What Is Lyocell?

Lyocell is a botanic fibre made from renewable wood pulp, often sourced from sustainably managed eucalyptus forests.
It’s silky to the touch, naturally breathable, and 100% biodegradable making it one of the most responsible fibres in modern fashion and swimwear.

Why Lyocell Is Better

Traditional fabrics can be resource-heavy, using excessive water and harsh chemicals.
Lyocell is produced in a closed-loop system, where over 99% of water and solvents are recovered and reused. Minimising waste and environmental impact

This eco-friendly process reduces the footprint while maintaining premium softness, breathability, and durability. Qualities that make it ideal for crochet garments and resort wear by Akoia.
