Tissue Making Days
In 2022 we celebrated the 20th Tissue Making Conference, exclusively for tissue makers, by taking the event on tour visiting three continents - Europe, North- and South America.
Decarbonizing the tissue industry -
a joint effort
We live in a challenging and unpredictable world where the business environment is changing rapidly. There's a strong need to find ways to operate in a landscape of escalating costs, strengthened legal demands and increasing consumer requirements. Decarbonization is currently on top of everyone's mind and will be for a long time. But this is not a one man show, or a one company show - to make a difference we need to work together.
