Its smooth feel and moisture management appeal to hot sleepers, but care, shrinkage and durability still matter. This guide explains what lyocell is, how it is made, how it compares with TENCEL\u2122, modal and viscose, and what to expect from everyday use.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wil__answer\">\n<p><span class=\"wil__qa-lab\">Quick answer:<\/span> Lyocell is a regenerated cellulose fibre made from wood or bamboo pulp. The cellulose is dissolved in NMMO and spun into fibres in a closed loop process that recovers up to 99% of the solvent. It is breathable, moisture absorbent and smooth, but it can wrinkle, snag and shrink when exposed to harsh washing or high heat. TENCEL\u2122 is a brand of lyocell, not a different material.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"wil__open-fig\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" src=\"https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/sensoire-lyocell-bedding-600x600.webp\" width=\"460\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/sensoire-lyocell-bedding-300x300.webp 300w, https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/sensoire-lyocell-bedding-600x600.webp 600w, https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/sensoire-lyocell-bedding-768x768.webp 768w, https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/sensoire-lyocell-bedding.webp 1254w\" sizes=\"(max-width:760px) 300px, 460px\" alt=\"Cream lyocell sheets and pillowcases on an oak bed beside a white table lamp\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<nav class=\"wil__index\" aria-label=\"In this guide\">\n<p class=\"wil__lab\">In this guide<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><a href=\"#wil-what-is-lyocell-fabric\">What Is Lyocell Fabric and What Is It Made Of?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#wil-natural-fibre\">Is Lyocell a Natural Fibre?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#wil-lyocell-vs-tencel-modal-viscose\">Lyocell vs TENCEL\u2122 vs Modal vs Viscose<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#wil-bamboo-vs-eucalyptus-lyocell\">Bamboo Lyocell vs Eucalyptus Lyocell<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#wil-breathable-cool\">Is Lyocell Breathable and Cool?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#wil-does-lyocell-shrink\">Does Lyocell Shrink When Washed?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#wil-disadvantages\">What Are the Disadvantages of Lyocell?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#wil-faq\">FAQs About Lyocell<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/nav>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wil__wrap\">\n<div class=\"wil__part\" id=\"wil-what-is-lyocell-fabric-sec\">\n<div class=\"wil__no\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wil__h2\" id=\"wil-what-is-lyocell-fabric\">What Is Lyocell Fabric and What Is It Made Of?<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<p>Lyocell is a regenerated cellulose fibre made from renewable materials such as wood and bamboo.

This pulp is then dissolved in an organic solvent called <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/N-Methylmorpholine_N-oxide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NMMO<\/a> and spun into fibres.<\/p>\n<p>There is no chemical reaction in this process. It simply changes the physical form of natural cellulose, making lyocell a more environmentally responsible option. This reduces solvent use, wastewater and related emissions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wil__wrap\">\n<div class=\"wil__part\" id=\"wil-natural-fibre-sec\">\n<div class=\"wil__no\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wil__h2\" id=\"wil-natural-fibre\">Is Lyocell a Natural Fibre?<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wil__row wil__row--r\">\n<div class=\"wil__row-body\">\n<p>Lyocell is neither a natural fibre like silk or linen nor a synthetic fibre like polyester. It comes from plant based cellulose, but it must be processed and regenerated to form new fibres. The textile industry therefore classifies lyocell as a regenerated cellulose fibre, which is a type of manufactured fibre. Viscose and modal belong to the same category.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"wil__row-fig\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/subbanner-600x600.webp\"

