There are two parts to the FSC® system:
● Forest Management (FM) certification which makes sure that the forest is managed to
high standards covering social, environmental and economic issues (see also Forest
Management Fact-sheet for more information): https://ic.fsc.org/forest-management-certification.38.htm
Forest Management (FM)認證,確保森林管理達到高標準,包含社會,環境和經濟問題

Note: “These Results were calculated using the Higg Material Sustainability Index (Higg MSI) tools
provided by the Sustainable Apparel Coalition. The Higg MSI tools assess impacts of materials from
cradle-to-gate for a finished material (e.g. to the point at which the materials are ready to be assembled
into a product). However, this figure only shows impacts from cradle to fiber production gate. Lenzing™
EcoVero™ branded viscose fibers’ Higg MSI score was calculated based on Lenzing fibers which are
already in the Higg MSI.”

Recycled Claim Standard RCS for TENCEL™ Lyocell fibers with REFIBRA™ technology RCS 標準 - 使用REFIBRA™技術的蘭精天絲品牌萊賽爾纖維
The RCS is used as a chain of custody standard to track recycled raw materials through the supply
chain. The Recycled Claim Standard verifies the presence and amount of recycled material in a
final product. This is achieved through input and chain-of custody verification by a third party. It
enables transparent, consistent, comprehensive independent evaluation and verification of recycled
materials. RCS被用作監控標準,通過供應鏈追踪循環利用的原材料。 .RCS期在驗證最終產品中再生材料的存在和數量。 這是通過第三方的監控與驗證。 它能夠對回收材料進行透明、一致,並全
面的獨立評估和驗證。
Lenzing can provide transaction certificates for RCS in case customer explicitly puts the RCS
request in their fiber order like for FSC or PEFC certificate: Lenzing可以為RCS提供交易證書,以便
客戶可以明確地將RCS同時與FSC或PEFC證書提供給品牌商與消費者。
Order, packing lists and invoices will then state that fiber is RCS 20% credit material and the
certificate number
Receiving transaction certificates in retrospect is not possible
在銷售前,可以在銷售合約與裝箱單中,提供該纖維是RCS 20%的信用材料和證書編號的證明。無
法在銷售後提供證明。

What is FSC Chain of Custody (CoC)? 什麼是FSC產銷監管鏈 (CoC)?
● Between the forest and the final consumer, forest products may undergo many stages
of processing, transformation, manufacturing and distribution. 樹林的產品從原料到最終消費者之間,可能經歷許多加工,改造,製造和運送階段。
● Chain of Custody grants full transparency and traceability for the materials certified
along the value chain. 產銷監管鏈(CoC)給予價值鏈原料認證的完全透明度和可追溯性。
● Whoever takes ownership of the FSC certified material must be certified to follow the
CoC certification rules 擁有FSC認證材料的所有權必須經過認證,以遵循CoC認證規則
● FSC Chain of Custody certification verifies that FSC certified material is identified or
kept segregated from non-certified material through this chain. FSC產銷監管鏈認證 證明通過此供應鏈是否是FSC認證材料。
30.04.2018 - 32 www.lenzing.com
Differences between FSC certified and FSC Controlled Wood FSC認證和FSC控制木材的差異
● “FSC certified” is awarded to forest managers or owners whose management practices
meet the requirements of the FSC Principles and Criteria – “FSC認證”授予管理符合FSC原則和標準要求的森林經營者或所有者 -
● FSC Controlled Wood or „Controlled Wood “
is designed to allow organizations to avoid the categories of wood considered
unacceptable. FSC控制木材或“受控木材”?旨在避免被認為不可接受的木材種類。
A risk assessment of these sources according to the “FSC controlled wood standard”
is necessary. 根據“FSC控制木材標準”對這些來源進行風險評估是必要的。
FSC Controlled Wood can be mixed with FSC certified wood to generate FSC Mix
products. FSC受控木材可與FSC認證木材混合生成FSC混合產品。
30.04.2018 - 33 www.lenzing.com
What does FSC Mix Credit mean? FSC Mix Credit 是什麼?
● The FSC Mix label let people know that 100% certified wood has been supplemented
with non-certified material. FSC Mix標籤讓大家知道100%認證木材已經被加上非認證材料。
● However, this non-certified material needs to adhere to a certain defined standard:
either the reclaimed wood standard or the controlled wood standard.”
這種非認證材料需遵守一定的標準:回收木材標準或受控制的木材標準。
● Lenzing is using partly non-certified wood, which underlies the regulations for
controlled wood. This input has to be checked carefully if it fulfills criteria for controlled
wood, and it is our responsibility to verify the stated properties.
蘭精使用部分符合受控木材規範的基礎的非認證木材,如果輸入符合受控木材的標準,則必須仔細檢查,
並且我們有責任驗證所述屬性。
● It is our policy, not to process any uncontrolled wood quantities in our processes
我們的政策是,不要在我們的生產流程中處理任何不受控制的木材數量

Alternative cellulose sources
.
Many sources from annual plants are only available in
the harvesting season and difficult to store for year-
round supply.
Bamboo:
Environmental profile of growing bamboo on a large
scale appears not generally to be satisfactory.
Use of aggressive chemicals and waste issues
Cotton linters
Requires a pulping process using substantial amounts
of chemicals and energy to make dissolving pulp.
As most cotton linters pulp facilities are not up to state
of the art, resource use and emissions as well as
waste can be high for cotton linters pulp.
Several Lenzing studies on non-wood
sources (annual plants, straw, bamboo) over
the last decades
Critical issues:
Availability - Volumes - Quality

Lenzing‘s biorefineries
Highly efficient use of the raw material wood at the Lenzing Group‘s biorefineries
30.04.2018 - 42 www.lenzing.com
Lenzing‘s biorefinery concept
30.04.2018 - 43 www.lenzing.com
The biorefinery concept of the Lenzing Group
100 percent of wood constituents are used to produce fibers, biobased chemicals, and bioenergy
maximum value creation from an economic and environmental perspective.
The key principles of Lenzing’s biorefinery concept are:
● Cascading wood use and circular economy
● Use wood and its constituents as substitutes for oil-based products (recarbonization).
● Use wood constituents multiple times along the value chain.
● Produce biobased chemicals, such as acetic acid, furfural and xylose, to help increase the total
material yield from wood as well as value creation.
● Recover and reuse process chemicals, which is a key contributor to sustainable success and
profitability.
● Create useful products that are recyclable and therefore bind CO2 as long as possible.
30.04.2018 - 44 www.lenzing.com
Production process of TENCEL™ Lyocell fibers
● Lower consumption of chemicals and raw
materials.
● Closed loops result in very low emissions
to the environment.
● Economically viable process: Solvent
recovery rates surpassing 99 percent.
Process water recycling.
● Very low amount of waste generated
during the production process.
30.04.2018 - 45 www.lenzing.com
Production process of LENZING™ Viscose fibers
● Produced in a chemical-
technological process that
involves multiple steps
● Sulfur-containing gases generated
during spinning are collected and
recovered once again in the
purest form for reuse.
● The co-product sodium sulfate is
recovered and sold.

TENCEL™ Lyocell fibers: lower environmental impact
● Higg MSI™1: Score refers to
environmental impacts
● Low scores = better, high scores =
worse
● MSI score1 for TENCEL™ Lyocell fibers
several times lower than for generic
viscose and conventional cotton.
● Much lower impact on water scarcity of
TENCEL™ Lyocell fibers compared to
conventional cotton.
