Lenzing working with recycled fibers

For Lenzing sustainability is an integral feature of group strategy. Crucial operational components being implemented include the sustainable procurement of wood and a responsible handling of water.

Lenzing produces functional, aesthetic and emotional products by utilizing the raw material, wood, from carbon dioxide and sunlight. At the end of their useful lives, the fibers are biodegradable and thus once again serve as the basis for new plant growth.

Other key aspects of the sustainability strategy applied by Lenzing are the de carbonisation of production for the sake of improved climate protection as well as the promotion of sustainable innovations designed to replace resource-intensive, environmentally harmful products.

Largely closed chemical cycles ensure the environmentally compatible production of Lenzing fibers. Accordingly, more than 99 per cent of the solvent used to manufacture Tencel fibers is recovered.

This approach is complemented by a close cooperation with the value chain in order to jointly develop and implement systemic solutions. The group closely works with multi-stakeholder initiatives and actively supports a range of NGOs devoted to propagating sustainability principles. With this in mind, Lenzing is pursuing a policy oriented toward the long term which features transparency and mutual trust with all its stakeholders.

Lenzing is a producer of wood-based cellulose fibers.
