Our wood procurement organisation acquires all the wood used by Metsä Group, mainly from its owner-members in Finland. We make approximately 30,000 wood trade agreements annually.
In addition to Finland, we also procure wood from other parts of Northern and Central Europe.
A comprehensive network of our contract entrepreneurs is responsible for wood harvesting and transportation. All the wood we purchase is traceable, and the majority of it comes from certified forests: in 2024, 93 percent of the wood we acquired was certified according to PEFC (PEFC/02-31-03) or FSC® (FSC-C014476).
Each wood trade is handled by a designated forest expert who has the best expertise and understanding of what should be done in the forest. We invest in the development of sustainable forest management methods and digital services aimed at forest owners.
