MUMBAI – The Aditya Birla Group has received the results of its second CanopyStyle audit, which reaffirms that the company is of low risk of sourcing from ancient and endangered forests, or other controversial sources.
The company joins both Lenzing and Chinese producer Tangshan Sanyou, who in recent weeks have also undertaken audits and demonstrated a willingness to source wood pulp in more sustainable ways.
“Collaborating with Canopy and CanopyStyle audits have been a great learning experience for the Birla Cellulose and has helped us continually strengthen our sustainable forestry and wood sourcing practices,” said Dilip Gaur, business director of Birla Cellulose. “Partnering with our upstream and downstream value chain to continually improve the forestry practices and co-create next generation feedstock solutions is among our highest priorities.”
