeds and competing plants and is less vulnerable to insects, which means little to no use of pesticides.” Hemp fabric is also biodegradable, and depending on where it is sourced from- largely produced by sustainable practices. - https://wearethefabricstore.com/au/sustainability/gots-organic-hemp
Lyocell and Modal: fibres made from sustainable wood
“TENCEL™ Lyocell and Modal fibers help to maintain the environmental balance by being integrated into nature’s cycle. The fibers originate from the renewable raw material wood, created by photosynthesis. The certified biobased fibers are manufactured using an environmentally responsible production process. The fibers are certified as [100%] compostable and biodegradable, and thus can fully revert back to nature.” - https://www.tencel.com/b2b/sustainability
An interesting article on the incredible role of mycelium and waste management...

started a new knitting project based off some pictures I found on an obscure russian website lol It’s made with a bunch of short rows to make the shaping for the yoke part. I might make a post with the pictures explaining it (but I don’t speak russian so it’s my best guess). I don’t know why my brain glomped onto this style of yoke shaping but here we are.
Pattern: something I’m making myself, I’ll let you know if it works out in the end lol
Yarn: K+C Pearl, it’s 70% lyocell and 30% viscose. I might be the outlier but I LOVE knitting with plant fibers !!!

Cool, dry comfort all summer long ☀️⁠ ⁠ 🌱 TENCEL™ Lyocell cellulose fibers absorb moisture even more efficiently than cotton. This supports the body’s natural thermal regulating mechanism, keeping your skin feeling cool and dry throughout the day and night, and provides a less favorable environment for bacterial growth.⁠ ⁠ 🌱 BOTANIC ORIGIN⁠ TENCEL™ Lyocell fibers are derived from sustainable wood sources – sustainably managed forests. ⁠ ⁠ 🌱 SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTION⁠ Fibers are extracted via an environmentally-friendly closed loop production process, which transforms wood pulp into cellulosic fibers with high resource efficiency. This solvent-spinning process recycles process water and reuses the bio-solvent at a recovery rate of more than 99%. ⁠ ⁠ 🌱 BIODEGRADABLE⁠ All TENCEL™ standard Lyocell fibers are biodegradable and compostable under industrial, home, soil, fresh water and marine conditions, meaning at end of garment life, they can fully revert back to nature.⁠ ⁠ #TencelUnderwear #TencelLingerie #TencelPanties #TencelBra #SustainableLingerie #SustainableUnderwear #EthicallyMade #MadeInPortugal https://instagr.am/p/CvK2jBzMUoG/
