Products and Markets

Our entire existence rests on our customers. We are responsible for ensuring that our products and services are developed to fulfil the highest demands in terms of quality, function, safety and the environment.

Responsible products

BillerudKorsnäs’ packaging material and packaging solutions protect and preserve their contents. The material meets requirements in terms of function and quality for its area of use and is safe to use for humans and the environment. The company’s products are used as packaging materials for food and drink, consumer and luxury goods, medicine and hygiene articles and in industry. Approximately 2/3 are used in packaging that comes into contact with food. These materials are subject to statutory requirements to protect human health and to prevent the material changing the taste, smell or composition of the food.

Functional and climate smart products

BillerudKorsnäs’ packaging material is manufactured from primary fibre based on forest raw materials from certified or controlled sources. The raw materials are renewable, the energy consumption of production is mainly based on biofuel and the end-product can be recycled into other paper products. This material thus offers an environmentally better alternative than products based on oil as a raw material produced using fossil fuel. Packaging that brings environmental improvements is demanded by customers and endconsumers. The right packaging for the right purpose is resource-efficient and has a low environmental impact. BillerudKorsnäs provides specialist services in the choice of materials and smart solutions, thus contributing towards reduced dependence on fossil raw materials.
