Collaboration for Sustainable Development of Viscose (CV) will promote their CV Roadmap

Leading global viscose producers in China have come together to lead the industry into a new era of sustainable development. Together, they have agreed to form the Collaboration for Sustainable Development of Viscose (CV) to promote the sustainable sourcing and responsible production of viscose.

CV is formed by 10 of China’s biggest viscose fibre producers – collectively representing over 50% of the world’s viscose staple fibre production – in partnership with two trade associations. This self-regulating initiative will see its members adopt a much-needed sustainability roadmap for the viscose industry, and aims to help the viscose industry adopt and implement sustainability best practices. Participating producers pledge to improve and benchmark their sourcing and manufacturing practices against a set of credible, practical and widely accepted sustainability standards.

This year, CV will make its first presence at the fair at booth 5.2-E14 in All About Sustainability. The booth will showcase the CV background, objectives, members, CV Roadmap and more.
