Lecta’s steady progress towards its 2030 sustainability targets

Lecta formalized its ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) strategy as a key pillar of our business strategy for the future in 2022. As part of this strategy, we set ambitious targets for 2030 and defined key performance indicators (KPI’s) for our work and progress in this area, linked to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s).

Determined to meet this challenge and in line with its information transparency policy, Lecta regularly monitors its progress at a Group level and publishes its consolidated ESG performance results on an annual basis.

As reflected in our latest Sustainability Report, 2023 was a good year in terms of progress towards many of our ESG objectives, especially those related to the environment. Both the organizational carbon footprint (OCF) and Lecta’s product carbon footprint (PCF) have decreased yearly since 2021.

Ahlstrom-Munksjö reactivates strategic review of its Decor business

Ahlstrom-Munksjö is exploring strategic options for its Decor business, including the possibility of divesting the business. The review process, first announced on September 17, 2019, has been impacted by the Covid-19 outbreak. In 2020, the Decor business saw strong customer demand with tailwinds from increased consumer spending on furniture and domestic refurbishments as a consequence of structural changes related to working from home accelerated by the Covid-19 pandemic. For the full year, comparable EBITDA increased, partly driven by higher raw material efficiency, and reached 14% of sales in the fourth quarter. In the past months, Ahlstrom-Munksjö has progressed with the carve-out of Decor with the objective of enabling the business to operate as a stand-alone entity. Decor has also been discussing opportunities for partnering with leading Chinese suppliers to create a more global leader with strong presence in Europe, South America and Asia.

A revolutionary bio-based furniture board, joint development by Koskisen and Stora Enso

Koskisen is a Finnish wood industry company producing sawn timber and panel products, such as birch plywood, furniture, and construction boards made of chip board. Koskisen uses Stora Enso’s bio-based binder, NeoLigno® by Stora Enso, to replace fossil-based resins used in furniture boards. Both the furniture board raw material and the binder are made of wood and sourced from the production process flows of both companies. This results in all raw materials of the Zero Furniture Board being bio-based.
