Description

The most comfortable Brazilian briefs ever are made of eucalyptus! This fabric is softer than silk, better than bamboo and cooler than cotton. Thanks to this fabric, the briefs breathe, are antibacterial and control moisture. Great fit and no annoying tags, with a very soft elastic waistband.

TENCEL™ LYOCELL is bacteriostatic and thermoregulatory, above all it is very breathable. Thanks to the microscopic channels present in the fiber, the humidity that is created in your body evaporates quickly and consequently bacteria have no chance to develop. For this reason it also keeps you fresh and dry.

The small amount of elastane allows the garment to have an excellent fit and extra comfort.

Produced in Portugal by the company Saint Basic

The TENCEL™ used comes from eucalyptus wood grown in South Africa in FSC certified forests in the wetlands of the Mpumalanga province in South Africa, territories that cannot be used for agriculture. Due to its "thirst" the eucalyptus tree is also used to drain swamps. In nature this tree grows very quickly. It also has impressive growth spurts and can reach over 60 meters in height! Its cultivation has a 95% lower environmental impact than cotton. In fact, only 22% of the soil is used compared to cotton, water consumption is only 4% compared to cotton and obviously no pesticides or fertilizers are used.

The textile fiber transformation process is done by the Austrian company LENZING (EU Ecolabel certified) in a sustainable and zero waste way through a closed circuit system where 99.5% of the solvent is reused. Furthermore, no aggressive chemicals such as sulfuric acid are used but an organic compound (amine oxide).
From spinning, to the creation of the fabric up to packaging, the manufacturing process moves to Portugal in the Impetus company where, thanks to modern and sophisticated machinery, the fabric is created. The dyeing takes place in another company not far away and the dyes used are lead-free and compliant with GOTS standards.
The result is a very soft, durable and high quality fabric.

The manufacturing company Impetus offers a healthy, happy and safe working environment for workers. There is no child labor and wages are fair. The company even offers scholarships and internships to the children of employees.
The factory also has its own water treatment system, uses biomass to produce hot water, and generates about 20 percent of its electricity supply from its solar panels.
