Pulp

Södra is one of the world’s leading producers of market pulp. Most of the raw materials for our pulp come from forests owned by Södra’s members; who are mainly small farmers in southern Sweden.

We make pulp from softwood and hardwood, including eucalyptus. Softwood pulp (long fibre) makes up 80 per cent of our total production and hardwood pulp the remaining 20 per cent. Long-fibre pulp is used primarily as a reinforcement pulp (for strength) while short-fibre pulp is used to give paper good printability.
