Sustainability and supply chain
This garment was made from Tencel ™ , a 100% biodegradable and recyclable material.
THE RAW MATERIAL, WOOD
The Tencel™ fibers used in this garment are sourced from wood pulp from PEFC and FSC® certified forests (for sustainable forest management). The supply chain originates primarily from eucalyptus plantations and other fast-growing tree species within the European Union. The raw material is then delivered to Lenzing – the manufacturer of Tencel™ – in accordance with the strictest standards. Tencel™ is Lenzing's registered trademark for marketing lyocell fiber according to their own social and environmental standards.

THE SUPPLIER OF TENCEL ™
Avani uses only premium Tencel™ fibers manufactured by the Lenzing AG Group. The Lenzing Group is a specialist supplier in the development of sustainable fiber-based materials. For over 80 years, Lenzing's solutions have contributed to protecting the planet.
Lenzing's Tencel™ fibers are produced using a closed-loop transformation process that employs only a natural solvent and water. This contributes to the circular economy within the textile industry, as 99% of the solvent and 100% of the water are recycled and reused to produce new Tencel™ fibers. Resource and energy use are minimized while maximizing recycling and reuse. Furthermore, Tencel™ fibers use 20 times less water than cotton fibers for a yield 10 times greater.

THE FABRIC SUPPLIER
Once the pulp is transformed into fibers, the yarn is then woven and dyed by Meet Milk (DK) to create fabric. In just a few years, Meet Milk has become a recognized and important supplier in the production of responsible Tencel™-based fabrics. Thanks to its partnership with the Lenzing Group, Meet Milk provides Avani with the highest quality Tencel™ fiber fabrics.
The fabric that makes up this garment is OEKO-TEX® 100 certified, a label which guarantees that at each stage of processing, it does not contain nickel and other products toxic to humans and the environment.
