Laguna Fabrics, TENCEL™ and creora® spandex Unite for the Natural Selection Collection

by Underlines

Laguna Fabrics, a leading circular knitting mill, partners with Lenzing AG, manufacturer of TENCEL™ branded lyocell fibres and Hyosung, manufacturer of creora® spandex, to launch the Natural Selection Collection. This sophisticated fabric collection made with TENCEL™ Lyocell and creora’s bio-based spandex fibre, prioritizes style, functionality, and environmental responsibility.

Addressing the need for certified eco-friendly fibres in fashion, Laguna Fabrics leverages TENCEL™ Lyocell and creora® bio-based spandex to create a collection that excels in performance and sustainability.

 The Natural Selection Collection includes refined single jerseys, ribs, and interlocks suitable for contemporary women’s collections, including premium tops, first-layer shapewear, and form-fitting dresses.

Our commitment to low-impact fibres has been ongoing since 2001, with over 70% of our products crafted from natural materials. By partnering with Hyosung, we successfully incorporate its creora® bio-based spandex made with 30% renewable resources. This alternative stretch fibre performs exceptionally well, addressing the challenge of implementing sustainable options.”

 David Roshan, Laguna Fabrics

Creora® bio-based spandex replaces 30% of petroleum-based resources with bio-based materials sourced from industrial field corn. Recent third-party life cycle assessments reveal a 20% reduction in carbon footprint compared to regular spandex production.

 We are delighted to partner with Laguna Fabrics on this new curated collection. Consumers are demanding high-performance, comfortable fabrics backed-up with genuine sustainability benefits – which this collaboration between Laguna, Hyosung and Lenzing delivers.”

Simon Whitmarsh-Knight, Hyosung’s Global Marketing Director – Textiles

TENCEL™ Lyocell fibres are made from sustainably sourced wood and produced through a unique closed loop production process which recovers and reuses the solvents used, minimizing the environmental impact of production.

The Natural Selection Collection exemplifies how important collaboration is in achieving and creating sustainable solutions for our industry. Lenzing and the TENCEL™ brand are committed to working with supply chain partners to develop innovations and new fabrications that advance sustainability while meeting the performance needs of consumers.”
