Environment & Social Responsibility

Glanzstoff Industries takes its responsibility to its employees, society and future generations very seriously. The initial product for viscose production is solely pulp from sustainable cultivated plantations. Gasses containing sulphur that occur during production are converted to sulphuric acid in the world's most modern air purification system by means of a catalytic oxidation process, so that the strict emission limits are undershot. The sulphuric acid produced during air purification is fed directly back to the spinning process. Process water is treated in a multi-stage process in which sodium sulphate is isolated as a valuable by-product. Efficient use of energy at Glanzstoff Industries is not just limited to production, rather it also includes optimisation of the transport routes as well, for example. Due to the geographical location right in the heart of Europe, Glanzstoff Industries can realise the shortest, and hence the most fuel-efficient transport routes.
