Lenzing and Hyosung collaborate for a new "green" collection

The project will showcase the sustainable benefits of each of the companies' leading brands: Lenzing's Tencel Modal and Hyosung's creora spandex.

"This Lenzing and Hyosung collaboration fits perfectly under the slogan Better Together," says Andreas Guertier, Head of Active & Outdoor Global Business Development for Lenzing AG. 

"The combination of natural softness, comfort and performance from Tencel and the power, fit and recovery of creora spandex allows us to offer customers new products for sports and leisure clothing with unrivaled sustainable credentials." 


"We are delighted to partner with Lenzing with this innovative fabric collection to deliver enhanced performance with products that use less energy & water and improved environmental care that today's informed consumers demand," says Simon Whitmarsh-Knight, EMEA Marketing Director - Performance Textiles Business, Hyosung.  "Collaboration is the way forward as the textile industry seeks creative and performance solutions throughout the value chain and to meet changing market dynamics. This is just the start of our cooperation with our friends at Lenzing!"

THE COLLECTION
The fabrics produced with Lenzing Ecovero and creora eco-soft are characterized by a softer touch, whiter whites, and low heat settable in order to reduce energy consumption. The garments in Tencel Modal and creora Power Fit offer great comfort thanks to improved shaping and compression, whilst the textiles in Tencel Modal and creora Black stand out for their breathability and softness in an intense black, which eliminates the grin-through effect.
