LENZING – Austrian cellulose fibre producer Lenzing has decided to pull its Chinese Lenzing Nanjing Fibers (LNF) operation out of the Collaboration for Sustainable Development of Viscose (CV).
The company says it intends to ‘pursue its own path to green up the industry’ by setting up new collaborations within the cellulosic fibre supplier chain, such as forest owners, spinners, weavers and knitters, fabric makers as well as brands and retailers selling products made from wood-based fibres.
It also says it will now introduce the ‘eco-responsible process' for the production of its Lenzing branded viscose fibres to LNF.
