PULP

Basis for responsible fiber production: LDCel und Biocel Pulp

ABOUT THE PRODUCT

Lenzing transforms certified and controlled wood into high-performance dissolving wood pulp. As one of the only producers worldwide to offer both softwood and hardwood pulp, we enable optimum performance for diverse fiber production needs.

At the pulp mill in Brazil, LDCel hardwood dissolving pulp is produced, while Lenzing Biocel Paskov in the Czech Republic specializes in Biocel softwood dissolving pulp. Both pulp products are tested for use in Lenzing’s own fiber production to support consistent product quality.

The wood used as raw material comes from certified or controlled sources. The pulp is produced using a totally chlorine-free bleaching process based on oxygen compounds. LDCel and Biocel dissolving pulp are developed for defined fiber production requirements and applications.

BENEFITS

How you benefit from LDCel und Biocel Pulp

Eco-responsible wood sourcing for pulp production

Lenzing sources wood and pulp only from non-controversial sources and enhances credibility by verifying traceability through independent third parties such as FSC® and PEFC.

Complete wood portfolio

Lenzing is one of the first companies worldwide to offer both softwood and hardwood dissolving pulp, delivered through efficient rail and sea logistics for reliable global supply.

Production-proven quality

All of the Lenzing pulps are Lenzing approved in its own fiber production based on strict standards. Continuous testing ensures consistent quality performance.

Bleaching without chlorine compounds.

Our totally chlorine-free (TCF) bleaching uses oxygen-based compounds. This both enables exceptional purity and reduces our environmental impact.

Leading in sourcing rankings

The results of the Canopy Hot Button Ranking and CDP assessments show that Lenzing achieves high ratings in the respective areas assessed, including wood sourcing, climate change, forests and water security.

Brazil’s premium pulp pioneer

LD Celulose, our joint venture in Indianópolis, Brazil, represents an investment of USD 1.38 billion in next-generation dissolving wood pulp production. The site produces dissolving wood pulp from eucalyptus wood sourced from FSC®-certified plantations within a 70-kilometer radius.

The integrated operation combines wood from FSC®-certified eucalyptus plantations with a totally chlorine-free bleaching process based on oxygen compounds. The site generates the energy required for its operations and supplies surplus energy externally. Regular rail transport to the Portocel port supports deliveries to international markets.

Softwood pulp specialist in Europe

Lenzing Biocel Paskov, in operation since 1983, is one of the world’s largest mills for softwood dissolving pulp. With an annual capacity of 300,000 tons, our Czech facility specializes in producing high-quality softwood pulp − primarily from spruce harvested in Central Europe.

The site generates the energy required for its operations and supplies surplus electricity externally.

Paskov uses a totally chlorine-free bleaching process and sources 98 percent of its energy from renewable sources.
