The genesis
fibres from nature | fibre of choice benefits | the perfect blend

"Nature is the genesis of all that surrounds us, therefore, what other than nature could be the origin of Birla Cellulose."

Nature is the source of Birla Cellulose and herein lies the inspiration of our logo.

'Fibres from Nature' is our theme and our message:
Leaves fall and grow all over again, they are a renewable resource of nature. Birla Cellulose is much like these leaves and is made from the same trees. The floating leaves symbolise the key characteristics of Birla Cellulose which are "comfort and lightness". The vibrant green indicates that Birla Cellulose can take on vibrant colours. The circle signifies the cycle of nature and sustainability.

Nature remains the underlying theme for all our brands:

Viscose is symbolised by the fresh green of summer
Modal is symbolised by the burnt orange of autumn
Excel is symbolised by the deep pink of spring

Birla Cellulose - Fibres from Nature

Contributing to a green world

Preserving our environment has always been the inspiration behind Birla Cellulose. It has successfully achieved this goal through the following initiatives:

Nurturing and building the green cover

Over a million plantlets are being produced from identified superior clones for development of clonal orchards and plantations.

   

Land conservation

Efforts are on to encourage tree-farming practice on marginal, sub - marginal and fallow lands to the best advantage of the country. The yield of Viscose is seven times that of cotton for the same land area. Thus significantly contributing to conservation of land, and reaping maximum results from this limited resource.
   

Water conservation

Birla Cellulose Viscose is highly environment friendly. Every kilogram of viscose produced saves 200 buckets of water when compared to cotton. Thus it preserves one of the most valuable natural resources.
   

Zinc free product

Results in manifold benefits through the value chain due to the unique cross section.

   

Process friendliness

The process being followed for production is environment friendly and green due to the following advantages:

Non toxic effluent as a result of replacement of zinc by alum

Less solid waste generation due to reduced lime consumption

Reduced risk of fouling biological microorganism in reactor

   

SpunShades

This variant is environment friendly and results in conservation of water throughout the value chain. It is Okeo Tex certified, i.e. it meets the ecological requirements set for baby articles.
