SCA is organized in five business areas: Forest, Wood, Containerboard, Pulp and Renewable Energy. The supporting unit is Sourcing & Logistics.
The core of SCA's business is the forest, 2.6 million hectares in northern Sweden. Around this unique resource, we have built a well-developed value chain based on renewable raw material from our own and others' forests.
SCA's business area Forest manage SCA's forest holdings of 2.6 million hectares in northern Sweden and 60.000 hectares in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. Our foresty operation is responsible for silviculture, fellings and other forestry management in order to supply our sawmills and industries with raw material.
SCA Skog (Forest) are responsible for the forestry management of SCA's extensive forest holdings. Our operations manage the forest, all fellings and wood purchasing in order to supply our industries with raw material. We have 450 employees.
Our responsible forestry combines high production of valuable renewable raw material with extensive consideration to the forest's other values – biodiversity, reindeer husbandry, ancient and cultural remains, experiences and much more.
At our tree nurseries Bogrundet and Wifstamon, we lay the foundation for the next generation of forests. Every year we grow and deliver over 100 million forest seedlings with documented good plant vigor. The plants are used both in our own forest and by other forest owners.
We manufacture solid wood products for the home improvement & building materials sectors and also for the wood industry. Our products, made of high quality raw materials from northern Sweden, are manufactured in Sweden and are used all over the world.
