REFIBRA™ technology: right out revolutionary
TENCEL™ Lyocell fibers with REFIBRA™ technology are manufactured in an award-winning efficient
closed-loop process, contributing to the circular economy in the textile industry. The use of resources and
energy is reduced to a minimum, at the same time we achieve distinguished level of environmental protection
and resource preservation.
A seemingly simple idea is at the core of this innovation: The pioneering REFIBRA™ technology involves
upcycling a substantial proportion of cotton scraps, e.g. from garment production, in addition to wood pulp
sourced from certified sustainable forestry.
This innovative method makes a significant contribution to efficiency and environmental protection. And
Lenzing is proud to pave the textile industry’s way towards the future-oriented concept of circular economy.
