Apple CEO Plants Trees At Iggesund
Iggesund is a good example of a climate-smart com- bine where we feed in forest raw materials and pro- duce bioenergy, paper pulp and paperboard. Major investments over a long time plus a system in balance are a prerequisite for a sustainable value chain. The Iggesund combine binds 0.7 million tons of CO2.” FTA Europe Diamond Awards To Be Held In Milan The FTA Europe Diamond Awards 2018 will be held at the hotel Barceló in Milan,Italy.

Apple’s chief execTim Cook visited Iggesund in Swe- den to discover more about the sustainability work that lies behind the paperboard material Invercote. The manufacturer, Iggesund Paperboard, is part of the Holmen forest industry group and is reportedly at the forefront of sustainability. Present to discuss with Tim Cook were Holmen’s chief executive Hen- rik Sjölund and Iggesund Paperboard’s chief execu- tive Daniel Peltonen. The Holmen Group produces more than 30 million tree seedlings annually to meet Sweden’s legislated requirements for replanting after felling. “A visit to the breathtaking forests of northern Swe- den with @IggesundAB, our partners in innovation and sustainable packaging,” tweeted Cook after his visit to Iggesund. The Apple chief executive also planted his own tree in Iggesund’s forests as he fol- lowed the whole process from forest management to finished packaging. “For Holmen it is self-evident to start with sustain- able forestry,” said Sjölund.“We grow trees with an 80- to 90-year time frame, with the timber being used to build houses. We make the paperboard from pulp- wood from the forest and chips from the sawmill.
