Sustainability

Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are in the core of our short- and long-term planning and operations. We believe in circular economy and use wooden side-streams to make a better world. Our objective is to have zero carbon footprint in the production process.

By using certified Nordic Forest industry side streams, we upcycle natural material that normally would be used for low value purposes, into sustainable high-value ingredients. The wood we use as raw material is certified and traceable.

Our aim is to minimize the carbon footprint at all stages of production by utilizing environmentally friendly and innovative solutions. For example, wood raw material left over from our production is recycled into bioenergy for the needs of the production plant. Our production plant utilises bio-based heat and electricity. In addition, waste heat from production is utilised to increase energy efficiency by heating production buildings.

We focus on helping our customers and aim to create win-win situation in which all parties succeed and make a positive impact for a sustainable world.
