SKJERN PAPER
SUSTAINABILITY
UN Global Goals Skjern Paper complies with a number of the UN Global Goals for sustainable development, but we would like to highlight two Global Goals which are of high importance to us:
7. Affordable and clean energy By supplying waste heat to Skjern’s homes we contribute to ensuring access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all. Our own boiler plant uses as large a share of biofuels (wood chips) as possible, thereby contributing to the green transition.
12. Responsible consumption and production Being a recycler, Skjern Paper contributes substantially to ensuring responsible consumption and production. By gradually increasing the production capacity for recycled fibres we comply with this requirement. By recovering almost all waste and bringing bio-bottom ash from our wood chip boiler back to the woods we contribute to a responsible management of waste in the entire life cycle.
Skjern Paper is an environmentally optimised, energy-friendly, and social responsible company which should be considered as one of the most sustainable paper mills in the world. Focused efforts over many years with ambitious objectives have led to substantial improvements.
