At present, the issue of workers' occupational safety has continuously drawn extensive social attention, driving the growth in demand for flame-retardant textiles in fields such as occupational protective clothing, general civilian clothing, and home textiles. Flame-retardant textiles and raw materials are now facing unprecedented development opportunities.
From April 15th to 17th, the 108th China International Labor Protection Products Fair and the 2025 China International Occupational Safety and Health Industry Expo were held as scheduled in Shanghai. Lenzing Group made a dazzling appearance with its intelligent solutions derived from plant ecology, highlighting the innovative application of Lenzing ™ flame-retardant fibers in protective clothing, safeguarding safe production and building a solid barrier for the safety protection of firefighters and rescue personnel as well as industrial workers.
During the exhibition, Oliver Spoecker, the Global Business Director of Lenzing Group's Protective Clothing and Workwear Division, along with the heads of the two business regions of Lenzing Group's Protective Clothing and Workwear division - Alexander Gstettner, Senior Business Development Manager for Europe, and Muhammad Khurram, Business Development Manager for the Middle East. Jointly attending the labor protection exhibition, during which there was in-depth interaction and communication with Chinese customers, fully demonstrating the strategic emphasis and determination of the Lenzing ™FR team to deeply cultivate the Chinese market.
Intelligent solutions focus, highlighting R&D capabilities
As a pioneer and practitioner of flame-retardant cellulose fiber solutions, Lenzing Group has always regarded safety, comfort and environmental protection as the core goals of product research and development. While pursuing outstanding fire resistance performance, we constantly explore innovative technologies to achieve sustainable development of our products. The Lenzing ™FR fiber on display this time, which is a flame-retardant fiber, is a perfect interpretation of this concept. It adopts a sustainable development approach based on the Modal production process, and it produces cellulose fibers that are inherently flame-retardant, in line with the strict definition of "essentially flame-retardant and fire-resistant fibers" by the European Synthetic Fibers Association (CIRFS).
At the exhibition, Lenzing ™ flame-retardant fibers, with their dual characteristics of "flame-retardant technology" and "sourced from natural wood sources", have overturned the environmental limitations of traditional protective materials with their biodegradability, becoming the focus of attention for professional visitors. In front of the booth, visitors came in an endless stream. They stopped to take a closer look and asked questions enthusiastically. The Lenzing team engaged in in-depth exchanges with the audience with a professional attitude, freely expressing their views on topics such as the cutting-edge technologies and development trends in the field of security protection, and jointly exploring the cutting-edge technologies and development trends in the field of security protection
Flame-retardant fibers empower and facilitate industry upgrading
Flame-retardant clothing, as a key component of the enterprise workwear system, the selection of protective materials is of vital significance. At present, flame-retardant fabrics on the market can mainly be classified into two categories: finishing type and intrinsic flame-retardant type. As one of the representatives of intrinsic flame-retardant fibers, Lenzing ™ flame-retardant fibers not only significantly enhance the protective effect of blended fabrics but also achieve a substantial leap in comfort. Especially in high-temperature environments, its superior air permeability can effectively reduce heat stress responses and create a more pleasant working environment for workers.
Not only that, Lenzing ™ flame-retardant fibers, with their environmentally friendly production processes and protective performance, have become the ideal choice for many industries. At present, this product has been widely applied in high-risk fields such as fire protection, the military, oil and gas, metal smelting, racing equipment, and arc protection.
With the continuous establishment and improvement of the new standard system in China's safety protection industry, the industry is embracing unprecedented development opportunities. Oliver Spoecker, the global business director of Lenzing Group's Protective Clothing and Workwear Division, said: The demand for high-quality protective products in the Chinese market continues to grow. Lenzing Group also attaches great importance to in-depth cooperation with Chinese customers, ranging from spinning mills, fabric producers, traders and garment producers, including end-users and consumers, with the aim of empowering the entire industrial value chain. We understand the demands of each link and strictly adhere to the principle of sustainable development. This is precisely why Lenzing ™ flame-retardant fibers have been favored by many industry professionals and consumers over the years.
In the future, Lenzing Group will continue to focus on sustainable solutions for flame-retardant cellulose fibers and constantly launch more innovative products that meet market demands and industry development trends. At the same time, we should strengthen cooperation with industry partners, jointly promote technological innovation and application expansion of protective materials, and contribute to the high-quality development of China's safety protection industry.
