Nordic Paper receives permit to increase production at Bäckhammar mill in Sweden

The Land and Environment Court in Vänersborg has communicated its decision to grant a permit for increased production output at the Nordic Paper plant in Bäckhammar, Sweden. The new permit allows for Nordic Paper to, after investments, increase its production of paper pulp in Bäckhammar by more than 20% and of kraft papers by more than 10%. The company is now going to analyze the details of the permit in order to determine any impact on potential investment alternatives.
