Investments approved for the Sappi mill in Maastricht
For paper manufacturer Sappi, sustainability and climate protection are of paramount importance and are at the root of a long-term global commitment.

To reduce CO2 emissions, part of the gas-generated steam was replaced by electric steam via the new e-boiler. The electricity used is generated mainly from renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power.
