Lenzing

Lenzing, an AT-based company operating in the Textiles (17) sector, has set ambitious climate targets, including reaching net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.

In 2025, Lenzing reported total Scope 1 emissions of approximately 1.15 billion kg CO2e and Scope 2 market-based emissions of approximately 270 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions for the same year were approximately 1.45 billion kg CO2e, with purchased goods and services accounting for the largest portion at about 880 million kg CO2e.

The company is committed to significant emissions reductions, aiming to cut Scope 1 and 2 absolute greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 42% and Scope 3 absolute GHG emissions by 25% by 2030, using 2021 as a baseline. Furthermore, Lenzing has committed to reducing GHG emissions intensity by 50% per tonne of product by 2030 compared to a 2017 baseline for both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. Their Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) also validates a commitment to reduce Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions by 50% per ton of fibre and pulp sold by 2030 from a 2017 base year, and a long-term goal to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 90% by 2050 from a 2021 base year, alongside a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions within the same timeframe.

Lenzing's lyocell facility in Prachinburi, Thailand, is targeted to achieve Scope 1 and 2 carbon neutrality by 2030 through the use of 100% bioenergy, with a medium-term goal of 95% biomass energy by 2027.
