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.
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.

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.
