PURWAKARTA –Lenzing has received accreditation to the EU Ecolabel standard for the production of cellulosic fibres at its manufacturing facility in Purwakarta, Indonesia.
The site, which recently underwent a series of technical upgrades, will now produce Lenzing Ecovero branded fibres for textiles and Veocel branded fibres for nonwovens applications.
