Stora Enso invests in the carbon neutrality of its Skutskär Mill in Sweden. This Euro 40 million investment takes the next important step towards a climate positive contribution by reducing power consumption and water utilization as well as enabling lowering the use of bleaching chemicals. The mill is already very close to being carbon neutral as it has achieved 99% fossil-free production.
Skutskär Mill is also participating in the EU-funded ACCSESS project where Carbon Dioxide is captured and stored using Bio-CCS technology. The first part of the newly developed process, carbon capture, will be tested on pilot scale at Skutskär Mill. The project will last for four years and pilot trials at Skutskär Mill are planned to start in early 2023.
Stora Enso has an ambitious goal to offer 100% regenerative products and solutions by 2050. As the largest producer of fluff pulp in Europe, Skutskär Mill is paving the road through continuous decarbonization of its operations.
Stora Enso’s Skutskär Mill in eastern Sweden is a modern pulp mill focusing on the production of fluff pulp for absorbent hygiene products such as diapers, other hygiene products and air-laid nonwovens.
