2 Slow to dry
3 Resists static electricity build-up
4 Wrinkles easily
5 Can withstand heat, detergents, and bleach
6 Durable, and unique in the fact it can actually improve with time
What is Tencil? [read more]
100% Tencil is a fibre made from wood pulp of trees grown and replaced on specialized tree farms. Unlike most cellulosic fabrics, Tencil is produced using recyclable, earth-friendly solvents. As a naturally derived fibre, Tencil is also biodegradable.
