At Soothla, we believe sustainability and comfort should go hand in hand. That’s why we chose lyocell, one of the most eco-friendly and skin-loving fabrics on the planet, as the foundation of all our products—from baby clothes to children’s bedding and adult bed sheets. And with our signature lyocell + zinc oxide blend, we’ve created something even better: a fabric that soothes, protects, and lasts.
But what exactly makes lyocell stand out? Let’s take a closer look.
What Is Lyocell?
Lyocell is a natural fiber made from sustainably sourced wood pulp (often from eucalyptus or beech trees), produced in a closed-loop process that reuses over 99% of water and solvents. It’s soft, breathable, and biodegradable—everything you'd want in a fabric for your family and the planet.

What Makes Soothla’s Fabric Unique?

-
Clinically proven to soothe irritated skin
-
Recommended by pediatricians
