Metsä Board is a manufacturing company active in the paper and pulp industry. The company is a manufacturer of cartons made of forest fiber. The products are used for consumer and food products. In addition to the production of cartons, the company offers services related to technical analysis and design development. The company is most active in the European market. Metsä Board´s head office is located in Espoo, Finland.

publish.ne.cision.com              ViewReleaseInStandardHtml                              UPM is launching UPM Circular Renewable Black™ pigment, a groundbreaking innovation that redefines the role of black color in sustainable packaging. UPM Circular Renewable Black is the world’s first bio-based and carbon-negative\[1\] pigment that can be identified by near-infrared (NIR) radiation. It enables premium packaging that combines top-tier design, full recyclability, and strong, responsible performance. Black packaging has long been considered a challenge for recycling, as fossil-based carbon black prevents optical sorting in NIR systems, making packaging virtually invisible in recycling facilities. UPM Circular Renewable Black changes the situation. The pigment is made from renewable lignin and is certified according to independent certification systems (FSC\[2\], PEFC\[3\], ISCC Plus). The pigment offers an iconic deep black shade, full NIR detectability, and a carbon-negative footprint, enabling brands to adopt circular economy-supporting and climate-positive packaging solutions. UPM Circular Renewable Black is part of UPM’s portfolio of carbon-negative solutions, which will be produced at the company’s 1.3 billion euro biochemicals plant in Leuna, Germany. The plant is Europe’s largest industrial-scale investment in biochemical production. It converts sustainably sourced hardwood into next-generation biochemicals and accelerates the transition from fossil-based solutions to renewable materials across various industries.

As a forest owner, I wouldn’t be overly concerned about this UPM situation. Let’s hypothetically assume that the new JV would close the Kirkniemi paper mill, meaning a capacity reduction of 575,000 tons per year. This multiplied by 3, meaning a reduction in raw wood demand of 1,725,000 cubic meters of wood per year. However, that’s only about 5% of fiberwood consumption in Finland. Of course, it would affect the price of raw wood, but less than the imported wood brought from Russia back in the day.

Comparing the change over a 10-year period, production has decreased and revenue has increased: UPM revenue 2024: 10.3 billion (2014: 9.9) Products 2024: 10.1 Mt + 1.7 Mm3 (2014: 13 Mt + 2.1 Mm3) Sources: https://www.upm.com/siteassets/investors/reports-and-presentations/2024/upm-vuosikertomus-2024.pdf and https://www.upm.com/siteassets/investors/reports-and-presentations/2014/upm_vuosikertomus_2014.pdf If one disregards those tonnes and cubic meters and instead looks at their relative figures, revenue has increased by 33% in ten years. However, inflation has eroded 26% of that (EUR Inflation Calculator - Euro (2014-2025)). Still, 7% better. Are the chosen years the best possible for comparison, as revenue and production vary? It would be nice to see a similar comparison for other companies as well.

My memory of the early 2010s is different. I remember Pesonen saying directly that newsprint machines would not be converted or renewed, but rather run to their end, and the resulting cash flow would be used to develop new businesses. UPM thus made a different strategic choice than SE and MG. At that time, the largest ongoing projects were the refining of biofuels in Lappeenranta as a completely new business, and the expansion/diversification of pulp production in the Uruguay project. In addition, Pesonen strongly emphasized UPM’s transformation from a bulk paper producer to a high-tech company. Previously, UPM registered only a few patents a year; in the early 2010s, the number rose, I don’t remember exactly, perhaps 20-fold? Hindsight is, of course, always the best wisdom, and it is clear that innovations in the forest sector will largely continue to depend on political guidance – that is, in practice, whether producers of replaceable products (such as traditional cotton producers in the case of wood-based textile fibers) have to pay for the negative external effects they cause, or not. Politicians often decide for political reasons that they do not have to. In such cases, high-tech solutions from the forest industry cannot compete economically. This has also happened to a very large proportion of forest industry innovations since the early 2010s. I don’t know which year in the early 2010s was referred to here, but in my memory, Pesonen’s view on the future of printing papers was no more optimistic than others’. Surely many expected some kind of recovery, but the depth and permanence of the decline came as a surprise. On the other hand, at the societal level, we expected until about 2020 that the economy would soon enter strong growth after the 2008 crisis, as had always happened before. Now a huge number of people have appeared who, of course, immediately saw that economic growth like before was never going to happen. Hindsight is always easiest.

And now UPM’s current CEO “Metsä-Massimo” has to clean this up                    Maaseudun Tulevaisuus – 8 Dec 25              Kun UPM etsii kannattavuutta papereilleen, metsänomistajat ottavat iskuista...    UPM etsii tuottoja Suomen ulkopuolelta. Se vaikuttaa varmasti myös puunmyyjien asemaan, muistuttaa päätoimittaja Jouni Kemppainen.

In Nordland, the same applies, paper machine 2 remains with UPM, while PM1 and PM4 transfer to the JV.

In that UPM/Sappi arrangement, the same pattern emerges in Kymi. UPM produces pulp, and the new JV makes fine paper next door. Of course, the Kymi pulp mill can also dry its entire production and sell it to the market if local demand were to shrink.
