Well-managed forests
Business area Forest takes care of SCA's large forest holdings. We have extensive experience in caring for and cultivating the forest. Our forests are managed long-term with the ambition to both produce more valuable raw materials and to preserve and develop the forest's other values. We also buys timber from private forest owners and offer them a broad variation of forestry services for profitable and sustainable forestry.

SCA's responsible forestry
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.
Welcome to our forests
Everyone is welcome to our forests. Come and hike, pick berries and mushrooms or simply enjoy the calm atmosphere of the forest.
Our tree nurseries - for a new forest
SCA's plant operation NorrPlant lay the foundation for the next generation forest. Every year, around 100 million seedlings see the light of day on our own "forest nursery". Plants that grow into trees, bind carbon dioxide and form the forests of the future. Follow the development from seed to plant.

SCA donates boilers to Ukraine
SCA and Bogrundet’s tree nursery are donating seven large hot air boilers to Ukraine, where the need for flexible heating solutions is significant. The donation is made possible thanks to SCA replacing the greenhouses’ oil-based heating system with a pellet-driven facility. “It feels good that the equipment we no longer need can now make a difference in war-torn Ukraine,” says Urban Rosdahl, Maintenance Manager at Bogrundet.
Positive changes after wetland restoration
New wetland species along with a wetter mire. These are some of the changes observed following SCA’s restoration of Stentjärnsmyren in Medelpad, according to an inventory conducted by BirdLife Medelpad. "It’s cautiously positive signs, even though we can’t say that it’s entirely a result of the restoration," says Bengt Allberg, BirdLife Medelpad.
Good for the bird fauna after SCA’s actions
Many more birds and several new species. That is the result five years after SCA implemented measures to promote bird fauna in a larger area of deciduous forest in western Medelpad. This is demonstrated by the survey conducted by BirdLife Medelpad. "The number of species and individuals has increased by more than 50 percent five years after the actions," says Peter Berglund from BirdLife Medelpad.
Hunting and fishing
Hunting is an important part our forest management. We offer hunting privileges to thousands of hunters each year. We also have a lot of waters for fishing experiences.
