Protecting the environment  



Reducing impact on the environment is important for everyone’s future. At Metsä Board we minimise waste, re-use rejected board, and optimise logistics.

We have, for example, decreased our fossil CO2 emissions by 51% per tonne from our board mills in 2003 – 2010.

Metsä Board boards can be disposed at the end of their life cycle:

  • 100% recyclable
  • Suitable for incineration
  • Compostable
   From 2003–2010 Metsä Board reduced water emissions significantly:
– Acidification down by 60%
– Eutrophication from waste water reduced by 75%
