Consumers look for softness in knitwear above all else. Softness builds trust,encourages comfort,and leaves a positive lasting impression. When compared to all the other sustainable fibers available on the market today,none will offer the same amount of natural softness as Tencel Lyocell. Since our inception over 20 years ago,Ohyeah Textile has specialized in eco-friendly knitted fabrics. One thing we've learned from working with Tencel Lyocell in large quantities:this material provides an unprecedented level of natural softness that elevates all types of knit fabrics – from thin summer tees to thicker winter layers.
Why Tencel Lyocell Feels Different from Other Fibers
The uniqueness of the softness of Tencel Lyocell fibers comes down to the fiber's structure. Tencel Lyocell fibers have a smooth, round shape with no sharp edges when observed under a microscope,while common synthetic fibers,standard cotton fibers and other types of rayons are irregular,leading to irritation,friction,and potential for scratching sensitive skin (such as on infants). This fiber type completely avoids this issue. As a result,Tencel Lyocell fibers are smooth as they pass across the skin and do not pull or scratch. Tencel Lyocell knit fibers are a natural and excellent choice for loungewear,basics and infant clothing. At Ohyeah Textile,we offer numerous types of Tencel Lyocell blends,from bamboo lyocell and standard cotton lyocell knits to organic cotton blends,as well as custom pure Tencel Lyocell products. Our products provide a consistently high level of quality, and we take great care to prevent even slight abrasions to maintain the soft texture that consumers love.
Softness That Survives Repeated Washing
The majority of fabrics that boast a certain level of softness start to wear and roughen after only a few washes. The fiber itself break down,and a fuzzy exterior that scratches against the skin develops during subsequent uses. The surface structure of the Tencel Lyocell fiber resists pilling,so it remains soft throughout the garment's life. We at Ohyeah Textile know this. To ensure this amazing natural softness lasts throughout its lifetime, we use over one hundred circular knitting machines along with twenty dyeing vats. We also apply appropriate tensions during processing to avoid compromising the fiber structure. Our quality control team ensures that all shipments have shrinkage below 5% and overall color fastness of levels 4 to 5. When all these factors are combined, the resulting knit fabric is of an exceptional and soft quality that consumers will appreciate. Brands want a product their customers love and will continuously purchase. They will get that loyalty with a high quality fabric that simply lasts.
Breathable Softness for Year Round Comfort
There is no value in a soft fiber if that fabric does not breathe. The key strength of the Tencel Lyocell fiber is its ability to absorb moisture and release it rapidly into the surrounding environment. As such,there will be no uncomfortable clinging feel from this fiber,and consumers will feel dry,no matter the situation they are in. This feature is particularly useful for knitted fabrics. Due to the loop structure,knit fabrics are naturally breathable. Combining a breathable fabric with the inherent moisture wicking qualities of the Tencel Lyocell fiber ensures a fabric that not only feels soft to the touch but remains dry to the skin. Each one of our 200-ton monthly productions consists of all types of Tencel Lyocell knits, ranging from very fine sheer knits,to heavier French terry material. All of our knit fabric constructions have been carefully designed to optimize the combination of softness,and breathability to ensure an extremely comfortable fabric for your customers. Whether your customer is sleeping,traveling,or working from home,a Tencel Lyocell fabric will make the experience naturally comfortable and serene.
A Gentle Choice for Sensitive Skin and Baby Wear
Choosing the right fibers for soft knits is not enough on its own. Achieving the amazing level of softness consistently across a 200-ton production run,however,requires dedication. This level of production is not achieved by merely cutting costs or using a standard manufacturing process. It is the result of intensive effort,precision machinery,and over twenty years of experience. At Ohyeah Textile,we use over one hundred knitting machines to turn yarn into fabric on demand. Each piece of equipment is meticulously cared for to optimize performance and minimize damage to the fiber. Our quality assurance department tests fabrics thoroughly to determine whether there is any deficiency in softness. They check for things like tensile strength,pilling rate,shrinkage,and overall fabric appearance. Only after we've confirmed that our fabrics pass all the standard tests,is the Tencel Lyocell knit presented to you. We know that it's this commitment that provides natural softness with a long lasting quality for the end product.Brands that focus on providing products that their customers will adore will benefit from the amazing feel and performance of Tencel Lyocell knits from Ohyeah Textile.
