Shaping the Future with Paper and Renewable Energy:
Sustainability as a Corporate Strategy

One of the most important development goals for us revolves around biobased recyclable and biodegradable paper. This will not only help us achieve our own goals, but will also provide our customers with a powerful tool that they can leverage to reach their own sustainability objectives.

As a company with a global reach, we can promote sustainable development along our entire value chain together with all stakeholders. Our suppliers share our high standards
in relation to environmental, social, and ethical principles. Moreover, we are continuously improving the transparency of our supply chain.

Material, energy, and resource efficiency are all subject to continuous improvement. Production waste is always a potential source of secondary raw materials, and we are already using it for this purpose or are developing methods to do so. Our packaging paper is recyclable, providing it with much greater material efficiency than plastic. This way, we make it possible to replace linear value creation with circular value creation.

Back in 2014 already, we set an ambitious goal to produce more renewable energy than we need for paper production by 2030. We are pushing the expansion of renewable energy production forward and further reducing our greenhouse gas emissions through energy efficiency. This way, we are making a positive long-term contribution to climate change mitigation and energy security.

The key to our success is the people who work at our company. This is why our employees’ health and safety take topmost priority and why we are continuously investing in development and advanced training opportunities and programs while proactively promoting diversity. We are an employer for anyone with talent who is able and willing to show commitment and dedication.

We want to achieve sustainable growth for our company through our sustainability goals and the actions derived from them. Success and profit make it possible for us to make the investments we need for sustainable development. In addition, we arrange for independent audits of our sustainability approach, as well as our actions and their results.
