First-hand insights into the latest market trends will inspire future developments.
Reducing fossil carbon emissions remains one of the major challenges in the chemical industry. In the field of process chemicals, meaningful contributions can be made by lowering the carbon footprint of products, improving energy efficiency during use, and enabling recycling and circularity. The Fiber & Textile Auxiliaries Division of Zschimmer & Schwarz actively supports this transformation by shifting from fossil-based to renewable raw materials.
In textile bleach, Zschimmer & Schwarz helps to optimize water and energy consumption: The bleach activator OPTAVON LTB shortens processing times, saving both water and energy. The detergent TISSOCYL POW allows effective treatment at temperatures below 80 °C, significantly lowering energy use. In addition, polymer-based coating systems developed by the company’s subsidiary Lefatex support latex-free, recyclable solutions for artificial turf and carpets, offering a smart path to reducing the CO? footprint of the flooring sector.
