Edelweiss means “the manufacturing process of the Lenzing Modal”, which is carbon-neutral and the most environmental-friendly fibers without the use of chemical softening agents.
In addition, energy & by-products are recycled and preserved because the raw materials, pulps and Lenzing Modal are produced in the same country, Austria.
