Trees and humans
The roots of our partnership go back thousounds of years, trees and humans. We have served one another and enlarged the society in which we both live.
We are driven by the force of the forest
SCA is an important part of society in Sweden, being an important employer with strong ties to the communities in the north where our industries and businesses are located. We create jobs, we develop infrastructure and we turn a renewable natural resource into export revenues. We are committed to creating value as a sustainable business for our shareholders, customers and employees.

We offer packaging paper, pulp, wood products, renewable energy, services for forest owners and efficient transport solutions.
