Loggers happy about dry autumn - "This autumn we can cut trees from locations that we couldn't access last year"
A year ago logging companies had problems with forest roads that were softened by rainy weather, but this year the dry weather is providing good conditions for logging. Stora Enso forest director Janne Partanen says that the wood trade is going well and he expects November to be very active. There is demand for all types of wood. The company is particularly interested in locations that can be harvested outside the winter season. Stora Enso is prepared for challenging weather conditions with more careful planning that shortens the distances travelled by forest tractors.

Stora Enso acquires Swedish cellulose technology company
Stora Enso has increased its ownership up to 100% in the Sweden-based company Cellutech AB. The company specialises in the development of new materials and applications based on cellulose, micro-fibrillated cellulose (MFC) and other wood-based components.
The acquisition of Cellutech supports Stora Enso’s vision of replacing fossil-based materials with renewable ones originating from wood. The acquired company works, among others, in the areas of foams for packaging and hydroponics where the markets are continuously growing. Cellulosic foams can, for example, be used in packaging to replace polystyrenes which are the most widely used plastics.
