Together into a sustainable future
The smartest and most sustainable fiber innovations can only create value if all subsequent stages of processing commit to equally high levels of sustainability. For this reason, we are open to share expertise and to develop solutions together with all our partners along the value chain.
The requirement for sustainability means considerable challenges for companies in the textile and nonwovens industry at all stages of the value chain. The topics mainly relate to preserving natural resources, protecting the climate, offering fair working conditions and promoting the circular economy.
For many years now, we passionately commit to the approach of “value chain thinking”. We focus on the needs of consumers and work closely with our partners along the value chain to meet these needs while adhering to our sustainability principles.
Lenzing's practice of circular economy
What is the circular economy? What does it look like in practice? Who is doing it now? And how can you get involved?
Textile Exchange is a globally positioned NGO which has defined the goal of reversing the negative environmental impacts of the textile industry. This association recommends Lenzing’s fibers as “preferred fibers“ in the textile industry.
The Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC) is an initiative of the world’s leading textile brands and companies. Lenzing is a founding member of the SAC. Together with SAC, we work on further developing the global “Higg Index” standard as well as on many other eco-conscious improvements.
Canopy stands up for protected endangered forests in cooperation with stakeholders in the wood industry. Each year, Canopy publishes its Hot Button Report, a ranking of all producers of cellulose fibers according to their performance, transparency and innovation on wood and dissolving wood pulp sourcing.
