Sustainability

We understand sustainability as affirmative actions to minimise negative impact on the environment and to create positive environmental, social and/or economic developments in the activities of the nonwovens industry. 

EDANA developed a Sustainability Vision giving clear insight into the priority topics on sustainability for our industry.

EDANA initiates and supports efforts throughout the industry to achieve higher levels of environmental, social and economic sustainability. On a day-to-day basis, EDANA supports its member companies by monitoring policy developments that directly or indirectly impact industry, by raising awareness among member companies, by developing industry positions and guidelines and by conducting campaigns.

We also organise the EDANA Sustainability Forum which covers all relevant sustainability topics for the nonwovens industry, including natural raw materials, consumer expectations, circularity, bioeconomy, and more.
