Birla Viscose

Comfort is a fibre called Birla Viscose

The only heavy metal-free fibre in the world, Birla Viscose has a unique cross-section and a brilliant lustre. It is more absorptive and softer, making it more pleasant to the skin. With its lustre, sheen, drape, smoothness and breathability, this fibre is extremely well suited for blending with other fibres. It is also available in a wide range of cut lengths and titre combinations.

Spun shades

Brighter, greener, colour-fast fibres

Birla Spunshades, our vibrant, heavy metal-free, coloured spun-dyed viscose fibre, MMF are made with a revolutionary technique that places the colour pigments in to the fibre itself. This avoids conventional dyeing in the downstream value chain, which saves 30 litres of water (and the accompanying colour pollution) for every metre of fabric processed. The result is a colour that fully saturates the fibre—a much better solution than conventional dyeing. Birla Spunshades is available in a colour palette spanning over 150 shades, 10 of which are extensively used in the non-woven sector.
