About the brand  Stockholm based eco brand, Dedicated, started with a clear purpose which was to establish a modern and creative street style clothing brand that cares for the environment. They wanted to show that fashion can be done differently - to be fair and responsible in all aspects of production.They work with GOTS and Fairtrade-certified natural organic cottons, GRS recycled polyester, and eco fibres such as TENCEL™ Lyocell. For their design-based contemporary clothing prints they collaborate with photographers, illustrators, and artists worldwide to create unique, fun, and diverse collections.

Why Choose Tencel? Tencel® is the brand name for Lyocell which is a man-made cellulosic fabric made from wood pulp. It is produced in a closed-loop system, which means that 99% of the solvent as well as water is reused. It is obtained from trees that are grown on farms, eliminating the risk of deforestation. 99% of the wood comes from FSC and PEFC certified and sustainably managed forests. FSC and PEFC are non-profit, independent organisations working towards a long-term sustainable and viable use of the world’s forests. More than 50% of the wood is from Austrian and other European forests.  To extract the fiber from the wood, a biodegradable chemical is used, resulting in a viscous cellulose pulp. To convert into long fibers, the mass must be pressed through a large nozzle. Then, the fibers are dried, washed, spun into threads, and lastly woven into a textile material.
