Norske Skog: Increased packaging paper deliveries

Norske Skog reported an EBITDA of NOK 612 million in the first quarter of 2025 up from NOK 33 million in the previous quarter, mainly due to the final insurance settlement of NOK 560 million at Norske Skog Saugbrugs. Norske Skog continued to increase the market share for both publication paper and packaging paper in the quarter, despite continued pressure on utilisation rates and profitability in the industry.

“Containerboard production at Norske Skog Golbey will start in about one week, marking the completion of a significant investment project for the group. This EUR 320 million investment will be a major milestone in the group’s transformation from a pure publication paper producer to also become a packaging paper supplier. With this large and modern production line, fully based on recycled fibre, we will increase our total delivery capacity by more than 35% and vastly enhance our ability to serve the growing demand for containerboard,” says Geir Drangsland, CEO of Norske Skog.
