About
A low-cut thong in TENCEL Modal over a TENCEL Lyocell lining, both from wood pulp rather than petroleum. The lining is the part against skin and Huha makes it the cleaner of the two fibers, which is the reverse of how most underwear is built. Shown in beige.
Materials
Body: 90% TENCEL™ Modal, 10% Spandex Lining: 98% TENCEL™ Lyocell, 2% Spandex Breathable. Antimicrobial lining. Seam-free gusset infused with soothing zinc oxide.
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.
The spelled-out TENCEL name guarantees the closed-loop process: the solvent is non-toxic and over 99 percent of it is captured and reused instead of discharged. It is the cleanest regenerated fiber we score.
It covers the fiber, not the finished piece. Dyes and wrinkle-proof coatings go on after spinning, and that is where formaldehyde shows up. Look for OEKO-TEX on the garment too.
Modal made in a closed loop that recycles its chemicals and water, from checked beech wood. It scores better than unbranded modal because the process is accounted for rather than assumed.
It is still a viscose-family fiber, so making it uses carbon disulfide. That is a worker-safety story, not something that reaches your skin.
