• Excellent printability and runnability

• Bioenergy– More than 60% of the energy Metsä Board uses comes from

Benefits of Metsä Board paperboards

Metsä Board’s folding boxboards are

produced from BCTMP or mechanical

pulp, which is used in the middle layer (3)

to make the board bulky and light. The

two outer fibre layers (2 and 4) are made

of chemical pulp, which maximizes the

strength of the board.

Folding boxboard is the stiffest yet lightest

paperboard grade

• Limited availability of high quality fibre – Sustainably harvested high quality fresh forest fibres are a must

– Own state of art chemical, mechanical and BCTMP pulping capacity

vital competitive factors

• Leading global consumer goods companies and corrugated box

manufacturers not willing to change paperboard suppliers

easily in the high-quality segments– High speed packaging lines very quality sensitive

– Requirements for uniform brand look and feel globally

– Sustainability and product safety aspects

• Skilled people and organizations a crucial success factor– High-quality paperboard companies have traditions from several

generations
