The project encompasses the Promoter’s research, development and innovative downstream investments (RDI) over a four year period (2005-2008).
The project will support the research activities and technical development within a world-leading European group in forest industry products.
R&D activities will not materially change current R&D practices and will be carried out within existing facilities, making use of existing laboratories and pilot plants; an EIA therefore is not required by EU Directive 97/11/EC. A part of the R&D programme focuses on development of products and processes whose successful application would reduce environmental impact of pulp and paper production.
The promoter is a private company and therefore not bound by EU Directives on procurement.
