Producer of specialty fibres for the textile and nonwoven industries, Lenzing Group has bagged the platinum status in the EcoVadis CSR rating and puts Lenzing in the top one percent of global companies rated by EcoVadis.
The rating comprehensively covers the four most important practices in the area of corporate social responsibility: environment, fair working conditions and human rights, as well as ethics and sustainable procurement.
Lenzing has been awarded Platinum status for the third time, for its sustainability performance by EcoVadis, a leading international provider of sustainability ratings for companies.
EcoVadis has become the world’s largest and most trusted provider of corporate sustainability ratings since its founding in 2007, creating a global network of more than 100,000 rated companies worldwide.
