Resources
Responsible use of resources out of conviction
OUR APPROACH
Resource preservation is at the core of Lenzing’s innovation agenda and a key element in our "Better Growth" strategy. We believe in growth and prosperity that are based on renewable resources, as is the case with our fibers.
Our fiber production relies on a range of different resources procured from carefully selected partners. Our most important resource is renewable: natural wood – from which we extract pulp. Sustainable wood and pulp sourcing as well as responsible water stewardship are defined as two prominent focus areas in Lenzing’s sustainability strategy.
Lenzing has put in place a strict, group-wide set of rules for all purchased resources. Our Global Supplier Code of Conduct requires all suppliers to comply with certain standards regarding health, safety, respect for human rights, environmental protection, ethical principles and management practice. Becoming a Lenzing supplier means adhering to these principles, without compromise.
The Lenzing Group and its suppliers are annualy assessed by EcoVadis, a recognized platform for sustainability assessment in global supply chains. Our company achieved “Platinum Status” for the entire Lenzing Group.
