In our previous episode, we explored how fiber is being used in new and unexpected ways beyond traditional paper production. Today, we’re continuing that story, looking at how the same spirit of innovation is transforming the entire pulp and paper industry. For decades, this sector has quietly been a pioneer in bioenergy and biomaterials. Through its evolution from traditional manufacturing sites into modern, self-sufficient biorefineries - and supported by active, long-term forestry that enables the shift from fossil fuels to sustainable energy - it has become one of the world’s largest producers and users of renewable energy from wood-based residues. But what does this transformation mean for the future of energy, sustainability, and even new revenue opportunities? That’s exactly what we’re exploring in this episode, as we ask: How is the pulp, paper, and fiber industry creating future value through biomass, biofuels, and circular innovation? Joining the discussion are: Gustav Melin, CEO and CFO at Mantex AB Wilson Monteiro, Business Line Manager for Pulp, Paper, and Fibre at ABB Roger Östlin, Head of Sustainable Fuels at SCA and CEO of the SCA–ST1 Follow The Process Automation Podcast wherever you get your podcasts, so you never miss an episode.
