Since 2005, about 60 publicly traded Austrian companies are analyzed each year on the basis of about 100 environmental and social criteria. The best companies are accepted for listing in the VÖNIX index (VBV Austrian Sustainability Index) for a period one year.
Lenzing belongs to this group of companies for the 9th straight time, and was also given a very good rating again this year.
In the 2013/14 index year, the performance of the VÖNIX index was reflected in a 10.6% gain in value, thus 3.6 percentage points lower than the ATX Prime. A total of 22 stocks (alphabetically listed) will be included in the VÖNIX 2014/15 index.
