RESOURCE
EFFICIENCY
IS KEY
Improvements in production
processes help UPM's Steyrermühl
mill in Austria save EUR 1.1 million
a year. The mill has 14 projects in
the works aimed at improving
material efficiency.
UPM's goal is to achieve a
15% decrease in the quantity
of waste water by 2020, and a
20% decrease in the consumption
of chemical oxygen in pulp and
paper production, compared to
the level in 2008. This project is
proceeding so well that the goal
for 2020 was revised and
increased in 2012.
In 2013, our environment-related
investments were
EUR million.
