What are the main benefits of a Tencel pillowcase?

Tencel is a botanical fiber known for superior moisture wicking and a silky-soft feel. It absorbs moisture more efficiently than cotton, keeping your face dry and comfortable.

Is Tencel better than cotton for hot sleepers?

Yes, Tencel has a natural cooling effect and excellent temperature regulation. It is highly recommended for those who tend to overheat at night.

Is Tencel environmentally friendly?

Tencel is produced using a sustainable closed-loop process and is fully biodegradable, making it an excellent choice for eco-conscious shoppers.

How do I wash Tencel to keep it soft?

Wash at 30-40°C with mild detergent. Air drying is highly recommended to preserve the silky texture and prevent shrinking.

Tencel pillowcase

Our very fine and luxurious TENCEL® pillowcases from Hefel are made from 100% purely natural wood cellulose (wood fibres) and combine the most sought-after and important properties of all textile types.

With our Tencel pillowcase, you can prevent sleep creases, cool your head in the heat and are guaranteed smoother hair without frizz. This makes the Tencel pillowcase a much better alternative than a silk pillowcase. Silk as a fabric is very delicate and quickly becomes 'faded/pale' after washing. In addition, Tencel is made from a fast-growing type of wood (so not derived from an animal as with silk) and is produced completely sustainably.

For people with an allergy to house dust mites or asthma, sleeping on a Tencel pillowcase is highly recommended. People with sensitive skin also find Tencel a relief because it is light, soft and supple and does not irritate the skin.
