Nordic Paper is to make further investment at the Bäckhammar mill. This will further improve sustainability performance and strengthen the competitiveness of the plant. An important component of the investment is a new wood room providing for both strategic flexibility in raw material sourcing and efficiency gains in the production. The emissions of dust to air will be reduced by more than two thirds through an installation of a new electrostatic filter.
‘Bäckhammar is a highly competitive production unit. It is also one of the most climate efficient production plants in the global kraft paper industry. With these investments, we further strengthen the competitiveness of the plant at the same time as we improve our environmental performance. The investment decision has been made considering our strong balance sheet and opportunities for organic growth in Bäckhammar in the future,’ said Nordic Paper CEO Anita Sjölander.
At Bäckhammar, Nordic Paper manufactures unbleached kraft papers of different qualities primarily for packaging end uses. The raw material is pulpwood from sustainably managed forests in mid Sweden as well as sawmill chips.
The main market is in Europe but the papers are shipped all over the world.
