Easy-to-build: Let's build in wood, for future generations
Let's build in wood, for future generations
There is an urgent need for more schools—at least 15 000 in Europe alone. To find a fast solution, we developed an easy-to-build school kit made of wood.
Building in mass timber reduces emissions, shortens construction time, and improves well-being.
We believe this is the way forward—not only for schools but the entire construction industry too.
One easy-to-build solution. A million possibilities.

This scalable wooden school can be built with a Sylva kit in a matter of a few short weeks.
In a matter of minutes, this school will grow back.
We procure wood only from traceable sources. We source wood from European forests which grow more than they are harvested and is third-party certified (FSC®*, PEFC, or both).
Sylva is produced with only renewable electricity or fossil-free energy. Making Sylva by Stora Enso a name you can trust.
