Teijin Limited has started supplying carbon fibre “Tenax” filament yarns produced in accordance with the mass balance approach. The filament yarns use eco-friendly acrylic nitrile applying a mass balance system, which have the physical properties equivalent to petroleum-based one. Replacing conventional materials with the eco-friendly alternative contributes to reduction of GHG emissions in the lifecycle of products.
