Sustainability is central to Södra's strategy and business model. EPDs provide valuable insights into which parts of our manufacturing processes have the most environmental impact, so we know where to focus our reduction efforts.
We need EPDs because our customers demand climate declarations for buildings. It can be a competitive advantage to hold an EPD, and where applicable, proof that we have a lower environmental impact than our competitors.
EPDs mean we are transparent about our environmental impact, allowing comparisons for both us and others. With a life-cycle perspective, EPDs illustrate a product's environmental impact across the entire value chain.
Our climate impact
Our EPDs mean we can assess how our timber production impacts the climate. We work continually to reduce our environmental impact and deliver sustainable solutions for our customers.
