Description: SCA-B Svenska Cellulosa

Svenska Cellulosa Aktiebolaget SCA (publ) is a Swedish forest products company operating across five segments: Forest, Wood, Pulp, Containerboard, and Renewable Energy. The company manages forest land and produces a wide range of products including sawn timber, wood solutions for construction and merchants, bleached softwood kraft pulp and chemical thermomechanical pulp, kraftliner packaging materials, wood pellets, and both solid and liquid biofuels. Additional operations include timber sourcing and transportation, logistics services via RoRo vessels, container, road, and rail, as well as wind power generation and green electricity production.

As a major player in the GICS Forest Products sub-industry, SCA operates a vertically integrated value chain spanning from forest management and harvesting to the production of sawn wood, pulp, packaging paper, and renewable energy. The company also monetizes its forest holdings through ancillary activities such as hunting and fishing privileges, and produces green biochemical byproducts including tall oil and turpentine. Incorporated in 1915 and headquartered in Sundsvall, Sweden, SCA exports its products internationally across Europe, North America, and Asia.

Headlines to Watch Out For
  • Containerboard and kraftliner pricing weakens on softer European demand
  • Sawn wood margins pressured by falling Nordic timber prices
  • Pulp segment earnings fall as global pulp prices normalize lower
