Naturally successful
For our partners in the textile and nonwoven industry, Lenzing’s cellulose and fibers are their starting point to value creation. Together with our customers we develop solutions that add value to their businesses and products. Our relationships, however, expand even further: from B2B to B2C. With consumers’ needs and perspectives in mind, we cooperate with renown fashion brands. While adding value to their business, we ourselves are increasingly acknowledged as a premium consumer brand.
It’s a long way from the forest to the product in the shop. Turning cellulose fiber into a luxuriously soft blouse on a boutique rack or a smart sports outfit with perfect thermal regulation involves numerous stages and specialists. More often than not, these stages and specialists are rather disconnected.
This is where Lenzing plays a key role by doing much more than supplying fibers. All our business customers—spinners, weavers, mills, dye works and converters, but also fashion brands and retailers—highly regard us as their committed, reliable partner because we understand their needs, share insights and think ahead together.
Thus, we support success and profitability of all our customers along the entire value chain. Be it the generation of ideas or the detection of new trends—in any case our specialists are ready to develop individual, tailor-made models for mutually beneficial collaborations.
Actually, this partnership approach creates a truly unique benefit: a shared feeling of togetherness, excitement and mutual appreciation. To us, there is no better way to be successful.
Wood – because there’s no better choice
With the world’s growing population and rising disposable income, tomorrow’s demand for top-quality fiber products will be even higher than today. To address this future challenge, there’s no better answer than Lenzing’s botanic fibers.
Fibers made from natural wood are the answer to some of our planet’s most pressing problems.
Solutions sourced from sustainably forested wood are unique: No other raw material is as beneficial to our planet when it comes to meeting a growing population’s demands and preserving resources at the same time. As soon as a tree starts to grow it begins to protect our environment – by absorbing CO2 greenhouse gas to an extent that otherwise only our oceans can manage.
At Lenzing, we strongly believe in life, not merely in survival. Therefore, our preferred wood suppliers have their forestry operations certified, and the pulp we procure comes from sustainable, certified production plants. Or take a look at Lenzing’s new REFIBRA™ technology: Here, we mix cellulose with the textile industry’s cotton scraps to produce our fibers. We’re truly relentless in the pursuit of innovative, eco-friendly solutions: Biorefinery products from our biorefinery, for example, are a valuable supply to the food industry. Processing wood to cellulose and fiber simultaneously supplies the energy we need for our production facilities. And the end of our fibers’ life cycle is as natural as their wooden origin: Lenzing fibers are bio-degradable, their remains provide the ground for new plants to grow.
So, this is why Lenzing will grow too.
We know each other well
Lenzing fibers shape human life in a stunning variety of ways. There are countless products around us with “Lenzing inside”, and every day brings many more innovative, useful, surprising, reliable, effective, and successful solutions for life.
Apparel Applications
Soft. Precious. Luxurious. Our products are truly multi-talented: Lenzing’s classical viscose fibers are the premium ingredient of choice, particularly for use in women’s clothing.
TENCEL™ fibers are used for a great variety of garments, from premium denim fashion to sensually soft lingerie and nightwear.
Home textiles
Enjoy quality time in your bath and bedroom with bedding, mattress cases or towels made of TENCEL™ fibers. Excellent in thermal regulation, moisture absorption, and so gentle on skin that they are among the world’s favorites—particularly for loving parents and other connoisseurs who cherish a good night’s sleep.
Nonwoven Applications
While fibers for textile applications are mainly processed in weaving or spinning, fibers for the Nonwoven segment get pressed. These fibers are then converted to fleece used in diapers or wipes. Lenzing has developed some of the smartest solutions in this industry, successfully addressing complex challenges like sensitive skin, moisture absorption or biodegradability.
Industrial Applications
From Hi-Tech to “Hi-Tex”: Lenzing offers highly sophisticated fiber solutions for special applications in industry and agriculture. For example, our fibers are used in tomato and hop farming, for car manufacturing, in battery separators or as eco-conscious packaging for organically grown fruit and groceries. Our fibers are not only life-improving, but they can also be life-saving: They act as a flame retardant in the protection wear of fire fighters.
Biorefinery and co-products
Purely natural: acetic acid, xylose, furfural, magnesium lignosulfonate, sodium sulfate and soda - all these substances are valuable co-products in Lenzing’s production of wood-based cellulose and fibers. We market these co-products successfully; consciously recognizing our responsibility for the planet’s resources and respectfully utilizing all the components of our natural source material.
