Sustainability

Environment

Caring for the environment is of utmost importance to us. Only healthy forests can produce high-quality raw materials for our products.

Our wood procurement is covered by the Iivari Mononen Group’s PEFC Chain of Custody system. We source our timber from as close to our production plants as possible to ensure that emissions from the transportation of timber remain low. We also prefer low-emission options for the transportation of finished products. Certificate scope and validity are available on the Certificates page.

By minimising energy consumption and using as much renewable energy as possible, we are reducing our own greenhouse gas emissions.

Our objective is to achieve 100% carbon neutrality

Our target is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from our own production to achieve 100% carbon neutrality.

Less fossil energy

Fossil energy represents a small share (19%) of our total energy consumption. The use of bark and residue chips from production in heat production at our Höljäkkä and Ilseng plants is a significant factor in the low share of fossil energy. Over the past four years, the share of fossil energy in our total energy consumption has decreased by over 16%.
