Stora Enso has opened Europe’s largest wood fibre-based biocomposite plant. Stora Enso’s investment of Euro 12 million in a biocomposite plant is part of the company’s ongoing process of becoming a renewable materials company.
The company’s biocomposites, DuraSense™ by Stora Enso, make it possible to reduce the consumption of plastic by up to 60% and replace it with renewable wood fibre.
“Biocomposites are another step towards replacing fossil-based materials. There is great potential for these renewable materials, so we are delighted to be opening Europe’s largest wood fibre-based biocomposite plant today,” says Karl-Henrik Sundström, CEO of Stora Enso.
Part of the bioeconomy, Stora Enso is a leading provider of renewable solutions in packaging, biomaterials, wooden constructions and paper globally.
