What the brand names mean

Trademarks on a label describe the fiber, not your exposure. Here is what each one is and what it does not cover. None of it moves the score.

Bamboo lyocellscored as lyocell

This is the version of bamboo worth paying for. Bamboo is the plant it started as, and lyocell is the process it went through: a closed loop that recaptures over 99 percent of a non-toxic solvent. That is a different fiber from ordinary bamboo, which is viscose.

The word bamboo on a tag does not promise this. Almost every other bamboo fabric is viscose and scores far lower. The composition is what tells you which one you have.

what it is made of

The Hand Woven Throw Blanket is made entirely of lyocell. Lyocell is a clean fiber regenerated from wood in a closed loop that reuses its solvent. That composition is what Toxome scores, and it earns 88 out of 100 on the fiber scale, where 100 is cleanest. This piece carries OEKO-TEX Standard 100, which covers how the fiber was grown and processed, not just what it is.

FAQ

What is the Hand Woven Throw Blanket made of?

It is 100% lyocell.

Is lyocell safe to wear?

Lyocell is a clean fiber regenerated from wood in a closed loop that reuses its solvent. Toxome rates every fiber on what it does to the body of the person wearing it, and publishes the reasoning rather than a badge. The score covers the fiber, not the dyes and finishes a mill adds later.

How does Toxome score clothing?

Toxome reads each garment's fiber composition and scores it on what that fiber does to your body, not on a brand's sustainability marketing. A higher score means a cleaner fiber. Composition is taken from what the brand publishes, so the score reflects the label rather than our opinion of it.
