Forests
Over 75% of the forestland, or 2 million hectares, is used for active forestry, of which approximately 5% is excluded from felling in order to preserve the natural values of the forest. The remainder comprises areas with low timber production.
The forest is managed on a long-term basis and provides the base of Companys raw material integration. Residual products from felling, such as branches and tops, are being used increasingly for production of renewable energy. A pilot project is also under way using stumps as an energy raw material.
Companys forests are managed to sustainably yield valuable wood raw material, while the forests nature qualities are preserved. Companys forestry is managed according to the demanding standard of Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) for responsible forest manage
