Strategy centers on an integrated value chain, greater value from each tree, high self-sufficiency in wood, energy and logistics, and continued forest acquisitions in Nordic and Baltic regions.
Prioritized investments include the Obbola kraftliner machine, Ortviken CTMP line, wind power, biofuels and forest acquisitions; further opportunities span wood, pulp, containerboard and renewable fuels.
Forest
Forest holdings total 2.7m ha, including 2.1m ha of productive forestland and 277m m³fo of standing volume; holdings cover 6% of Sweden.
In 2025, gross forest growth was 10.9m m³fo, harvesting 6.8m m³fo and annual net standing-volume increase 2.5m m³fo.
Own forests supply ~50% of wood raw material needs; the strategy targets increased growth and harvesting, improved forestry productivity, biodiversity conservation and Nordic and Baltic acquisitions.
