Learn more about Modal

Modal is a man-made regenerated cellulose fibre. It is obtained from beech wood and has natural properties such as a beautiful drape, a silky sheen and an excellent ability to absorb colour. It is often described as an improved viscose.

Modal fibre offers:

  • A soft touch with a “second skin” feel.
  • 50% more moisture absorption than cotton, and faster.
  • A lustrous effect, thanks to its smooth surface.
  • Fast, deep and permanent dye uptake.

At La Colonial you can order 100% modal yarn, or modal blended with cotton, Tencel, baby alpaca and other fibres.
