Lenzing’s sustainable Tencel fibre turns 30

The flagship textile brand, Tencel, of Austrian fibre producer Lenzing Group is celebrating its 30th anniversary in 2022. Started as “Lenzing Lyocell” in the 1990s, the fibre producer acquired the Tencel brand from Corsadi BV (part of the international financial group CVC) for an undisclosed sum in 2004 and combined it with its lyocell business while retaining the brand name Tencel.
