We are dedicated to reducing our environmental impact 

Water treatment plant

As with any modern industrial process, pulp, paper and board production has an effect on the environment. That’s why a major priority for us is to reduce the environmental impact of our mills.

Minimising emissions
We minimise emissions to air and water and impact on soil by using advanced control technologies and finding new ways to reuse and recycle waste.

Maximising resource efficiency
We use raw materials, energy and other resources as efficiently as we can. This ‘more with less’ approach reduces both the environmental impacts and our costs.

Environmental targets
We have group level environmental targets in the areas of sulphur (SO2) emissions, carbon dioxide (CO2), process water discharges, Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and waste to landfill. Our mills have certified environmental management systems in place which guarantee continuous improvement against these targets. We report on the environmental performance against the targets every year in our sustainability report.
