Materials
Redefining sustainable materials
Our commitment to innovation starts with the materials we use. We are constantly expanding our portfolio to include environmentally friendly options, such as bio-based, recycled, and renewable materials, all aimed at reducing our environmental footprint. Here’s how we are leading the way in redefining the materials of tomorrow:
PU Foam alternatives
We are exploring bio-polyols derived from renewable sources like castor, pine, and soy, along with foam solutions that incorporate recycled content, such as re-polyols and re-bonded foam, lowering our overall carbon footprint.
Renewable resources
Our materials include bio-based non-woven fabrics and films made from renewable resources like sustainable potatoes, reducing reliance on traditional, finite resources.
Recycled content
By utilizing GRS (Global Recycled Standard) certified fibers, we ensure high-quality recycled materials that promote a circular economy and help minimize waste.
CSR
Caring for people and the planet
At Texla, sustainability is about more than just materials – it’s about taking responsibility at every level. We are committed to minimizing our environmental impact and upholding the highest ethical standards across our partners. Our efforts were recognized with the EcoVadis Silver Medal in 2023, reflecting our dedication to responsible business practices.
Ethical standards
We prioritize the health, safety, and well-being of both our employees and the planet. Our Code of Conduct aligns with international standards, ensuring that human rights and ethical business practices are upheld throughout our supply chain and operations.
Processes
Making our processes more sustainable
Innovation isn’t limited to our materials; we are constantly refining our processes to be more energy-efficient and waste-conscious, with a focus on continuous improvement.
Energy efficiency
Many of our production units are now powered by solar energy, reducing our reliance on non-renewable resources and lowering greenhouse gas emissions.
Waste reduction
We have action plans in place to minimize waste and are on track to have all units ISO 14001-certified by the end of 2024.
Emission targets
We have set ambitious goals to reduce CO2 emissions by 25% by 2025 and 50% by 2030, tracking our progress through established frameworks like the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, CDP submissions and other sustainability platforms.
Products
Designing for longevity and sustainability
Our commitment to sustainability extends to the very design of our products. Through Life Cycle Assessments (LCA), we assess environmental impacts at each stage of a product’s life cycle. Additionally, we embrace the "Easy Divorce" concept, ensuring that materials can be easily separated for recycling, promoting a circular economy. By converting Texla’s post-industrial waste into new products, we reduce reliance on virgin resources and contribute to a more sustainable future.
