The new combi-fiber improves textiles. Thus an enhanced tear strength and bursting pressure can be determined following mercerization. Both of these parameters are important for processing. It is this superior quality that explains the special robustness of fabrics of ProModal®. The hand of ProModal® textiles has the accustomed softness but a greater volume. ProModal® is used in 100% form in knitwear and in blends with cotton. The goal is to conquer all the applications of Lenzing Modal® and emphasize new features in this textile application with ProModal®

ProModal® for the sake of the environment
With ProModal®, as with every Lenzing fiber, you can feel Nature. The fiber blend is extracted from wood and numerous ecological aspects are taken into consideration. Lenzing fibers are -- per se- an environmental alternative to cotton. During their production they have a much lower impact on the human environment than cotton. Thus the yield of ProModal® is approximately six times higher than that of cotton and the water consumption is 10-20 times lower.
