Perma-Black Towels

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Black Towel Collection by Lenzing Saves Resources & Resists Color Loss

— July 5, 2024 — Eco
People are drawn to the timeless allure of black textiles and Lenzing's Black Towel Collection remedies their tendency to fade quickly and require frequent replacements. In this collection, Lenzing includes reinvented everyday personal care items in the form of makeup remover pads, makeup removal towels, gym towels, bath towels, hand towels, hair bonnets and beach towels that are made to be used, and washed, again and again.

TENCEL Modal in black fibers and LENZING ECOVERO Viscose in black fibers are not only more durable and fade-resistant, they also make the most of resource-saving processes that reduce carbon emissions by at least 50% and require at least 50% less water.

At the end of their usable lives, the fibers used in The Black Towel Collection by Lenzing are certified compostable.
Trend Themes
1. Fade-resistant Textiles - Innovative fibers that maintain their color integrity over multiple washes tackle the common problem of fabric discoloration.
2. Sustainable Personal Care Products - Products designed for multiple uses that save on resources reflect a growing consumer demand for sustainability.
3. Compostable Fibers - Fibers that can break down at the end of their lifecycle address environmental concerns by reducing long-term waste.

2. Personal Care - The personal care sector is seeing a shift towards sustainable, reusable products that reduce environmental impact.
3. Eco-friendly Manufacturing - Manufacturers focusing on environmentally responsible processes are attracting customers who prioritize sustainability.
