Why does the Torah enjoin us regarding techelet? Because techelet resembles sapphire, and the Tablets were made of sapphire, to tell you that as long as Bnei Yisrael gaze upon this techelet they are reminded of what is inscribed on the Tablets and observe the commandments, therefore it is written, ‘And you shall see it [the techelet string] and remember all of the commandments of G-d and you shall do them.’ - Mishnat Rabbi Eliezer, Chap. 14
Lashonot Hatzemer tzitzit dyed with Murex trunculus by the Techeiles Chabura organization.

Standard Techeiles Chabura is made using Lashonot Hatzemer strings, which means the strings are made with mitzvah intent starting a bit earlier in the production stage than standard hand-spun tzitzit. A Niputz Lishmah upgrade is also available. All strings dyed by Techeiles Chabura are made under the kashrut supervision of the Eidah Chareidis of Jerusalem.
Which set you choose (Rambam, Raavad or Tosafot) depends which opinion you follow, and how you plan to tie the tzitzit.
To tie according to the Rambam or the Arizal, you will typically choose Rambam strings. This techelet set comes with three white strings and one half white/half blue string for each corner.
To tie according to the Vilna Gaon, Sefer HaChinuch, Amram Gaon or the Raavad, you will generally select Raavad strings. This set comes with three white strings and one blue string for each corner.
To tie according to the Tosafot, or any of the above based on the Tosafot's opinion regarding the number of blue strings, choose Tosafot strings. This set comes with two white strings and two blue strings for each corner.
