Premium and lightweight fresh fibre paperboards
We focus on high-quality and recyclable fresh fibre board made of renewable wood fibre, which is mainly used in consumer packaging and retail packaging solutions. Good availability of Northern European wood fibre and high self-sufficiency in pulp and energy enable the growth and development of our paperboard business.
Strong position in a growing market
We are a leading producer of folding boxboard and white kraftliners in Europe, and globally the biggest producer of coated white kraftliners. In the USA, we are the largest supplier of folding boxboard. The global demand for paperboards is expected to grow at an annual rate of slightly over 4%. (Source: Smithers Information Ltd.).
Targeted investments for sustainable growth
Population growth, urbanisation and plastic replacement will increase the demand for fibre-based packaging materials in the long term. We respond to this demand with sustainable growth investments and innovative packaging solutions. With mill-specific investments we improve our competitiveness and accelerate our goal of fossil-free production and products by the end of 2030.
Paperboards with low carbon footprint
Our products promote the circular economy and help our customers to reduce the use of plastic. Lightweight paperboards produced resource-efficiently with mainly fossil-free energy enable reduction of the carbon footprint of packaging.
