   Award‑Nominated LENZING™ DualWipe Supports Europe’s Shift to Bio‑Based
   Materials

    

     • LENZING™ DualWipe nominated for INDEX™26 Awards as a new
       cellulose‑based, plastic‑free wipe innovation
     • Brussels roundtable highlights the need for bio‑based materials in
       Europe’s industrial transition

    

   Lenzing, April 10, 2026 – The Lenzing Group, a leading global producer of
   regenerated cellulose fibers for the textile and nonwovens industries,
   introduces LENZING™ DualWipe, its latest plastic‑free wipe innovation and
   a nominee for the prestigious INDEX™26 Awards in the “Nonwovens Roll
   Goods” category. The nomination underlines Lenzing’s continued commitment
   to developing scalable, cellulose‑based solutions for applications that
   have traditionally relied on fossil‑based materials.

    

   LENZING™ DualWipe, enabled by Lenzing’s Nonwovens Technology, integrates
   two functional surfaces within a single material: an abrasive side for
   effective removal of dirt and residues, and a soft, highly absorbent side
   for wiping and finishing. DualWipe contains no synthetic fibers, binders
   or finishing chemicals, the wipe eliminates the risk of plastic and
   microplastic shedding typically associated with conventional synthetic
   wipes. Its compatibility with standard converting processes supports broad
   applicability across industrial, professional and household cleaning
   segments. LENZING™ DualWipe thus stands as an example of Lenzing’s
   ambition to link policy objectives for material transformation with
   market‑ready, industrially applicable solutions.

    

   This innovation directly addresses the material demands discussed during a
   high‑level roundtable held in Brussels in early March, organized in
   cooperation with Euractiv, where policymakers, industry representatives
   and experts examined how bio‑based materials can enhance Europe’s economic
   resilience and accelerate the shift toward lower‑carbon, fossil‑reduced
   material systems. The conversations in Brussels highlighted the increasing
   relevance of cellulose‑based innovations as practical enablers of a more
   sustainable European materials landscape.

    

   “Europe has set ambitious goals for industrial transformation. Our
   dialogue in Brussels showed that bio‑based materials are becoming
   increasingly scalable. At Lenzing, we combine policy engagement with
   innovation to help enable this shift,” says Georg Kasperkovitz, Member of
   the Management Board of the Lenzing Group.

    

   The INDEX™26 nomination for DualWipe underlines how Lenzing translates
   these policy discussions into concrete product innovation. “The Brussels
   roundtable highlighted the relevance of cellulosic fibers in reducing
   reliance on fossil-based materials. With innovations like LENZING™
   DualWipe, we translate this into practice by offering a high-performance,
   plastic-free wipe material designed to meet regulatory and consumer
   expectations,” emphasizes Patricia A. Sargeant, Executive Vice President
   Commercial Nonwovens at Lenzing Group.

    

   By combining technological innovation with industrial capabilities and
   active policy engagement, Lenzing continues to advance material solutions
   that support Europe’s sustainability goals while offering better solutions
   for its environment without compromise to consumers. LENZING™ DualWipe
   represents a tangible example of how cellulose‑based technologies can
   offer viable, market‑ready alternatives across the nonwovens sector.
