biomass
From timber to twig
Taking care of the whole tree – from timber to twig – is the motto of Swedish forestry. That’s why biomaterial from sustainably managed forests is a major resource in our region – a resource ready to be upcycled. 1% of the Swedish forest resource is felled annually and the number of yearly new growth trees exceeds the number of those felled. Consequently, the supply of biomass from sustainably managed forests is increasing and Sweden is committed to leading the transition towards a fully sustainable society.
DID YOU KNOW that 70% of Sweden and 89% of Västernorrland is forest land.
Do you want to be a part of an industrial symbiosis?
We have residual streams just waiting to be upcycled, industry sites ready for development and access to renewable energy. Join us in the green transition!
We know the flow
Our industries ship their goods to all parts of the world. Large volumes of goods also pass through the region on their way to the rest of the world from the mines and the heavy industries further north in Sweden. The Sundsvall logistics park, completed in 2023, is one of Sweden’s most important transport hubs, combining train, road and boat logistics for a flexible offering.
The heart of bioeconomy
The High Coast of Sweden is a global industrial leader in bioeconomy. Investors in bioeconomy in our region benefit from working alongside industry leaders, such as SCA, Mondi, Valmet, Aditya Birla and Metsä. In addition to this, the High Coast Innovation Park gathers startups and researchers in bioeconomy around its newly established test beds in Örnsköldsvik, at the north of our region.
