I believe–IIRC, and it’s been a while–that Tencel is either a specific process for making rayon, or is a brand. What you should be looking for in rayon that makes it better is closed-loop manufacturing. But US product labeling doesn’t require that kind of information; you’d have to ask the company that made the apparel, and they’d have to ask their mill or reseller.
Finding information about how green any part of the sewn-products industry is is very nearly an exercise in futility, unfortunately; companies don’t have to have the information, and they don’t have to disclose it.
