Technical Specifications and Performance Overview of Tencel (Lyocell) Mattress Fabric

Tencel (Lyocell) mattress fabric is a specialized textile engineered from wood pulp cellulose through a closed-loop solvent spinning process. This material represents a significant advancement in sleep surface technology, offering a unique combination of botanical origin and industrial durability. The fiber structure is characterized by its sub-microscopic fibrils, which are hydrophilic in nature, allowing for efficient moisture absorption and distribution across the fabric surface. Designed specifically for the bedding and mattress industry, this fabric supports a dry sleep microclimate by managing humidity levels more effectively than conventional synthetic fibers. Its physical properties include high tensile strength in both wet and dry states, ensuring the fabric maintains its dimensional stability and structural integrity over extended periods of mechanical stress and compression.

Core Technical Advantages

  • Advanced Moisture Management: The cellulose fibers absorb moisture into the inner part of the fiber, reducing surface humidity and inhibiting bacterial growth without chemical additives.
  • Thermal Regulation: Supports the body's natural thermal regulating mechanism by facilitating evaporative cooling, essential for maintaining a consistent sleep temperature.
  • Fiber Smoothness: The smooth surface profile of Lyocell fibers minimizes mechanical friction against the skin, making it suitable for sensitive skin applications.
  • Environmental Compliance: Produced via an OEKO-TEX certified process with high solvent recovery rates, meeting global standards for sustainable textile manufacturing.

  • Hospitality Bedding: Applied in hotel-grade sleep systems where durability and moisture control are operational priorities.
  • Home Textiles: Integrated into pillow covers and bolster fabrics for coordinated ergonomic sleep sets.

Maintenance and Storage Protocols

Storage Guidelines

To preserve the cellulose fiber integrity, rolls of Tencel mattress fabric should be stored in a cool, dry warehouse. Ensure the material is kept away from direct sunlight and UV exposure, which can cause fiber yellowing over time. Rolls should be placed on pallets to avoid direct contact with concrete floors to prevent moisture wicking from the ground.

Usage and Care Instructions

  • Washing Temperature: If the fabric is removable and washable, use a maximum temperature of 40°C to prevent fiber shrinkage.
  • Mechanical Stress: During the quilting and sewing process, ensure needle sharpness is maintained to prevent snagging the smooth Lyocell filaments.
  • Chemical Exposure: Avoid the use of chlorine-based bleaches, as these can degrade the natural polymer chains of the Lyocell fiber.

Tencel/Lyocell mattress fabric Industry knowledge

Does the Tencel/Lyocell mattress fabric undergo special treatments during the finishing process, such as antibacterial, anti-mite, flame retardant, etc.? Will these treatments affect the comfort and safety of the fabric?

Tencel/Lyocell fabric, derived from sustainably sourced eucalyptus pulp, is a revolutionary environmentally friendly material. It is not only soft and comfortable, and has excellent breathability, but also has the ability to naturally regulate body temperature, keeping people cool in summer and warm in winter. Its GSM (grams per square meter) range is between 160-320, providing a variety of thickness options to suit the sleeping preferences of different users. In addition, the fiber structure of Tencel/Lyocell fabric makes it antibacterial and deodorizing, and moisture wicking, creating a more hygienic and healthy sleeping environment for users.

At RONG LI, a number of special treatment technologies are indeed incorporated into the finishing process of Tencel/Lyocell mattress fabrics, aiming to further enhance the performance of the fabric while ensuring that these treatments do not compromise the comfort and safety of the fabric.

Antimicrobial treatment: Using advanced microbial control technology, RONG LI adds environmentally friendly antimicrobial agents to Tencel/Lyocell fabrics. These antimicrobial agents can effectively inhibit the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria and mold, reduce the number of bacteria on the surface of the fabric, and thus create a cleaner and healthier sleeping environment. It is worth noting that these antimicrobial agents are low-toxic, harmless and environmentally friendly materials, which will not have a negative impact on the breathability and softness of the fabric, nor will they pose a threat to human health.

Anti-mite treatment: In response to dust mites, a common indoor allergen, RONG LI has adopted efficient anti-mite finishing technology. Through chemical or physical methods, a fine barrier is formed on the surface of the fabric to effectively prevent the invasion of dust mites and their excrement. This treatment not only improves the anti-allergic performance of the fabric, but also retains the original breathability and comfort of Tencel/Lyocell fabrics, ensuring the sleep quality of users.

Flame retardant treatment: In order to improve the safety of the product, RONG LI also performs flame retardant treatment on Tencel/Lyocell fabrics. The use of environmentally friendly flame retardants, through chemical bonding or physical adsorption, enables the fabric to slow down the burning speed when encountering a fire source, and even achieve self-extinguishing in some cases. This treatment not only ensures the safety of the fabric, but also fully considers environmental protection requirements, avoiding the environmental pollution and human health problems that may be caused by traditional flame retardants.

When RONG LI performs special treatments on fabrics, it always puts comfort and safety first. Through carefully selected environmentally friendly treatment agents and scientific treatment processes, it ensures that these special treatments will not only not reduce the original advantages of Tencel/Lyocell fabrics, but will further improve their comprehensive performance.

Comfort: Antibacterial, anti-mite, flame retardant and other treatments all use low-toxic, harmless environmentally friendly materials, and the treatment process is strictly controlled to avoid damage to the fabric fiber structure. Therefore, the treated Tencel/Lyocell fabric still maintains its original softness, breathability and moisture absorption, providing users with a more comfortable and healthy sleeping experience.

Safety: RONG LI strictly abides by international environmental standards and safety regulations, and all treatment agents are strictly screened and tested to ensure that they are harmless to the human body. At the same time, the company also has its own laboratories and testing equipment to conduct four tests on products before leaving the factory to ensure that each piece of fabric meets safety standards. This series of measures provides users with safer and more reliable mattress fabric options.