Lyocell Shrink When Washed?<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wil__row wil__row--r\">\n<div class=\"wil__row-body\">\n<p>Lyocell fabric shrinks slightly after washing. But it shrinks less than cotton. Without preshrinking, the first wash may cause shrinkage of around 8%, depending on the fabric structure, weight and finishing process.<\/p>\n<p>Most lyocell fabrics are preshrunk to improve dimensional stability. Overfeeding allows extra fabric to enter during production, leaving room for later shrinkage. Mechanical preshrinking contracts the fabric before it is made into a finished product. With proper treatment, the first wash shrinkage of 100% lyocell fabric is usually around 1%.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"wil__row-fig\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/white-lyocell-pillow-600x600.webp\" width=\"280\" height=\"280\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/white-lyocell-pillow-300x300.webp 300w, https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/white-lyocell-pillow-600x600.webp 600w, https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/white-lyocell-pillow-768x768.webp 768w, https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/white-lyocell-pillow.webp 1254w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width:760px) 270px, 280px\" alt=\"White lyocell pillowcases and duvet cover on a bed against a greige wall\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wil__row wil__row--l\">\n<div class=\"wil__row-body\">\n<h3 class=\"wil__h3\">How to Wash Lyocell Sheets<\/h3>\n<ol class=\"wil__steps\">\n<li>Wash in cold or lukewarm water.<\/li>\n<li>Select the gentle cycle on your washing machine.<\/li>\n<li>Use mild, pH neutral detergent and avoid bleach.<\/li>\n<li>Do not wring or twist the fabric firmly after washing.<\/li>\n<li>Air dry in shade and avoid high heat tumble drying.<\/li>\n<li>Use low temperature ironing only when necessary.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"wil__row-fig\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/lyocell-bedding-600x600.png\" width=\"280\" height=\"280\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/lyocell-bedding-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/lyocell-bedding-600x600.png 600w, https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/lyocell-bedding-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/lyocell-bedding.png 1254w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width:760px) 270px, 280px\" alt=\"A bed made with white bamboo lyocell sheets and pillowcases beside a ceramic lamp\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>For more details on caring for bamboo lyocell, see our guide on <a href=\"https:\/\/sensoire.com\/how-to-wash-bamboo-sheets\/\">how to wash bamboo sheets<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wil__wrap\">\n<div class=\"wil__part\" id=\"wil-disadvantages-sec\">\n<div class=\"wil__no\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wil__h2\" id=\"wil-disadvantages\">What Are the Disadvantages of Lyocell?<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wil__cons\">\n<div class=\"wil__con\">\n<h3 class=\"wil__h3\">Does Lyocell Wrinkle Easily?<\/h3>\n<p>Lyocell or bamboo lyocell wrinkles easily, especially when folded or stored for long periods.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wil__con\">\n<h3 class=\"wil__h3\">How Resistant Is Lyocell to Abrasion?<\/h3>\n<p>Frequent rubbing can cause wear and pilling.

The raw material is processed into dissolving pulp, dissolved in NMMO and spun into new fibres.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>\n<h3 class=\"wil__h3\">Is lyocell the same as TENCEL\u2122?<\/h3>\n<\/summary>\n<p>Lyocell is the generic fibre name. TENCEL\u2122 is Lenzing\u2019s brand name for its lyocell fibres, so it is a branded form of lyocell rather than a separate material.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>\n<h3 class=\"wil__h3\">Is lyocell a natural fibre?<\/h3>\n<\/summary>\n<p>Lyocell comes from plant cellulose, but it is dissolved and regenerated into new fibres. The textile industry therefore classifies it as a regenerated cellulose fibre and a type of manufactured fibre.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>\n<h3 class=\"wil__h3\">Does lyocell shrink when washed?<\/h3>\n<\/summary>\n<p>Lyocell can shrink during washing, especially when it has not been preshrunk or is exposed to high heat. The amount depends on the fabric structure, weight, finishing process and care method.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>\n<h3 class=\"wil__h3\">Is lyocell breathable and cool for hot sleepers?<\/h3>\n<\/summary>\n<p>Yes. Lyocell allows airflow and absorbs moisture well. It moves moisture away from the skin, which can help bedding feel cooler and less clammy for hot sleepers and in humid rooms.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wil__shop\">\n<p class=\"wil__shop-label\">From the Collection<\/p>\n<div class=\"wil__cards\">\n<div class=\"wil__card\"><a class=\"wil__card-img\" href=\"https:\/\/sensoire.com\/product\/bamboo-lyocell-duvet-cover-set\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/sensoire-duvet-white-main-01-600x600.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/sensoire-duvet-white-main-01-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/sensoire-duvet-white-main-01-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/sensoire-duvet-white-main-01-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sensoire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/sensoire-duvet-white-main-01.webp 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width:520px) 300px, 230px\" alt=\"Sensoire white bamboo lyocell duvet cover set folded with pillow shams on a light wood surface\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wil__card-k\">100% Bamboo Lyocell &middot;
