SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGY

“Naturally Positive”: three core pillars

Value Chain Integration

Environmental criteria are increasingly relevant in purchasing decisions across the textile and nonwoven value chain. Lenzing addresses this by applying defined production standards, improving resource efficiency, and providing fibers with verified environmental.

Industry Collaboration

Collaboration across the value chain is a core principle at Lenzing. The company works with partners, suppliers, and industry organizations to address shared challenges, including resource use, emissions reduction, and product development. 

Circular Solutions

Lenzing supports circular material flows by enabling the reuse of textile waste, developing recycling technologies, and improving process efficiency and recovery systems to reduce the need for primary raw materials. These activities include collaborations with partners and the integration of recycling technologies into fiber production.
