We produce and offer wood-based bioproducts, such as pulp, sawn timber, and biochemicals. Our products are known for their high quality, which is based on the unique characteristics of Nordic wood. We see the infinite potential in Nordic wood, and what we can make from it.
Maximising resource efficiency - we use every part of the tree
From logs and pulpwood to branches and wood chips, at Metsä Fibre we waste nothing. The most valuable part of the tree, the wood log, is used to produce sawn timber. Sections too small in diameter or too crooked or damaged for use as sawn timber are chipped and used in the production of our other bioproducts such as pulp and biochemicals.
During our production processes, side streams are used to obtain valuable biochemicals. Meanwhile, small branches and twigs, bark and sawdust are typically used to generate bioenergy using combustion.
High-quality sustainable pulp
We are the world’s leading producer of bleached softwood market pulp. Our pulp product portfolio is developed in close co-operation with our customers to ensure our offering meets their requirements for fibre characteristics and specific paper properties. Whether you make board, tissue, specialty paper, or printing & writing paper, we can supply pulp that is made to meet your individual needs.
The high quality of our products is based on the solid competence of our personnel and high-quality wood raw material. In-depth fibre expertise is crucial when the goal is to produce exactly the right types of raw materials for various end products.
Sawn timber from sustainably sourced Nordic softwood
We are one of Europe’s largest sawn timber producers, and our sawn timber is produced with close to zero CO2 emissions. We use sustainably sourced Nordic pine and spruce to produce premium softwood sawn timber. Our products are used in, for example, housing and carpentry, the construction industry, the furniture industry and in packaging.
Nordic conifer is known for its high-quality and consistent appearance, as well as its dense grain, lightness and strength. These properties, combined with our efficient production lines, enable us to produce high-quality sawn timber, with precise dimensions and excellent drying results.
Driving innovation with wood-based biochemicals
We are a leading producer of biochemicals derived from Nordic wood. We produce crude tall oil (CTO) and crude sulphate turpentine (CST) as side products of our pulp production. These are used in diverse applications by a variety of industries. They can replace fossil-based products in many industrial processes. These biochemicals can be further processed and used in end-uses ranging from industrial grade performance chemicals to detergents, and even cosmetics and food.
Adding value for our customers
Every customer is important to us. We use our know-how and technological excellence to provide added value to you and your business, sustainably and responsibly. For pulp customers, we have an extensive service portfolio, which extends from technical expertise to digital services, supply chain services and sustainability services. These services are available to help you improve your current business performance and to prepare for future opportunities.
