New wood packaging made with 70% recycled plastic

Timber is exposed to demanding circumstances during storage, loading and transportation. “We have developed a new packaging that consists of 70 percent recycled material, without compromising on quality. SCA Wood will be the first on the market with packaging that has such a high proportion of recycled plastic,” says Tom Rautakorpi, product specialist at Trioworld.

The packaging is manufactured by Trioworld and is estimated to result in 54 percent lower greenhouse gas emissions compared to the same product made from virgin plastic.

“To increase our already significant climate benefit, it is important to gradually reduce the remaining emissions. We have long been looking at what we can do better regarding the packaging, and it is positive that we can now make progress in this area,” says Jerry Larsson, President of SCA Wood.
