The Lenzing Group, the world's largest provider of wood-based speciality fibers, has completed a major lyocell expansion project in Thailand.

The firm stated in a statement that the new plant, the world's largest of its kind with a nameplate capacity of 100,000 tonnes per year, began production on time and would help the company fulfill rising customer demand for TENCELTM-branded lyocell fibers even better.

Recruiting and onboarding new staff, in particular, have proven effective. This effort required around € 400 million in capital expenditures (CAPEX). "We are quite proud of this accomplishment.
