Cellulose fiber is a most valuable global asset
Cellulose fiber is one of the most valuable resources on the planet today. It forms raw material for paper for information distribution and learning; it creates packaging material that protects and saves food; it improves hygiene and sanitation, enabling better health for all people.

At the same time, it is a renewable material, which, when growing in well-managed forests or plantations, is an asset to the environment.

As the standard of living and global consumption of paper products rises, efficient use of the fiber and recycling become increasingly important for reducing production costs, fully utilizing the valuable fiber and supporting sustainable forestry. Paper chemistry presents a great potential for a greener paper industry, which will have an important role in a sustainable society.

Eka Chemicals is committed to minimizing impact on the environment and using natural resources responsibly. Through our engagement in the pulp and paper industry, we are committed to working with customers who follow the practices, laws and guidelines of the forestry industry in the countries they operate. We are committed to working with partners who source fiber raw material from environmentally and socially responsible sources. We understand that environmental demands are increasing and that we and our partners need to meet new standards and minimize any negative environmental and social impact.
