NBSK CTMP • Produced by cooking wood chips in white liquor • Produced by grinding wood chips in a refiner • Gives pulp with long, strong fibers • Gives shorter, stiffer fibers that provide absorption capacity, bulk and stiffness to paper products • Possible to bleach to full brightness with no yellowing effect • Not possible to bleach to full brightness • Provides high strength and brightness to paper • Lower consumption of wood per ton pulp products • No energy surplus • Higher consumption of wood per ton pulp • Creates a energy surplus Raw material Pine and spruce (softwood) Both softwood and hardwood 100k tonnes today at Östrand (to be closed) SCA capacity 900k tonnes at Östrand 300k tonnes tomorrow at Ortviken 17
