Carhartt Chooses TENCEL™ for Women’s Workwear

Denim was the original workwear. Miners in the 1800s relied on durable woven denim overalls for their work underground. Over the years, the denim industry has expanded its fiber choices beyond cotton, using wood-based fibers like TENCEL™ in jeans.

Now, TENCEL™ is finding a home in modern work clothes beyond denim. Workwear brand Carhartt is catering to women with an apparel collection that leans on the softness and strength of Lenzing’s TENCEL™ fibers.
