“Lenzing’s VEOCEL™ Brand, Modal With Indigo. As of June 2021, Austria-based Lenzing’s VEOCEL™ Lyocell fibers will be available as certified CarbonNeutral® products with a carbon footprint reduced to net-zero, according to The CarbonNeutral Protocol. This achievement was the result of Lenzing’s ambitious goals over the past few years and its collaboration with Natural Capital Partners, a corporate climate action program company. Lenzing was able to reduce its carbon emissions to net-zero with higher production efficiencies, renewable energy sources and low carbon materials, among other methods. Lenzing nonwovens customers now can reduce climate impact by using the carbon-neutral VEOCEL™ fibers in their own processes.”
