Luna is bleached without the use of chlorine chemicals (TCF), is manufactured in a closed process and is based on 100% cellulose fibres. SCA Östrand is certified in accordance with FSC® and PEFC Chain of Custody, which guarantees that the wood raw material comes from well-managed forests.
The outstanding absorption of Luna means oil-based super absorbents (SAP’s) can be eliminated. Luna fulfils the German BfR requirements for paper in contact with food and can fulfil very high standards for product safety.
Product safety is an important quality for Luna, since it is used in both hygiene and food products. Accordingly, product safety tests and compliance with, for example, BfR recommendations (for paper products in contact with food) are a matter of course.
Our well managed forest holdings together with energy-effective processes and optimized transports enable us to reduce our Carbon Footprint. We have developed skilled competence for customer cooperation regarding Carbon Footprint or other questions.
