SUSTAINABILITY

For a better future, we perceive the sustainability as our philosophy of life and working instead of an achievement in business.
Implementations such as BCI (Better Cotton Initiative) and the consumption of Organic Cotton, Sustainable Lyocell (Tencel™ Lyocell) and Traceable Viscose (Lenzing™ Ecovera™) form a basis for our efforts of sustainability. It is considered important to create social benefit and long-lasting impacts in all of our workings and projects. For this purpose, our sustainability policy is developed and managed with the help of the best methods, standards and industry-implementations.
