Focus on energy efficiency

As an energy-intensive industry, a critical part of cutting emissions per produced paper ton is to use energy efficiently. In tissue paper making we are e.g. focusing on drying hood development and removal of the water from the paper sheet using the latest technologies.

Case examples

As part of our efforts to improve the energy and production efficiency of our mills, we are exploring the best available technologies (BAT) to improve energy efficiency, among other things. Our aim is to drive the world-class environmental performance in tissue production. The energy roadmap for Metsä Tissue mills is prepared for 2022-2030.

In 2022 we renewed a paper machine at Metsä Tissue’s Mänttä mill. The renewed paper machine will be used to produce fresh fibre-based tissue paper products especially for the Finnish market. Due to the investment energy consumption will reduce around 15 per cent per tonne of paper produced.
