Metsä Group SSC

The wise use of resources steers our operations. The utilization of industrial side streams is an important way to improve resource efficiency. Our objective is that by 2030, we utilize 100% of our production side streams. Of all the production, the share of side streams accounts to some 5%. Of this, the utilization rate is currently 93%.

The utilisation of side strams is split up to material use, fertilizers and soil improvement, industrial use and energy. The share of fertiliser use has been increasing constantly during the past five years. At the moment 8% of Metsä Group’s utilised side streams are used as fertilisers or landscaping materials.
