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.
