Competitive fibre from sustainable sources
Competitive fibre is a key factor in Stora Enso's strategy. The aim is to have access to the most competitive fibre from socially and environmentally sound sources. Sawmilling will be instrumental in strengthening Stora Enso's position in competitive fibre sourcing. The amount of recovered fibre will be increased. The production of the new newsprint production line in Langerbrugge will, for example, be based on recovered paper. This investment will bring total usage of recovered fibre to 2.8 million tonnes. In North America, internal pulp integration will be increased. Besides the traditional northern hemisphere long and short fibres, Stora Enso is also involved in producing short fibre in fast-growing southern hemisphere plantations. As planned, a decision will be taken before the end of 2002 on the Veracel pulp project in Brazil.
