Fiche récapitulative
The project comprises two elements: 1) upgrade and modernisation of an existing pulp mill in Timrå, Central Sweden, and 2) execution of group wide RDI programme.
The proposed investment in the pulp mill, located in an Objective 1 area, is an integral component of the promoter’s supply chain. The RDI component of the project aims at improving and consolidating SCA’s technological leadership.
The pulp mill project is expected to have positive environmental impact due to reduced emissions. The execution of the RDI programme will have no material environmental impact. All national and EU environmental legislation will be respected.
Public procurement rules and regulations do not apply to this private industry project. The promoter carries out competitive international consultations among potential suppliers for goods and services, which is standard practice for this industry.
