Svenska Cellulosa Aktiebolaget SCA (publ) is a Swedish forest products company operating across Sweden, Germany, the United States, the United Kingdom, the rest of Europe, and Asia. Its business is organized into five segments: Forest, Wood, Pulp, Containerboard, and Renewable Energy. As a vertically integrated forest industry operator, SCA manages large tracts of forest land in addition to processing timber into downstream products, a structure common among major Nordic pulp-and-paper groups classified under the GICS Materials / Forest Products sub-industry.
The company produces sawn timber and wood solutions for industrial buildings and merchants, bleached softwood kraft pulp and chemical thermomechanical pulp, kraftliner-based packaging for applications ranging from consumer durables to fruit, vegetables, and frozen food, as well as wood pellets and both solid and liquid biofuels. It also offers logistics services, including RoRo vessel forwarding, container express, and road and rail transport, and supplies green products such as tall oil, turpentine, district heating, and green electricity.
In addition to manufacturing, SCA is involved in forest land management and harvesting, the sourcing and transport of roundwood, hunting and fishing rights on its lands, and wind power generation. The company exports its products internationally and was incorporated in 1915, with its headquarters in Sundsvall, Sweden.
- Global pulp prices decline on weaker demand and oversupply
- Sawn timber margins pressured by softer European construction activity
- Containerboard demand grows on e-commerce and sustainable packaging volumes
- Renewable energy segment expands with wind power and pellet capacity investments
