Our Future Is Renewable.
Toward a Successful Future with JRS Plant Fiber Technology
New Ways of Thinking to Address the Challenges of Tomorrow.
With a new way of thinking, we combine innovation, responsibility, and economic success. Together with our customers, we develop solutions that meet the challenges of today and tomorrow. Our goal is to actively shape progress with JRS plant fiber technology and to continuously refine our products and applications. In doing so, we rely on long-term partnerships, forward-thinking, and the conviction that sustainable success stems from continuous improvement. Step by step, we are helping to shape the future. That’s what we mean when we say: JRS – Fibers for Life.
We Keep Raw Material Cycles Flowing.
JRS fiber products are made from plant-based raw materials. Due to their material properties, they are suitable for applications that require biodegradability and compostability. To make efficient use of material streams in production, we rely on wood-based raw materials from PEFC-certified forestry and divert materials from production by-products to other applications.
JRS Transforms Natural Characteristics into Technical Functions.
Nature is always our role model. Every day we learn from it, focusing our research, development and production to make its wide ranging functional characteristics available to the industries as innovative additives and semi-finished products.
“Look deep into nature and then you will understand everything better.”
– Albert Einstein
We Develop Solutions Based on Responsibly Sourced Raw Materials.
Whether it’s grain and fruit fibers, seaweed, or wood and cellulose fibers: JRS fiber products are based on plant-derived raw materials. For wood-based raw materials, we rely on certified supply chains that comply with established standards such as PEFC or FSC. These certifications ensure that the origin and traceability of the materials used meet specific requirements.
This allows us to ensure transparency in procurement and establish a reliable foundation for our applications. In processing, we prioritize the targeted use of materials and the efficient utilization of raw materials. This also includes the reuse of suitable byproducts within our processes. The result is solutions for food, medicine, and industrial products that are designed for long-term performance.
Strong Team for "Sustainability Management".
The new "Sustainability Management" team is focusing on the further expansion of the JRS sustainability strategy and is taking the first steps towards a transparent sustainability assessment with the annual EcoVadis and CDP ratings.
Principles of JRS Environmental Policy
Taking environmental considerations into account is an integral part of our business processes. We are committed to complying with applicable requirements and continuously improving our processes.
Certified Environmental Management System
Our environmental management system at the Rosenberg site is certified to DIN EN ISO 14001. It helps us systematically identify environmental aspects, set goals, and implement appropriate measures.
Certified Energy Management System (EnMS)
Our energy management system at our German locations is certified to DIN EN ISO 50001. It provides the foundation for tracking and evaluating energy consumption and for continuously improving our energy performance.
Renewable raw materials for innovation.
From the Plant to the Function.
Cellulose is nature’s most abundant organic biopolymer—and for JRS, it serves as the starting point for new applications in food, medicine, and industrial products. As a natural component of plant biomass, it is integrated into the biogenic carbon cycle.
We continue to harness this potential in a targeted manner. Through the continuous advancement of our process and plant technology, we optimize the use of energy and materials. Our certified energy management system provides a reliable framework for this. This leads to solutions that we gradually translate into new applications.
