Lenzing is collaborating with an Indonesian company Murata to improve the agricultural maintenance industry. The wood-based rayon fiber produced by Lenzing is the most productive, functional and sustainable textile fiber for Murata Vortex Spinning. With this collaboration, Lenzing and Murata are able to meet the market demand for yarn raw materials from the textile and garment industry. Lenzing is increasing partnerships with leading textile manufacturers who have environmentally friendly credentials in the textile and nonwoven sector. Blending the fiber with the Vortex spinning system is expected to result in a better quality yarn product.
Murata Vortex Spinning is the fastest yarn spinning system, reaching 550 mt. per minute with a short process. This system makes it possible to process fiber raw materials into new threads that are already arranged. Lenzing also facilitates opportunities and trends to develop products and utilize new fiber for Tencel, Lenzing and Ecovero and their blends through testing at the Lenzing Center of Excellence and developing partnerships with trading partners and partners related to textile value chains. Sustainability is something Lenzing stresses on and this is a strength required by Vortex. Lenzing’s decarbonization targets make it a frontrunner, not only in the world of fiber producers but also among major industrial companies.
