The name change is a natural step on our strategic jour- ney," said Christoph Michalski, President and CEO at Biller- ud. The name simplification to Billerud will be implement- ed throughout the group immediately. Billerud's website is now called billerud.com, and all employees will have the email address billerud.com. "It is with pride that Billerud will carry its history into the present," added Michalski. "What won’t change is the fact that we help our customers reduce their climate foot- print of both their primary and secondary packaging. For us, product superiority is important and the impressive strength of our papers allow customers to use less pack- aging, save costs and reduce their carbon footprint. We will continue doing that as Billerud." Billerud’s roots and heritage in the forest and paper in- dustry go back more than 150 years and the company has had several different names. The company's starting point is the firm belief that virgin fibers from slow growing North- ern forests make for some of the best performing pack- aging materials, which are transformed into packaging solutions that are not only renewable and sustainable, but that also create value in the form of outstanding product performance and optimized cost efficiency. The company has ten production units in Sweden, USA, and Finland, with around 5,800 employees in over 13 countries and customers in over 100 countries.
