Frequently asked questions
Can Södra’s tall oil help reduce the climate impact of fuels? | |
Yes, every year Södra’s crude tall oil helps reduce the biofuel industry’s climate impact by around 90,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide. That’s equivalent to driving to the sun and back - twice. | |
How can biomethanol from Södra make a difference? | |
Our biomethanol can significantly reduce your carbon footprint - by up to 99%. The product is ISCC-certified, meaning its production is environmentally, socially, and economically sustainable. That’s why biomethanol is a key product when it comes to building a more future with low climate footprint. | |
What does ‘biochemical’ mean? | |
Biochemicals are chemical substances derived from biological sources, such as plants, trees or microorganisms. They are used, for example, in industries such as biofuels, bioplastics, and pharmaceuticals, and contribute to sustainable development as alternatives to fossil-based products. |

The forest’s renewable all-rounder
Liquid Forest® tall oil is a quiet environmental hero, found all around us. In biochemical production, tall oil plays a key role in significantly reducing carbon dioxide emissions. As an additive in countless everyday products, it replaces a wide range of fossil-based substances.

Biomethanol – an alternative to fossil-based chemicals
Biomethanol is a renewable fuel for the future, but also an essential base chemical. Since our major investment in industrial biomethanol production, it has become a genuine alternative to fossil-based solutions.
