Lanjing Launches New Products To Help Enhance The Sustainability Of The Denim Industry

Lanjing group introduces tencetm modal fiber with indigo color technology, which will promote the sustainability of the denim industry. This new product uses the groundbreaking indigo color technology, using a one-step spinning stock coloring process to directly implant indigo dye into tenceltm modal fiber. Compared with the traditional process, this process has higher color fastness, less resource consumption and more sustainability. This innovative technology has won the EU eco label certification - Eco label certification represents a product with excellent environmental performance, and only products that meet strict quality standards throughout the life cycle can pass the certification.

Developing indigo color technology to enhance the sustainability of denim

As brands and supply chain partners pursue higher sustainability, the demand for environmentally friendly alternatives in the denim industry is growing rapidly. Lenzing has been working closely with these partners to eliminate environmentally harmful denim production processes through the use of plant materials and responsible production processes.

Denim is still an important market for Lanjing. Tencetm modal fiber with indigo color technology is launched to help the industry reduce the ecological footprint of denim fabrics and ready-made clothes. This new Austrian product is mainly beech wood from sustainably managed forests and is designated bio preferred by the United States Department of agriculture (USDA).

Florian heubrandner, vice president of Lanjing global textile business, said: "innovation is at the core of our work. From purchasing sustainable fibers to leading product features and production processes, we always make environmental protection our goal. Tencetm modal, which uses indigo color technology, has set a new benchmark for the denim industry in terms of indigo dyeing and sustainability by subverting traditional manufacturing processes and implementing innovative technologies and using renewable materials that are ecologically responsible. "

Adriano goldschmied, founder of house of gold, was one of the first partners to choose to use the new product. Goldschmied is recognized as the "godfather of denim" because of his foresight in the field of denim development. "Tencetm brand is leading a revolutionary change in the denim industry, and tenceltm modal has always been one of the preferred eco fibers in our product line," goldschmied said. We have worked with factories such as blue diamond and in the loop as well as machine manufacturer Shima Seiki to launch the "seed of joy" series of woven, circular and sweater knitted fabrics using tencetm modal with indigo color technology as raw material. "

Indigo color technology improves production standards and significantly reduces waste

Indigo color technology is based on the strong reputation of tencetm modal fiber and has many new advantages. Compared with the traditional indigo dyeing process, tencetm modal with indigo color technology has better color fastness in dry wet rubbing color fastness test. This fiber does not fade when washing at home, but can achieve the desired fading effect of denim products when washed with commercial laundry technology. Tencetm modal fiber with indigo color technology has excellent versatility and can be blended with a variety of fibers.

Compared with the traditional indigo dyeing process with high water consumption and energy consumption, this technology can bring significant advantages of water saving, power saving and chemical additive saving for indigo dyeing process, as well as less waste water and no heat consumption. In addition, the indigo dye specially formulated by DyStar, the dye manufacturer, ensures that tencetm modal with indigo color technology can pass the standard 100 certification of Oeko-Tex, ensuring that the aniline content is reduced to ultra-low levels. "This special indigo fuel is based on decades of experience in our indigo dye synthesis department in Germany," said g ü nther widler, technical director of DyStar's Denim division. Twenty five years ago, we invented the most environmentally friendly DyStar 40% pre reduced liquid indigo. DyStar? Indigo VAT 40% is a new technology for indigo dyes to meet the needs of sustainable manufacturing and production. "

In order to commercialize tencetm modal with indigo color technology, Lanjing has joined hands with leading supply chain partners including denim factories Candiani and cone denim.

Alberto Candiani, global general manager of Candiani, said: "sustainable development is at the core of our work, and we look forward to fruitful cooperation with Lenzing through the production of this environmentally friendly fiber. Tencetm modal, which uses indigo color technology, not only has its own sustainability, but also excels in expanding the performance and aesthetics of denim fabrics. "

Steve Maggard, President of cone denim, added: "Lanjing has been the industry leader in sustainable fibers for many years. With the increasing ecological awareness of consumers, jeans industry must continue to develop and innovate in intelligent materials to maintain efficient production and competitiveness. We are proud to work with tencetm and launch indigo color technology for modal fiber to promote the sustainability of denim production. "
