Lenzing Launches ProModal Blended Fiber

Austria-headquartered cellulosic fiber manufacturer Lenzing AG has introduced ProModal, a blend of the company's Lenzing Modal and Tencel fibers. The firm reports ProModal offers Modal's soft hand in combination with Tencel's moisture absorption, skin-sensitive properties and strength.

ProModal is homogenously blended gram by gram using a specific blending ratio of Modal and a Tencel fiber developed for the application. Lenzing reports that textiles made with the blended fiber exhibit enhanced tear strength and bursting pressure, and a soft hand with increased fullness.

ProModal can be used alone in knitwear and can also be blended with cotton according to Lenzing.
