Our innovations stem from the forest (with subtitles)

Well-maintained commercial forests act as a carbon sink to help mitigate the effects of climate change and provide renewable resources. We source raw material from sustainably-managed forests with legal logging operations, replant all harvested areas and uphold biodiversity.

To take the new steps towards a future beyond fossils, we actively expand and accelerate the use of renewable resources to replace fossil raw materials and advance bio-innovations. An excellent example of this is GrowDex, a biocompatible hydrogel with vast application potential in personalised medicine, and pharmaceutical R&D, even through to 3D printing.
