Our commitments

At Metsä Tissue, we are committed to promoting sustainable development and minimising our environmental impact. We are committed to the UN Global Compact and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which encompass ten principles under four main categories: Human Rights, Labour, Environment, and Anti-Corruption.

Our initiatives include ensuring that all wood raw materials come from sustainably managed forests, reducing our carbon footprint through renewable energy and energy efficiency actions, increasing the use of recycled plastics in packaging, and minimising waste. We also work to reduce water consumption and wastewater is treated efficiently. At the same time, we are committed to promoting diversity, equality and inclusion in our workplace.
