Our Conviction

Sustainability at Getzner Textil

To us, sustainability means taking responsibility every day – for our employees, customers, partners and the environment. We continuously develop new ideas and solutions to ensure the responsible use of energy, water and raw materials.

Our measures

100 per cent renewable electricity at all Austrian sites 
70 per cent reduction in fresh caustic soda requirements through caustic recovery
Expansion of photovoltaic capacity
Feed-in of surplus waste heat into the local district heating network
Continuous increase in heat recovery through process optimisation
Reduction of fossil fuel consumption
Wastewater flue gas neutralisation to reduce emissions
Feeding electricity from our own hydropower into the regional grid

Water Management

Water is an essential component of many production steps at the Bludenz site, from yarn dyeing and weaving to finishing. As we operate within a designated water protection area, we handle this resource with particular care. Process water and drinking water are supplied through two of our own well systems, allowing us to conserve external water sources while ensuring consistently high water quality.

Giving Back to Society

 Social responsibility is an integral part of our corporate culture. We support people in need, promote development projects such as the construction of schools and healthcare facilities in Africa, and regularly contribute to charitable organizations. Through our sponsorship of clubs and institutions, we also make an active contribution to social and community life in our region.
