Lenzing Chinese Production Back to Full Capacity

Fiber producer had scaled back operations due to raw material supply shortages linked to coronavirus epidemic

02.21.20

Following its temporary cutting back of production at the Nanjing site in China, Lenzing has now once again ramped up operations on all production lines to reach full capacity.

Recently supply shortages of important raw materials arose as a result of intense transport controls in connection with the current situation surrounding the coronavirus. For this reason, output from two production lines was scaled back for a short time. All production lines are now fully operational again after the successful resumption of the required supplies to the manufacturing facility.
